Business Traveller UK|Business Traveller UK March 2023 issue
BACKGROUND Four Seasons opened its second hotel in Tokyo in September 2020. Located in the business district of Otemachi, it is larger than its sister property and has 170 rooms and 20 suites, four F&B venues, a spa and events space.

WHERE IS IT? The hotel occupies the top six floors of the 39-storey Otemachi One Tower. It is close to various multinational companies and adjacent to Otemachi station, with direct access from exits C4 and C5. The Imperial Palace lies opposite.

WHAT'S IT LIKE? The hotel has a more conspicuous arrival area than its sister property in Marunouchi, with a redorange timber entrance designed to pay homage to Japanese torii gates. The real experience begins on the 39th floor. As the lift doors open, it feels like you have entered a sky-high oasis. Shallow pools of water, which resemble those within a Japanese zen garden, distance you from the floor to-ceiling windows but don't obstruct the view. The reflections instead multiply the cityscape and envelop you in tranquillity. Interiors have been designed by Jean-Michel Gathy and Denniston, with Design Studio Spin responsible for dining venues Pigneto, Virtu and Est.

The reception is at the heart of the space, with the reception facing a large centrepiece with an arrangement of seasonal flowers. The hotel offers wooden keys or digital key via the Four Seasons app.

The rail thing - Why airlines and train companies are partnering to increase options for travellers on short journeys

An intercity flight connection operated by train would have been almost unthinkable in the early 1990s, but in 2024 it will increasingly be the default experience at many European hub airports. European nations have been among the world's leaders in adopting high-speed rail for short-distance trips, along with Asian countries such as Japan and China.

Adventures in Albania - From paranoid dictatorship to dream travel destination, why the Balkan nation is ready for its moment in the sun

Over the past few years, tourism has shot up stratospherically; recent figures from the European Travel Commission show it's grown 86 per cent since 2019. Its GDP per capita has also been increasing, and last year stood at US$8,800, while the average monthly salary is now around 84,000 lek (£704). Foreign direct investment is also on the rise, with countries including Switzerland, Italy, and the Netherlands targeting sectors such as energy, mining, information and real estate to a value of around US$1.5 billion in 2022, according to UNCTAD's World Investment Report. Not bad for a country which used to depend on foreign food aid.
