The rates are not really a surprise .. Hopefully , now that GM Akira S is on board , there will be opening specials in the works . Suites look somewhat similar to styles of Nemu & Tokyo . And aside from the rates it will be rather more interesting if they are able to deliver on Aman ethos, service and creating the magic. These rates do create expectation and quite necessary to balance the hard product. |

Room photos are a bit of a bummer. Same overly-minimalist style as Aman Tokyo. Feels like you're inside a shiny wooden box.

Rates in general appear to be much better than originally reported. I'm seeing a lot of dates with 110,000 JPY pricing which actually isn't outrageous. Across winter, spring, summer.

Totally agree. We stayed in a suite at the Aman Tokyo and all of the wood left the room with an aroma that was not particularly pleasant, in addition to looking monotonous.

Means it wasn't natural hinoki wood or the shiny glazing left an odor behind?

This type of the design works really well if the service is so warm and caring that it saves the atmosphere and adds to it. Sadly, in many instances at Aman Tokyo this is not the case. |

There was never going to be Art Deco tiling or stone elephants like Rosewood Hong Kong. Fits the whole Zen Kyoto austere thing but I'm still not really a fan either.

[2BR villa] Washigamine Pavilion...Surrounded by nature in the highest and most secluded area of the resort, the east-facing pavilion pays homage to the traditional Japanese Ryokan inn and looks over the entire garden and the Kamigame mountain range in the distance. A trekking path leads directly from the pavilion through the surrounding forest and various private meditation gardens can be found nearby.

I expected standalone pavilions & villas here, so was surprised that the hotel consisted of 2-storey blocks!
