JW Marriott Hotel Tokyo rises above TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY, one minute on foot from the station. Its guest rooms occupy floors 23 to 28, while the reception waits higher still on the 30th floor.
The hotel draws its identity from the former landscape of Takanawa and Gotenyama. Zen stones and an image of Mount Fuji introduce the idea at street level; above, art, glass leaves and a living tree gather around a treehouse-like structure in the lobby. These references return in the rooms’ indigo and amber palette, the pool facing Tokyo Tower and dining beside the bay.
Arrival at Takanawa Gateway City
Opened on October 2, 2025, JW Marriott Hotel Tokyo forms part of TAKANAWA GATEWAY CITY in Minato-ku. The hotel is a one-minute walk from Takanawa Gateway Station, with Shinagawa Station also within walking distance. Haneda Airport is approximately 20 minutes away.
At the ground-floor entrance, abstract Japanese artworks introduce a design narrative by Yabu Pushelberg. Zen stones sit beside a mirrored representation of Mount Fuji, recalling a view once associated with Gotenyama.
The Ascent to the 30th Floor
Reception is on the 30th floor. A ceiling treatment inspired by Kamakura-bori interprets clouds in muted tones, while photographs by Sho Makishima refer to the historic horizon of Tokyo Bay.
The lobby’s defining feature is its treehouse composition. Lasvit glass elements shaped like leaves surround a ficus stricta tree, bringing the hotel’s references to landscape into the centre of the room. Wide windows place present-day Takanawa and the bay beyond it.
Serene Space
Set within the lobby level, Serene Space is open to hotel guests as a room for meditation and quiet pause. Colour, music and scent are built into the room, giving the hotel’s language of mindfulness a defined space on the 30th floor.
Its position beside the social spaces of the 30th floor gives the lobby two distinct rhythms: gathering around the treehouse and withdrawing briefly into a smaller, composed interior.
Rooms Above Tokyo Bay
The hotel has 200 rooms and suites across floors 23 to 28. Deep indigo and amber tones frame floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the city and Tokyo Bay. Natural materials and a restrained palette leave the outlook as the principal visual element.
Asia’s first JW Mindful Rooms and Suites add yoga mats, meditation tools and organic herbal teas to the room. The idea is carried through practical objects, kept within the same uncluttered setting as the rest of the accommodation.
The 60-square-metre Junior Suite occupies a corner position. Executive Suites measure approximately 88 to 95 square metres, and the Presidential Suite extends to approximately 235 square metres with separate living and dining areas. Guests in eligible rooms and suites may use the Executive Lounge on the 27th floor.
Water on the 28th Floor
On the 28th floor, a 25-metre indoor pool faces the Tokyo skyline, including Tokyo Tower. Sauna facilities sit alongside it, and Spa by JW offers personalised treatments informed by Japanese wellness traditions.
The fitness centre is open around the clock to in-house guests aged 16 and over. Pool hours and children’s access are scheduled separately, and the hotel’s latest conditions are worth checking before arrival.
Dining Above Takanawa
Dining continues the hotel’s attention to Japanese landscape and season. Kakō serves washoku with seafood, wagyu and sake drawn from across Japan. Saki is an eight-seat kappo counter facing Tokyo Bay, with its menu overseen by Emmanuel Stroobant and Kazumine Nishida.
Sefino brings a modern Mediterranean menu by Agustin Balbi, while Le Cres is devoted to croissants and coffee. JW Lounge sits close to the lobby’s treehouse feature; JW Bar looks across the city, with the concealed 4-0-3 bar tucked behind it.
A Stay Drawn from Takanawa
JW Marriott Hotel Tokyo begins in a newly built district, yet its interiors look back to the older landscape of Takanawa: Zen stones, Mount Fuji, Gotenyama and the horizon of Tokyo Bay. The treehouse lobby on the 30th floor gathers those references in one place.
Below it, indigo-and-amber rooms, Serene Space and water beside the skyline carry the same landscape references through the hotel.
