A lovely fragrance drifts through the reception area; take time to appreciate the meticulously tended bonsai and Japanese maple, and the painstakingly arranged <em>ikebana<\/em> flowers.<\/p>\n<p>The bedrooms will leave you wanting for nothing. I would heartily recommend booking a room with a balcony &#8211; these are a rare feature of luxury hotels in Tokyo.
