Penthouse Suite

The Apex

The Apex occupies the entire fourteenth floor of the Altaris Tokyo building — 240m² of interior, 60m² of wraparound terrace, and a horizon that no other address in the hotel can claim. The panorama extends 270 degrees: due west, the dark pines of the Imperial Palace grounds; to the south, Tokyo Bay and the Rainbow Bridge at the water's edge; northward, the Shinjuku skyline at dusk; east, the Tokyo Skytree above the Sumida. The wraparound terrace, planted with kumazasa bamboo screens and white-flowering cherry, encloses a private swimming pool in honed Oya stone — six metres long, heated year-round. The principal salon, its ceiling opened to expose the original timber structure, is the grandest room in the hotel: fifteen-metre ceiling height, exposed hinoki beams, and a stone basin fireplace. The master suite occupies the north wing; the second suite, the south. Both have independent dressing rooms and stone bathrooms. A staff room and butler's pantry are located off the service entrance. The suite has a private lift from the lobby. A dedicated team — butler, private chef, chauffeur — is assigned for the duration of each stay. The Apex is available by application only.
