One of the many things Japan is known for is moderninity. Thanks to the technological boom it experienced post-World War II, Japan is a virtual (literally in some areas) wonderland of technological advancements. Many of the high-rise hotels here are a testament to that fact. Many of the boutique establishments have also taken the modern design and fused it with Japan’s already minimalist style. Japan’s luxury hotels have much to offer the weary traveler from the in-room art displays of the Benesse House to the 800-year-old garden at the Four Seasons in Kyoto. You will visit hotels so luxurious in Japan, that you will never want to leave the country, or possibly your room!
