Wellness offerings include a heated outdoor pool surrounded by skyscrapers, a modern fitness center, serene treatment rooms, and easy access to leafy walking paths weaving through Ark Hills.

What you didn't know about ANA InterContinental Tokyo.
ANA InterContinental Tokyo sits in a district shaped by Japan's political evolution, diplomatic influence, artistic creativity, and some of the city's most forward-thinking urban developments, making its location one of the most historically and culturally significant in modern Tokyo.
The hotel anchors Ark Hills, Japan's first major mixed-use redevelopment project, completed in the 1980s as a visionary experiment blending offices, residences, art spaces, green terraces, concert halls, and international infrastructure. Before this transformation, the region was historically tied to the samurai estates and government bureaus of the Edo and Meiji eras, later transitioning into a diplomatic zone filled with embassies and institutions that shaped Japan's early relationship with the global community. Ark Hills introduced the concept of urban “hills”, Roppongi Hills, Toranomon Hills, and Azabudai Hills all exist because this development proved that Tokyo could seamlessly merge living, culture, architecture, and commerce. Nearby landmarks reflect these layers: Suntory Hall, one of the world's premier classical music venues; ANA's aviation influence reflected in the building's identity; Japan's political center in Nagatacho; the traditional slopes and hidden shrines of Akasaka; and Roppongi's modern artistic revolution anchored by the Mori Art Museum, The National Art Center Tokyo, and 21_21 Design Sight. ANA InterContinental Tokyo weaves these histories into its design: contemporary geometric motifs recalling Tokyo's high-rise architecture, warm materials nodding to traditional Japanese craftsmanship, international artwork honoring the multicultural nature of the district, and service that blends global luxury with omotenashi, the Japanese philosophy of heartfelt, anticipatory hospitality. The building stands at a crossroads where Japan's political direction, international diplomacy, creative expression, and modern city planning converge, positioning the hotel as both participant and witness to Tokyo's ongoing evolution.
How to fold ANA InterContinental Tokyo into your trip.
ANA InterContinental Tokyo becomes the polished, panoramic anchor of your Tokyo journey, the place where mornings begin with golden light over Tokyo Tower, afternoons unfold through culture and cuisine, and evenings soften into skyline glow, refined dining, and quiet urban calm.
Wake to soft daylight spilling across skyscrapers and Tokyo Tower rising like a warm ember against the sky. Enjoy breakfast shaped by Japanese seasonality and global finesse, fresh pastries, delicate Japanese plates, steaming miso soups, fruits at peak ripeness, perfectly cooked eggs, artisanal breads, and rich coffee poured with precision. Step outside into Ark Hills' terraced walkways and continue through the surrounding neighborhoods: stroll toward the atmospheric streets of Akasaka filled with shrines, cafés, and small eateries; walk to Roppongi for cutting-edge museums and architectural icons; or explore the political heart of Nagatacho with its imposing government buildings and tree-lined promenades. Return midday to your room for rest: draw a bath in your marble bathroom, stretch out on plush bedding, sip tea beside your window, or visit the Club InterContinental Lounge for a quiet moment above the city. In the afternoon, explore Tokyo's cultural core, visit the Mori Art Museum high above Roppongi Hills, browse exhibitions at The National Art Center Tokyo, or wander into Midtown's gardens and design stores. For shopping, head to nearby Ginza for flagship boutiques and curated craftsmanship. For a peaceful escape, walk through the tranquil gardens of the Imperial Palace or Hie Shrine's iconic red torii tunnels. As evening approaches, return to the hotel to watch the skyline shift into twilight: windows glowing amber, Tokyo Tower igniting in warm orange, and the city coming alive with night. Enjoy cocktails in one of the hotel's sophisticated bars, then choose between its extraordinary dining options, refined Japanese recipes shaped by master chefs, elevated international kitchens, decadent buffets, or elegant multi-course menus that reflect Tokyo's global palate. For a night out, step into Roppongi's vibrant nightlife scene or enjoy a classical performance at neighboring Suntory Hall. Return to ANA InterContinental Tokyo for one final moment of calm, dim your lights, settle into your bed, and watch the city's glow flicker like a constellation outside your window. Couples will feel the romance of high-rise intimacy; solo travelers will appreciate the safety and effortless access; business travelers will find seamless convenience; and design-minded guests will savor the blend of global polish and Japanese sensibility. ANA InterContinental Tokyo doesn't just accompany your trip, it becomes the luminous, cosmopolitan, beautifully centered soul of it.
