Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo offers a masterful mix of style, elegance and prestige
Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo brings the contemporary Italian style and storied heritage of Bvlgari to the Japanese capital. Among the top hotels in Tokyo for luxury and elegance, the hotel occupies the 40th to 45th floors of the Tokyo Midtown Yaesu skyscraper in a central location that sees it within walking distance of famous attractions like the Imperial Palace, the vibrant shopping enclaves of Nihombashi and Ginza, and Tokyo Station – the country’s largest train station – offering ease of travel around the city and beyond.
The first Bvlgari hotel in Japan, Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo is one of a few select properties in major cities and luxury resort destinations worldwide which make up Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts. These are magnificent properties that convey the excitement, glamour and prestige of the Bvlgari brand.
Opened in 2023, Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo was named in 22nd spot on The World’s 50 Best Hotels 2024 list and earned the Nikka Best New Hotel Award 2024, which honours the highest ranked hotel on the list that opened within the 18-month voting period. It also received a Three Key distinction – the highest – in the 2024 Michelin Guide.
The hotel features 98 exquisite rooms and suites, along with Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts’ signature dining and bespoke experiences – the Michelin-starred Il Ristorante – Niko Romito, Sushi Hōseki, The Bvlgari Bar, The Bvlgari Lounge and The Bvlgari Spa. Adding further elements to the ‘seamless luxury experience’ on offer to guests, the hotel also has unpacking and packing services tailored to each guest’s needs, and arrangements can be made for a barber, tailor or shoeshine.
The original and contemporary design of Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo is one that follows the Bvlgari Hotel tradition while at the same time pays tribute to Japan’s refined sensibility and accomplished craftsmanship. Weaving together the traditions and cultures of Rome and Tokyo, this design is evident throughout the public areas and guestrooms.
The Art Of Elegant Accommodation
The guestrooms at Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo feature a residential and welcoming atmosphere that blends elements of the Bvlgari brand spirit with the local Japanese culture. Framed images of vintage Bvlgari advertising from the Bvlgari photo archive adorn the walls and the bedside lamps are inspired by a Bvlgari silver candleholder, while the bedspreads are produced by ancient kimono textiles producer Hosoo and dark stained oak furniture is made by Fukuoka historical handcrafted wood furniture factory Ritzwell.
Italian-designed furniture is also a feature, the walls are covered with silk and elm timber boiserie, and a Japanese-style sliding door with vertical fins leads to a bathroom made of black granite and exclusive Axor tapware.
Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo’s guestrooms afford fantastic views of Tokyo through a full length glass facade, and are appointed with Bvlgari Hotels & Resorts amenities, a mini bar with Niko Romito snacks and organic teas from KITANO CHAEN.
The different room categories available are: Superior Room; Deluxe Room, Skyline View; Premium Room, Imperial Garden View; Junior Suite; Superior Suite; Deluxe Corner Suite; Premium Suite; and Bvlgari Suite.
Comprising two separate areas, the suites feature a bedroom and living room, the walls of which boast vintage art photography representing Bvlgari jewellery and silk tapestries, and the ceiling is hand-brushed matte gold. The bathroom is decorated with Gaya vases reproducing patterns inspired by ancient Japanese kimono fabrics.
The Bvlgari Suite on a corner of the 44th floor is among the largest in Tokyo, with a living room offering four different seating areas, dining room for 10 people with dedicated kitchen and private bar corner, private office, bedroom with master bathroom, and private gym.
Exquisite Dining
Dining at Bvlgari Hotel Tokyo is an exquisite affair, with two restaurants on offer – the One Michelin star Il Ristorante – Niko Romito and Sushi Hōseki – and The Bvlgari Bar and The Bvlgari Lounge.
Il Ristorante – Niko Romito
Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, Il Ristorante – Niko Romito features Japanese design elements such as a curved wood ceiling, while the menu is classic chef Niko with its contemporary expression of authentic Italian cuisine.

Sushi Hōseki
Open for dinner and – on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday – lunch, this traditional Japanese sushi bar is an omakase experience devoted to the art of Japanese dining.
