Welcome to Azabudai Hills, a dazzling new neighborhood in the heart of Tokyo, showcasing urban regeneration at its finest. This ambitious project, spanning 20 acres, reimagines the concept of “city living” with a striking blend of modern architecture, luxury amenities, and a vibrant community.
Stepping into Azabudai Hills feels like entering a carefully curated world. You’re greeted by breathtaking vistas of sky-piercing skyscrapers and lush green spaces, all meticulously arranged. In the distance, the iconic Tokyo Tower stands as a symbol of the city’s enduring charm. At the center of this urban oasis is Janu Tokyo, the first hotel from Aman’s new sister brand, offering a unique blend of luxury and connection.
A City Within a City
Azabudai Hills isn’t just a collection of buildings; it’s a self-contained community. It houses over 3,500 residents, 20,000 workers, a bustling commercial district with 160+ shops and restaurants, a school, a hospital, and even a relocated temple. The neighborhood is designed to be a dynamic and engaging space, with 320 plant species, including ten varieties of cherry blossoms, adding pops of color and life to its meticulously planned landscape.
Janu Tokyo: Where Luxury Meets Community
Janu Tokyo, nestled within a residential skyscraper, occupies the first 13 floors and offers panoramic views of Azabudai Hills. This hotel embodies the essence of the Janu philosophy, which translates to “soul” in Sanskrit. Unlike its sister brand Aman, known for its exclusive and serene retreats, Janu embraces a more playful and accessible approach to luxury, emphasizing a sense of community and connection.
The hotel’s design, created by renowned architect Jean-Michel Gathy, blends contemporary aesthetics with a Japanese sensibility, creating a harmonious balance of natural elements and modern design. Guests are treated to a range of amenities, including eight restaurants and bars, a spacious wellness center, and 122 stylish rooms and suites.
A Glimpse into the Lifestyle
The vibrant energy of Azabudai Hills is palpable. From the fifth-floor reception, you can see a diverse mix of people – tourists, office workers, and locals – all drawn to this unique blend of luxury and community. Rooms offer breathtaking views of the city, and the hotel’s restaurants showcase a range of culinary delights, reflecting the diverse flavors of Tokyo.
A Neighborhood With a Heart
Beyond the luxury amenities, Azabudai Hills is a place where residents and visitors can connect with the city’s rich culture and history. A sleek supermarket, a Parisian caviar boutique, a traditional Japanese sweet shop, and a world-class museum showcasing contemporary art are just a few examples of the diverse offerings in this bustling neighborhood.
A Modern Oasis
Whether you’re exploring the meticulously curated landscape, indulging in a rejuvenating spa treatment, or sampling the delicious cuisine, Azabudai Hills offers an experience that’s both sophisticated and accessible. This remarkable neighborhood is a testament to the innovative spirit of Tokyo and a glimpse into the future of urban living.
