A review of the 98-key Bulgari Hotel Tokyo, from its 40th-floor lobby and massive deluxe room to the spa, pool and gym, plus how to book it for extra perks.
Glad you loved it. This was one of my favorite hotel stays ever. The staff really were terrific and it was the little things that really stood out. Not sure about you but the "gifts" at turndown each night were different and so lovely and thoughtful. I'd also note that it's not just close to the train station - it's actually connected underground via the shopping center and they offer a complimentary meet and greet service (in either direction) for all guests. It poured our departure day and having someone walk us through (all the way to the train) was so helpful as it is quite a maze.
"I will say, the area immediately around the hotel isn’t necessarily that charming, but that’s often a reality of being in a really central location." This is true of most of the best hotels in Tokyo... There are a few in more fun areas, but I've acknowledged at this point that it's just a fact of staying there. Hope to go back one day!
Looks like a beautiful property BUT a no go for me. I am not spending over $1200 a night for a room without a comfortable sofa and a proper work area. I sometimes wonder if these designers actually ever stay in hotel rooms on a regular basis.

Bvlgari looks must nicer and better than Bulgari.
Instead I'm just reading about a luxurious marinated Korean beef hotel.
“maybe it’s a hot take, but I think Aman Tokyo is sort of overrated at this point” Yowzers!
Bulgari Tokyo definitely looks nice and would like to stay there someday, but… the rooms don’t have an in-room personal onsen overlooking Tokyo, so… 😉
Um, think Ill stick to Park Hyatt when in Tokyo. Even if it was 75k points, at least you could use a suite upgrade. $1,200USD++ cash prices are ridiculous, especially given the current weakness of the yen.
Fabulous place, but the room decor/layout is a let down. Everything else, top-notch. Pricey though, lol.
The turndown service features a tag saying "Savage Garden" . I knew a girl who had that .
