Elite Traveler Summer 2019

Aman Suite AMAN TOKYO

For a traditional Japanese experience with ultra-luxurious, five-star amenities and service, head straight to Aman Tokyo. From the moment the elevators open into the soaring lobby at the top of Otemachi Tower in the financial district, a sense of calm washes over you. That calm continues in your sanctuary, the Aman Suite. The minimalist decor is almost entirely outfitted in light wood, from the floors to the walls and the furniture, punctuated only with gray stone and white washi paper. It’s an incredibly soothing environment that invites relaxation and contemplation. Even the views are calming. The enormous metropolis feels almost small from suite; it positively towers over the skyscrapers that dominate the city skyline. There’s a strong emphasis on wellness in all Aman properties, and this one is no different. Despite the hotel’s small size (it has just 84 rooms over six floors), it has the city’s largest spa, which spans nearly 27,000 sq ft and offers dedicated yoga and Pilates studios, traditional Japanese hot baths, a 98-ft pool, well- equipped fitness center and eight treatment rooms offering a wide array of therapies, including traditional Japanese treatments. The wellness theme continues in the suite: There’s an enormous traditional furo soaking tub from which you can enjoy sensational city views. Japanese journeys Learn the ancient art of iaido , a Japanese martial art focused on sword training, in a private class. Your instructor will teach you how to unsheathe a sword in a smooth and restrained way, as well as illuminate the spirit and etiquette of the samurai.
