Best Hotels in Tokyo for Every Budget

Fuelled by the promise of millions of travellers for the 2020 Olympics, Tokyo’s hotel scene has continued to thrive despite the Games that never were. In fact, it’s challenging to find another major metropolitan center in the world that’s producing new accommodations across all budgets with as much fervor as Japan’s capital. Both local and international investors are constructing new rooms so swiftly that several brands are opening multiple flagship locations within the city limits. One particularly anticipated opening is Janu Tokyo, a spin-off brand by Aman, alongside the completed renovation of the legendary Park Hyatt Tokyo.

The demand for accommodations in Tokyo continues to outpace supply. The Land of the Rising Sun has emerged as a hotspot for travel in our post-pandemic era, with Tokyo at its epicenter, made even more attractive by the significant decline of the yen. While food, attractions, and souvenirs feel remarkably affordable, hotels in Tokyo have been recalibrated to cater to foreign wallets; the average price for a five-star property has effortlessly risen beyond £700 a night. However, there are still excellent options available in the mid-range and budget categories, featuring sleek, ultra-clean rooms conveniently located throughout the city’s major hubs. Here are the best hotels in Tokyo for every budget.
