Of all the properties on this list, Mandarin Oriental Tokyo is my only repeat stay to date, though this was my first time visiting its spa. It won’t be my last, either. You know that feeling when you see a restaurant menu with way too many good options? How do you pick just one? That’s the feeling of choosing something from Mandarin Oriental Tokyo’s spa—they cover hands, feet, facials, dry massage, oil treatments, body scrubs, power naps and more. I’d even suggest you let their team choose a solution for you, based on the assessment.
I got an outstanding “Kiatsu" treatment that combines shiatsu and Thai methods, following a soak in their water lounge areas and a reset in their skyline-view sauna. You can even book a stay based entirely around a wellness agenda, from sleep support to holistic centering. I have to give a shout-out to their world-class dining options too, from the playful and inventive Tapas Molecular Bar, to Cantonese and French fine dining, to the exclusive Pizza Bar for Tokyo’s best slice.
