The Bulgari Hotel Tokyo is a compact lodge that is home to 98 rooms and rests between the 40th and 45th stories of the iconic Tokyo Midtown Yaesu skyscraper right in the middle of the capital. The interior design is the perfect fusion of Italian and Japanese themes as the design language draws elements from both cultures down to its stone mason, carpentry, and many other intricate details that were considered.
The Roman themes are highlighted by the old tradition of outdoor dining as it features multiple terraces and a warm tonal palette of tangerine and saffron. At the rooftop Bulgari Bar, there are details of Japanese yuzu trees that are along the east side with Italian lemon trees on the west.
