"Top-floor rooftop bar, Tokyo skyline 360°, solo trip with a 51st-floor view."
Andaz Tokyo Toranomon Hills opened in 2014 on floors 47 through 52 of the Toranomon Hills Mori Tower. Tony Chi designed the interiors in washi paper, indigo cotton, and dark wood, and the 51st-floor lobby is the most cinematic arrival in the Toranomon-Hills cluster. One hundred and sixty-four rooms, the upper tier with floor-to-ceiling glass and a Mount-Fuji-direction view on a clear winter morning. The Andaz Tavern handles the dining, the 52nd-floor Rooftop Bar the evening drink, and the Pool and Spa on the 37th floor the morning swim. Andaz Tokyo is the right pick for the solo retreat at a more accessible price point than Aman or Bulgari, its strongest card being the Toranomon-Hills district itself, the Mori Art Museum a 15-minute walk, the Roppongi Hills cluster nearby, and Hyatt loyalty value for points-earning solo travellers. The honest con: this is a high floor in a mixed-use office tower, so the ground-level arrival lacks the hushed sense of place a standalone palace hotel gives you.
Andaz Suite (the multi-room flagship) or Andaz Large King for the corner-suite product.
The Rooftop Bar at 6.30pm has the strongest 360° Tokyo skyline view in central Tokyo. Use the 37th-floor pool at 7am for the morning recovery, empty until 8am. The Andaz brand's complimentary minibar is genuinely complimentary.
Andaz Tokyo Toranomon Hills sits within our broader Top 20 Hotels in Tokyo for a Solo Retreat list. It scored an aggregate 9.5/10 across the three editorial criteria, competitive against the field but, on a solo retreat-specific factors, the angle above is what earned its rank. For the alternatives in the same Tokyo neighbourhood, see Toranomon and adjacent. For a different city entirely, see the related lists below.
If you have already chosen the dates, our editor recommends booking the room twelve weeks ahead. Expect the best-positioned suites to go early; in the busy season the lead time is months, not weeks. The plunge-pool and terrace suites, the categories that justify this ranking, tend to sell out before anything else.
