Aman is opening the world's first hotel under its sister brand, JANU, in Tokyo's Azabudai Hills. With 122 spacious guest rooms, diverse dining experiences, and Tokyo's largest wellness facilities, it promises a vibrant stay. Reservations are now open, with stays available from March 2024.

Janu, meaning 'soul' in Sanskrit, is the sister brand to Aman, which operates resorts and hotels worldwide. Its first hotel, Janu Tokyo, opens in Residence A of Azabudai Hills, a location that fosters a close connection with nature, culture, and art.

Azabudai Hills boasts Japan's tallest skyscraper, approximately 24,000 square meters of lush greenery, offices, residences, an international school, galleries, luxury boutiques, dining establishments, and a high-end food market focusing on Japanese ingredients. Within this vibrant complex, Janu Tokyo, the sole hotel, is designed by the visionary team at Perry Clark Perry Architects. It features 122 guest rooms bathed in natural light, eight restaurants and bars, and an expansive wellness and spa facility, Janu Wellness, covering nearly 4,000 square meters, making it one of Tokyo's largest.

Janu Wellness includes a gym of approximately 340 square meters, among the largest in Tokyo, along with five movement studios for group exercises like boxing and spinning. It is fully equipped with facilities for training, recovery, and relaxation. The spacious hydrotherapy and thermal area features a 25-meter heated pool and a separate lounge pool. Adjacent are private spa houses with hammams (Turkish baths) and ban'yas (Russian baths), each with cold and warm plunge pools, as well as nine treatment rooms and a recovery studio with a hyperbaric therapy chamber. These facilities are exclusively available to hotel guests and members of the Janu Tokyo Wellness Collective. Members also have access to a dedicated members' lounge.

The hotel houses eight restaurants and bars. Janu Mercato, an all-day dining venue celebrating Italy's rich culinary heritage, offers a live kitchen for pasta and seafood, a counter for cheese and charcuterie, and dining areas with natural light, as well as terrace seating overlooking the Azabudai Hills courtyard.

The adjacent Janu Patisserie offers a selection of European-inspired pastries and baked goods, along with fresh seasonal desserts like parfaits, and also provides takeaway options.

Other dining options include Iigura, an Edomae sushi restaurant upholding tradition; SUMI, offering contemporary charcoal-grilled dishes paired with premium wines and sake; Janu Grill, featuring a spectacular live kitchen and wine cellar; Hu-Ging, a Chinese restaurant that honors authentic flavors while incorporating Cantonese techniques for a contemporary menu; Janu Lounge & Garden Terrace, serving afternoon tea and light fare; and Janu Bar, a sophisticated space for craft cocktails.

The hotel's 122 guest rooms are located on floors 6 through 13. All accommodations, including guest rooms and suites, offer a minimum space of 55 square meters. Each room features a spacious bathroom with a double vanity, rain shower, and custom bathtub, along with a double closet and a living area.

The timeless design blends Asian-inspired interiors with contemporary European elements. Many rooms include a private balcony offering views of the city skyline or the surrounding greenery. The Corner Suite and Tower View Suite provide dual-aspect vistas through distinctive windows.

The hotel's largest accommodation, the Janu Suite, spans 284 square meters, creating a luxurious ambiance. It features two private balconies, a modern kitchen with a counter, a dining table for up to six guests, a separate study and library, and a lounge, offering a truly home-like experience. When connected with adjacent suites, the Janu Suite can expand to a total of 519 square meters, making it the largest suite configuration in a luxury hotel in Tokyo.
