Step down from the Aman Tokyo and Ritz Carlton Kyoto?
I’m staying 1 week in Tokyo and another in Kyoto. I would usually stay in the Aman and Ritz but due to personal circumstances I can’t afford them for the whole week. What hotels would you recommend that are one step down and cheaper?

The Park Hyatt Tokyo is open until May. I’ve also got a booking at the Tokyo Station Hotel which I’m quite excited about and on the surface appears to be exceptional value.

The Tokyo Station Hotel looks like great value, but IMO I think it's a bit of a stretch allowing it to be a member of SLH, to me it looks like a Marriott or Hilton lol.
