ANA InterContinental Tokyo

Unmatched Hospitality What a wonderful oasis in buzzing Tokyo. Club Level offers great afternoon tea and much more. Hosts are extremely forthcoming: Ms. Ann and Mr. Philippe - thank you for your most warm and charming hospitality always going the extra mile. Views and pool second to none. Must stay.

ANA InterContinental Tokyo (Club Lounge Access Included) Location: Akasaka district – convenient for exploring Tokyo, close to Tokyo Tower and Roppongi, and directly connected to the subway. For those who enjoy a comfortable stay, spending more time in the hotel while still having easy access to sightseeing, this property is a great choice. As an IHG One Rewards Diamond Ambassador, I booked a Classic Room but was upgraded to a 1 King Classic High Floor. Room: 1 King Classic High Floor The room is spacious, decorated in a modern style with subtle Japanese touches. Quiet and airy, with a perfectly soft king-sized bed. The window opens to a panoramic Tokyo cityscape view – stunning at night! The bathroom features a bathtub with separate wet and dry zones. Amenities are by Byredo, giving a premium and elegant feel with every detail. - Club InterContinental Lounge (35th Floor) - Afternoon Tea (14:30–16:30) A relaxing experience with Japanese–European sweets and savories such as fruit cakes, mousse, tarts, and wagashi, paired with sencha, black tea, or freshly brewed coffee. The lounge offers a peaceful atmosphere and spectacular 35th-floor views. Evening Cocktail (17:00–19:00) Forget the idea of a “standard” club lounge cocktail hour – ANA InterContinental Tokyo goes above and beyond! The offerings include: A full buffet of hot and cold dishes A dessert spread À la carte hot dishes, freshly prepared and served by staff And most impressively, Moët & Chandon Champagne – one of the few InterContinentals that still serve it (the only two I’ve experienced are here and InterContinental London Park Lane). This isn’t just a lounge snack – it’s a complete dinner experience, premium quality, filling, and satisfying enough that you won’t even need to dine out afterward. (Yes – in Japan, it’s possible to just stay in the hotel!) Breakfast at Cascade Café An excellent international buffet with outstanding quality and variety: Fresh sushi, prepared continuously Seafood Bowl (Kaisendon) station with unlimited Japanese rice, sashimi, and ikura Endless tuna sashimi refills Authentic Japanese dishes like mentaiko (cod roe), chawanmushi, and large clam soup Full Western corner with pastries, eggs, and cold cuts Wide selection of fresh juices and fruits Overall ANA InterContinental Tokyo upholds world-class luxury standards in service, location, views, dining, and its exceptional Club Lounge – which I consider among the best in Tokyo. Champagne that’s truly served (not just advertised), premium food, and incredible value for Diamond Ambassadors. It’s a hotel that left me deeply impressed and one I won’t soon forget.

Stayed in a Mizu Suite which had a king bed and a fold out for our older child. The room was spacious and everything really clean and modern. The shower and bathroom setup was very nice. With our room we had Club access and the club on Level 35 was very nice to have breakfast at and also some late evening canapes and a drink. Would definitely return to stay again with family.

We booked this hotel mainly due to the pool so we could have some relaxation at the end of a 3 week trip. We pictured some relaxing afternoons or even lunch by the pool. Unfortunately what we did not know is that the hotel opens the pool to the public for a fee and it was mostly inundated by people paying for day passes. And it was absolute chaos! Overcrowded beyond anything we imagined. The change rooms were filthy with mountains of shoes at the entrance. There were no sun lounges available for almost the whole day. The pool had barely a square inch free. It was absolutely packed, beyond anything we have experienced in busy hotels pools in the past. And then someone walks around ringing a bell telling people their paid session is over and it’s time for the next wave of people to come in! Hardly a recipe for a relaxing environment. What are the hotel team thinking ?! Make no mistake, this is NOT a hotel pool. This is a public pool that hotel guests can use if they are savvy enough to find a spare corner. What an incredibly disappointing stay. We still used the pool for a quick dip to cool down but got in and out as quickly as possible because it was pretty unbearable. Never have we experienced anything like this. I think it really undervalues guests, particularly when we had paid a premium for lounge access, in the hope of having a really enjoyable stay. Is the revenue from opening the pool up so lucrative that it’s worth devaluing your guests’ experience? We will not stay again.

I stayed at this hotel for four nights and found the location very convenient. The rooms were spotlessly clean, and the bedding was extremely comfortable. The breakfast buffet was exceptional, offering a wide variety of delicious options to choose from. The front desk staff were welcoming and very helpful. I would definitely return.
