Arrival in Tokyo – Highlights
Upon arrival, the group will be met by and English speaking driver, and transferred by a luxury van to the Blossom Hibiya – Tokyo
Located in the easily accessible Shibashi area, this lodging’s upper floor guestrooms enjoy a panoramic view of the city centre.
The traditional washi (Japanese paper) and the motif of our carpeting express the image inspired by the transitions of the four seasons and the history surrounding Hibiya. Here, you will find two distinctive types of rooms: double rooms in impressively muted colors and comfortable twin rooms in mild soothing colors. Each room features a luxurious bathroom with a washing area. You can enjoy your stay in a relaxed manner with panoramic views from the 19th floor and above.
