Fairmont Hotels & Resorts officially made its grand debut in Japan with the unveiling of Fairmont Tokyo
On July 1, 2025, Fairmont Hotels & Resorts officially made its grand debut in Japan with the unveiling of Fairmont Tokyo, and honestly? It’s giving everything—charm, elegance, and views that leave you breathless.
Located in the buzzing new BLUE FRONT SHIBAURA Tower South, this towering urban sanctuary (floors 35 to 43, no less) is a 13-minute breeze from Haneda Airport, offering direct access to both Tokyo and Shinagawa Stations. Translation: convenient meets chic.
Serene Views, Signature Sips & Sky-High Style
From the moment guests step into the lush 35th-floor lobby—yes, you read that right—they’re greeted by Serene, the in-house Labrador and official Chief Happiness Officer. She sets the tone for what feels more like a sanctuary than a hotel.
The design? Stunning. Think floor-to-ceiling windows, green-filled lounges, and terraces with sweeping views of Tokyo Bay and Tokyo Tower. But the real magic? It’s in the curated experiences.
Dining That Deserves Its Own Itinerary
Let’s talk food. Fairmont Tokyo is home to seven dining and drinking venues—and trust, you’ll want to hit all of them. From Kiln & Tonic’s wood-fired pizzas to DRIFTWOOD’s stylish take on Yoshoku cuisine, each space is a passport to flavour. Meanwhile, Vue Mer is your go-to for café culture with French-Japanese flair, and OFF RECORD? A hidden listening bar with rare spirits, vinyl, and serious Tokyo cool.
Add in elevated street food at Yoi to Yoi and creative teppanyaki at Totsuji, and suddenly, you’re on a culinary tour without leaving the building.
Wellness Meets Wow Factor
The 35th-floor Fairmont Spa and Health Club is more than just a gym—it’s an escape. The infinity pool glistens under natural light, while saunas, a sundeck, and signature spa treatments use local ingredients and oils that ground you in the city’s soul.
For those who crave movement, the gym is fitted with Technogym equipment, free weights, and two spacious studios. We love a fitness facility that doesn’t feel like a fluorescent torture chamber.
Suites With Soul & A Side of Sky
Fairmont Tokyo boasts 217 rooms, including 29 suites that are anything but ordinary. Ranging from 52 to 278 sqm, they’re designed by BAR Studio with elegance and intention. Every suite? A panoramic art piece. And if you’re booking Fairmont Gold, expect VIP-level attention with private check-in, turndown rituals, and lounge access with city views that steal the show.
The Fairmont Way
Fairmont Tokyo isn’t just a hotel. It’s a destination-within-a-destination, blending luxury with local artistry, skyline views with soulful touches. Whether you’re sipping highballs at sunset or unwinding in your suite’s engawa-inspired corner, this is Tokyo at its most elevated—and most inviting.
