Janu Tokyo: Balcony Rooms, Tower View Suites and Breakfast
Rooms starting from 55㎡ feature private balconies, allowing you to enjoy a stroll in Azabudai, swim in the pool, and slow breakfast during your trip.
The Tower View King Suite photo gallery features the bed with views of Tokyo Tower.
What would I choose?
If I’m looking for a time in Tokyo where I don’t have to rush out and have plenty of things to do back at the hotel, I’d add Janu Tokyo to my list. The main rooms start at 55 square meters and feature private balconies. It’s also conveniently located for walks and dining at Azabu-dai-gaoka; this is a great place to make your stay an integral part of your trip.
I would first consider whether I value space, the view of Tokyo Tower, or the pool and relaxation facilities most. A suite isn’t necessarily better for everyone’s needs than a regular room; those who are particularly concerned about the tower view and privacy should directly compare the tower view, the corner view, and the different room types, rather than just looking at the room name as an upgrade.
Advantages and trade-offs: Spacious space, but the view also needs to be chosen carefully.
Standard rooms start from 55 square meters: If you want to rest in your room and unpack your large luggage, you can start by comparing the basic room types.
- Private balcony: Think of outdoor seating and relaxing in your room together, rather than just looking at how big the bed is.
- Swimming Pool & Sports: The facility features a swimming pool, fitness center, and relaxation facilities, making it suitable for those who actually have time to use it.
- View and Privacy: The views of the tower from corner rooms and regular rooms differ from those from standard rooms, and some rooms may also face nearby buildings.
- Make sure you recognize the entrance: the hotel is connected to the commercial space, and some travelers find it a bit difficult to find the entrance on their first visit; keep the arrival sign with you when you bring your luggage.
- Location and transportation: Azabudai 1-2-2. Please save your arrival information at the entrance first.
Janu Tokyo is located at 1-2-2 Azabudai, Minato-ku, Tokyo, in the hills of Azabudai. It is a different brand and hotel from Aman Tokyo. When arranging pick-up and drop-off or using navigation, it will be clearer to use the full name Janu Tokyo.
If arriving from Kamiyacho Station, according to Tokyo Metro’s official elevator information, the Iikura-side gate connects to Exit 1, and the Toranomon-side gate connects to Elevator 4a. The elevators at Metro City Kamiyacho Station also have separate opening hours; they are closed on Sundays and public holidays. Please check the general exits, elevator exits, and the route to the hotel separately.
If you’re dragging large suitcases, bringing a stroller, or traveling with companions, you’ll need to avoid stairs. I’ll ask the hotel in advance for directions from the station to the entrance. Guests have mentioned that the entrance connects to the shopping mall and can be a bit hard to find on the first visit. Saving photos and directions of the entrance beforehand will save you more effort than getting there and then wandering around.

The green spaces, buildings, and restaurants of Azabudai Hill are perfect for a leisurely stroll. Guests also mentioned that it’s convenient to shop and eat in the commercial areas when it rains; if you’ve already visited many attractions, you can spend half a day taking a leisurely walk around the area before returning to your room to rest.

How to choose a room type: 55, 62, 65 square meters, and then consider the intended use of the suite.
According to the official room classification, the Deluxe Room is 55㎡, the City Room is 62㎡, and the Premier Room is 65㎡, all of which have a King or Twin room and a private balcony. The room types are not just different in name; their size and external views are also worth comparing.
Room type
Official area
What would I choose?
Deluxe Room
Official area: 55㎡
How would I choose? I’d start by comparing the space and bed types in the basic room types.
City Room
Official area: 62㎡
I would choose one that offers more activity space, and then consider the landscape and design options.
Premier Room
Official area: 65㎡
Which option would allow me to stay in the room longer? I can compare seat and window seats.
Room types: Deluxe Suite / Junior Suite
Official area: 75㎡ / 96㎡
I’ll consider it again when I need a more complete living space.
Room types Premier, City View, Tower View, Corner Suite
Official area 105㎡ category
I would choose based on perspective, privacy, and living room usage.
Room type Janu Suite
Official area: 284㎡
I would choose based on the number of guests or special space requirements, and confirm each option individually.
Standard guest rooms: In addition to the bed type, also check out the tables, chairs, and balcony.
I’ll first decide whether to have one double bed or two beds, then compare the sizes of 55, 62, and 65 square meters. The round table, bench, and work desk in the photo mean I don’t have to stay in bed all the time when I go back to my room to rest; these amenities will be even more practical when two people are traveling together and when we need to pack our luggage every day.

Suite is suitable for people who need more furniture and will be spending a lot of time in the room. The window configurations of corner suites, tower view suites, and smaller suites are different. The photo gallery can help you see the relationship between the living area, bathroom, and balcony.

The facility features a swimming pool, fitness center, and relaxation facilities. Guests also share their experiences using the yoga, training classes, and spa. If you enjoy exercise, this is the perfect place to spend a leisurely morning without having to rush out the door; simply review the classes, reservations, and usage benefits according to your chosen arrangements.

Is breakfast worth it? Save it for a day when you’re willing to eat slowly.
In the breakfast reviews, some people liked the dishes and choices, while others found the main course to take a long time to arrive. If you want to exercise first and then sit down to eat a full meal, I would include breakfast in your schedule; if you have to catch a bus or visit attractions early in the morning, you can check out the no-breakfast option first to allow for more flexibility in your schedule.
The restaurant inside Janu Tokyo features long tables, chairs, and large windows.
I would divide the total price difference between breakfast included and breakfast not included by the number of diners and the number of days, and then consider whether I would actually sit down to eat. If I’m just going out for a cup of coffee, I don’t need to schedule a full breakfast every morning just because the room is nice.
Short stays vs. extended stays: You can have a fulfilling day by spending it in a hotel.
If I’m only staying one night, I’ll arrange to return to the hotel a little earlier to go to the pool or exercise, and then enjoy the room and balcony in the evening. This kind of stay usually allows me to better appreciate the space and facilities of the hotel than checking in late at night and leaving early the next morning.
When staying for consecutive nights, room privacy, furniture arrangement, and breakfast schedule become more important. If you want to sit by the window and enjoy the view every day, prioritize that. If your travel companions have different schedules, compare the living arrangements in suites. If you need to catch a flight or have a lot of luggage, you can also compare the entire route of taxis and subways to make your departure day easier.
How do we choose in the end?
If you’re looking to incorporate a stroll in Azabudai, swimming, exercise, and a leisurely breakfast, Janu Tokyo makes the accommodation itself an itinerary. First, check if the 55㎡ basic room is sufficient, then compare the views and suites; if your primary desire is to see Tokyo Tower, prioritize the actual view and privacy over room upgrades.
