The 24 Hotels Traveler Readers Booked Most This Year
"A ryokan-style hotel, complete with mineral-rich onsen water, set in the heart of Tokyo’s coolest neighborhood—need we say more? We will. Like the quaint Japanese inns found deep in the countryside, Yuen Bettei Daita leans hard into traditional wellness, and has become a favorite among international visitors and staycationing Tokyoites alike. The multi-course menus in the restaurant, Tsukikage, pay tribute to a panoply of seasonal ingredients. Plus, you're smack dab in the middle of Shimokitazawa, largely considered to be Tokyo’s most fun cluster of city blocks and a global hub of streetwear fashion. Expect a scatter of traditional and modern construction replete with chic espresso shops, vintage clothing stores, and plenty of curry parlors and ramen joints. —Brandon Presser"
