The Capitol Hotel Tokyu

AsiaAsia / Japan

The Capitol Hotel Tokyu is a refined luxury hotel in Tokyo’s Nagatachō/Akasaka area, perched beside the historic Hie Shrine. Designed by architect Kengo Kuma, it blends contemporary elegance with traditional Japanese aesthetics — light wood, shoji screens, and natural textures. The hotel has about 251 spacious rooms (many over 45 m²), a 20-m indoor pool, gym, spa, and several dining venues ranging from Japanese to Chinese cuisine. It feels like a peaceful, verdant oasis in the heart of Tokyo’s political and business district.
