Experience of the stay
Mezam Tokyo, a luxury hotel, opened on April 27, 2020, in the WATERS Takeshiba tower.
I had seen it featured on TV before and had wanted to visit at least once, so I decided to stay in Chapter Two as part of my travel subscription with HafH for my special occasion.
Mezam Tokyo has unique amenities. The most impactful is the book-shaped amenity box. When you open the book, you find amenities designed like a puzzle, inspired by adventure novels from the Age of Exploration!
From the balcony, you can see the Hamarikyu Gardens and Tokyo Skytree. You can hear the sounds of the boats arriving and departing as well as the horns from ships leaving Takeshiba Pier, creating a sense of extraordinary life!
The bathroom is glass-enclosed. While you can't see the view from the bath due to the angle, you can enjoy the outside scenery while showering, making it feel almost like a view-bath... you can also close a sliding door to separate the bathroom from the bedroom.
The lounge “Club Mezam” is on the 25th floor of Mezam Tokyo. Access had been limited to a select few in the past, but starting from August 1, 2023, all guests can now enter.
We went to Club Mezam before dinner, and the view was absolutely stunning! It would be a shame not to visit Club Mezam now that all guests can access it... be sure to stop by when you visit Mezam Tokyo!
Experiences during the trip
The Singapore Seafood Republic Tokyo on the third floor of Atré Takeshiba, next to Mezam Tokyo, is famous for its signature dish, chili crab, a staple of Singaporean cuisine. We visited for dinner.
Eating the chili crab while wearing plastic gloves and cracking the shells yourself makes for an authentic Singaporean experience. The drink menu is also well-stocked with options like the Singapore Sling. Other Singaporean dishes like laksa, Hainan chicken rice, and Hokkien mee were delicious too!
The Takeshiba Passenger Terminal (Tōkai Kisen), from which ferries to the Izu Seven Islands and the Ogasawara Islands depart, is a 3-minute walk from the hotel. We took a stroll after dinner and enjoyed views of the boats and the Rainbow Bridge at night.
It's also fun to take a boat from the “WATERS Takeshiba” landing, which is just a 2-minute walk from the hotel, to Odaiba or Asakusa. Before staying at Mezam Tokyo, we stayed at OMO3 Asakusa by Hoshino Resorts and enjoyed sightseeing in Asakusa before taking a boat to WATERS Takeshiba.
From OMO Asakusa, you can see both Tokyo Skytree and Senso-ji Temple from the hotel—it was wonderful! Be sure to combine a visit to Mezam with sightseeing in Asakusa!
