Hotel Allamanda Aoyama

Despite being just steps from Gaienmae Station, I had no idea there was a Hotel tucked away here—it felt like a hidden retreat. The number of Rooms isn’t very large, which made it especially calm and relaxing, and I was impressed by the overall bubbly, luxurious design.This time I chose a Plan with Club Lounge access. Unlike a typical buffet, you select your dishes and enjoy unlimited drinks, which the staff kindly bring to your table. The drink selection was extensive and fun. Personally, I would have been even happier if there had been some light snacks available to nibble on freely.The Junior Suite we stayed in was truly spacious, and even the hallway leading to the Room already felt special. The in-room refrigerator also offered complimentary drinks, so we didn’t need to go out shopping—something I really appreciated. The sofa in particular was incredibly comfortable—so much so that “a sofa that ruins you” feels like the perfect description.We stayed in February, and the next day brought heavy snowfall. Being able to look out over the rugby field covered in snow is something I won’t forget. This isn’t a Hotel for flashy skyline night views like high-rise properties; instead, it has the appeal of an adult-oriented place where you can spend quiet time right in the city.It seems our stay coincided with just before major renovation work began, so I’m glad we were able to visit ahead of the long closure. I’m looking forward to returning after it reopens.

The amenities were plentiful and excellent.It was also nice that some items were different for men and women.The walls were surprisingly thin, so it was a bit disappointing to hear laughter and other sounds from nearby rooms, but the in-Room facilities were flawless!When we requested a wedding setup on the day, they kindly accommodated us, and we had a wonderful time!
