In review 5042 of hotel shaving kits, a long neglected and under appreciated amenity I am giving the Edition a 5 which means you can safely use it to shave a 5 day stubble. 3 blade razor with lanolin strip and nice cream. Oh and the hotel rooms are amazing too.
Unique and luxurious boutique hotel, with a buzzy vibe and eye-catching ambiance. The views of the Tokyo Tower will stun locals and visitors alike, and the modern amenities and room appointments will suit even the most fastidious of travelers. Opened in October 2020, the spaces still feel especially fresh and new - and the mix of customers ranges from hip scene-hunting locals and influencers, to families looking for a high-end experience all around. If you read no further, know this is a must-stay hotel in Tokyo. It was a cheekier version of The RC - approachable but luxe. My family and I stayed just two nights, over the New Years holiday week - looking for a special “staycation” experience in our hometown. Wow. The Edition’s beautiful lobby embodies the exact words of it’s architect: a frame of nature. I’ve never seen such a space! The bountiful foliage is expertly maintained, and each unique seating area is exquisitely designed (from furs/pillows/blankets on couches, to rich wood tables with intricate tealights and flowers - like you’ve just walked into a wealthy friend’s insanely decorated home.) The maintenance alone of this space is proof that the operations team is on their game. Walk closer to the window and you’ll recognize why everyone has their camera out - the Tokyo Bay and Tower just a few blocks away are mesmerizing. While check-in was slower than expected, the team working the front desk and lobby were beyond polite and helpful. The rooms are modern, spacious - and white. All elevating the experience to feel fresh, new, and like you’re the first person to use the space. The elegant wood paneling evokes Japanese design mixed with some sexy function, allowing you to peek between the bathroom and sleeping areas. Le Labo NYC products are generous (and fragrant), and together weave the scent story of the entire hotel. We ordered room service (wine and dessert) and it was prompt, delicious, and it’s tough to deliver ice cream without it melting! Our dinner the first night was set-up by the concierge at our request: yakiniku. Not only did this wonderful woman make calls on our behalf to obtain a reservation last minute, but she walked with us all the way to the street level from the hotel. I say this because this included at least 5 minutes outside, and in nearly 0 degree temperatures. Completely unnecessary, but so thoughtful to ensure we wouldn’t get lost on our way. Breakfast service in the Blue Room was a delight. The service was attentive (our server had fresh coffees at the ready before we even asked), and thoughtful in presentation. A limited menu was executed perfectly, well-timed coursing and more than ample portions. In particular, the kids raved about their waffles and pancakes for days after (I feel like the fresh whipped cream may have been a positive factor). Glassware was intentionally selected, and my mimosa was served icy cold. The pool is small, but beautifully maintained. It requires advance reservations (covid-related restriction), and it’s a popular amenity so do your best to book early! We were a little disappointed to learn of this fact after we were suited up and ready to swim, but when we brought this to the hotel’s attention directly - they were extremely apologetic and we had no further issues. Given the reservation system, you get the pool all to yourself once you arrive which turned out to be a lovely treat afterall. The spa is exquisite. My husband and I booked shared services, and had a large room for his massage and my facial. A customary foot wash was performed prior to each service. Days later my skin still feels like perfection, and my husband couldn’t stop talking about his massage. We felt like the only guests in the spa at the time, even though I’m sure this wasn’t the case. We never once felt rushed or like we needed to do anything but fully relax and soak it all in. I’ve spent years of my life in hotels, and can tell you that this one makes the top 10.…
Excellent staycation at the Tokyo Edition. Beautiful, clean aesthetic, excellent service. We were upgraded to a premier king with a great view of the skyline and imperial garden and received personal service from the management team. We were celebrating my partner’s birthday and the local team went above and beyond in decorating our room for the occasion and providing a thoughtful birthday amenity. Great pool, bar / lounge and set Western breakfast that was amazing. Highly recommend.
Had a great stay at the Edition. From the warm welcome by Sayaka san and Ikuko san when we arrived at the hotel to the superb room. I arrived too late to try their restaurant for dinner but i had very delicious desserts with Room Service. Breakfast and lunch at the bar were also very pleasant despite the hotel being very busy. Thank you to Akon san, Yoshiki san, Saito san, Wakana san and Hoshi san for their care. We will definitely be back!
We had a wonderful family staycation at the edition this past weekend. Anshul and his team took care of everything we needed to celebrate my husbands 40th birthday. He made sure we had the perfect room to have our room service dinner celebration and also the private dining room for lunch the next day. We had a couple friends join us for lunch and they made sure that all seats were 6 feet apart, socially distanced and everyone felt safe. On top of it all, the food was fabulous and service was excellent. Thank you again to the edition for helping us plan a perfect covid safe birthday!
Had Brunch on a Sunday there - was a fantastic experience. Relaxing atmosphere, contemporary yet slightly extravagant interiors, extra attentive staff, and the food was plenty and soooo yummy. Will definitely go there again.
