The Park Hyatt Tokyo is currently the tallest hotel in Tokyo, occupying the top 14 floors (39th-52nd) of the 235-meter Shinjuku Park Tower. This iconic hotel sits at the peak of what was Tokyo's second-tallest building when completed in 1994.

Current Tallest Hotels

The Park Hyatt Tokyo features 178 rooms starting from the 39th floor, with spectacular views of Mount Fuji, Tokyo Bay, and the city skyline. The hotel gained international fame as the primary setting for Sofia Coppola's film "Lost in Translation". Its 52nd-floor New York Grill & Bar sits at the building's crown, offering some of the highest dining views in the city.

Other high-elevation luxury hotels in Tokyo include the Ritz-Carlton Tokyo, which occupies the top nine floors (45th-53rd) of the 53-story Midtown Tower in Roppongi, and the Conrad Tokyo, located on the top nine floors of the 173-meter Tokyo Shiodome Building.

Future Development

In 2028, a Dorchester Collection hotel will open in the Torch Tower and become Japan's tallest hotel. Located on floors 53-58 (approximately 300+ meters high) of the 390-meter Torch Tower near Tokyo Station, this will be the luxury brand's first property in Asia.

The Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower is the tallest building in Tokyo overall, standing at 325 meters (1,068 feet) with 64 floors, completed in 2023. This mixed-use development in Minato Ward includes residential, office, and retail space, making it Tokyo's first and only supertall skyscraper (buildings exceeding 300 meters).

While not a hotel building per se, the Mori JP Tower does include some hospitality components—the adjacent Residence A tower within the Azabudai Hills complex features a luxury hotel alongside 320 apartments.

Tokyo's Tallest Structures vs. Buildings

It's important to distinguish between Tokyo's tallest structures and tallest buildings. The Tokyo Skytree (634 meters) is the tallest structure in Tokyo and third-tallest in the world, but it is a broadcasting and observation tower, not a building. The Tokyo Tower (333 meters) is similarly a steel lattice tower completed in 1958, ranking second among structures.

Hotels in Tokyo's Tallest Buildings

Among dedicated hotel properties, the Ritz-Carlton Tokyo occupies floors 45-53 of Tokyo Midtown's Midtown Tower, a 248-meter tall building in Akasaka. This was previously described as one of Tokyo's tallest buildings, though it is now surpassed by the Azabudai Hills Mori JP Tower.

The Park Hyatt Tokyo, located on floors 39-52 of the 235-meter Shinjuku Park Tower, remains one of Tokyo's highest-elevation hotels by floor number.

Future Development

The Torch Tower (390 meters/1,280 feet) is under construction and scheduled for completion in 2028, which will surpass all current buildings in Tokyo and become Japan's tallest building. The Dorchester Collection will operate a luxury hotel on the upper floors (53-58) of this structure, making it the tallest hotel in Tokyo upon completion.

Sky-High Luxury

Tokyo's tallest hotels offer more than just rooms—they provide experiences suspended hundreds of meters above the city, where Mount Fuji views meet world-class hospitality. Whether you choose the film-famous Park Hyatt or await the record-breaking Dorchester Collection, staying in Tokyo's clouds promises unforgettable perspectives on this vertical metropolis.
