THE VIEW FROM THE TOP
The Conrad Tokyo overlooks Tokyo Bay... from a glass-walled pool 29 floors up.
Sure, the views over Tokyo Bay from the jazz bar on the 28th floor of the Conrad Tokyo are good, but from the glass-walled Sumie-style pool (the only one in Japan) one story above, they’re breathtaking. Located in downtown Tokyo, in the Shiodome area that’s crammed full of skyscrapers and elevated walkways, this 290-room hotel manages to feel intimate by featuring luxurious extras that would rival any 20-room boutique establishment. A glass wall separates the bathroom from the bedroom, which is furnished with a white leather Eames chair, exotic zebrawood console, suede window chaise lounges, and ridiculously high thread count sheets. And while you may not be able to hang cherry blossoms from your light fitting, or take a flower arranging class, à la Scarlett in Lost in Translation, you might be tempted to listen to Air on your iPod as you decide which of the Conrad’s four restaurants to dine in.
