Hoshino Resorts OMO5 Tokyo Otsuka<\/a><\/h2>\nMany Japanese hotel rooms are small, but with the sleek design of OMO5, which allows you both a work space and loft bed, you won\u2019t be counting square feet. You\u2019ll also be encouraged to mingle, thanks to its relaxed lobby, and complimentary one-hour walking tour where local guides (\u201crangers\u201d) will show you the best places to eat, drink, soak in local culture, and party.<\/p>\n

ARTIST HOTEL – BnA HOTEL Koenji<\/a><\/h2>\nYes, art hotels are a dime a dozen, but this two-room haven is actually designed by local Japanese artists\u2014and they actually earn money every time their creation is booked for the night. Enjoy their bright swirls (each room both in Tokyo and their Akihabara location is unique) and then join them in the attached bar for a drink. Bonus: This isn\u2019t just an exercise in art chic\u2014a gang of USB ports, oversized bed, and washer-dryer are on hand for your convenience.<\/p>\n

HOSHINOYA Tokyo<\/a><\/h2>\nIn Japan, bathing culture is extremely important\u2014and devotees claim it can cure a WebMD-worth of illnesses. HOSHINOYA is Tokyo\u2019s first luxury ryokan\u2014an onsen-oriented hotel where you can bathe in natural hot spring water, walk in slipper-clad feet across tatami floors, and dine on traditional rice balls and green tea, all without sacrificing access to flat-screen televisions, WIFI, or an impeccably bilingual staff.<\/p>\n

Hotel Gracery Shinjuku<\/a><\/h2>\nYes, we\u2019re sure Hotel Gracery is a high-end hotel with many amenities. Plus, it\u2019s located in Shinjuku, one of Tokyo\u2019s most central and vibrant neighborhoods. But we\u2019re too busy surviving its hourly Godzilla attacks to investigate. Every hour during the day, the Godzilla head located on the roof bursts into action, screaming and spitting steam, threatening to huff, puff, and basically tear the whole hotel down. (Hasn\u2019t happened yet\u2014but we\u2019re dedicated to checking back.) Wanna really experience the famous monster\u2019s attack? For added verisimilitude, book one of the hotel\u2019s Godzilla view rooms, which promises a super-secret bonus experience.<\/p>\n
