The ‘major renovation’ has been adding two corners of Japanese paper on each side of the bed and a new headboard. The rest of the hotel seems to look exactly the same (inc Lobby, bathrooms). Classic FS review management tactics.

My review wasn’t even bad but that despite good service, this felt like being in any FS in the world rather than being in Japan. Totally inauthentic. It’s the only hotel we regretted choosing in Japan.

Just confirmed our decision never to stay with FS again. Everywhere we go, there are better options these days.

Hi everyone,

I bought a multi city par -> osaka ; tokyo -> par
Paid full cash on AF website
Both times I selected the intermediate fare e.g. with lounge access, but not full flex (300 euros change fee)
The par -> osaka was in promo and materially cheaper than the tokyo -> paris

Anyways, my question is: the cheaper paris osaka ticket is marked as class Z, but the Tokyo Paris ticket is marked as class I. What gives? I thought class I was only for award flights?

Thanks

Hi everyone,

I’m in the middle of choosing a hotel for tokyo this summer.
Looking for any views from my fellow travellers on Aman, Bvlgari and Mandarin Oriental; specifically on how they stack up in terms of concierge, views, and quality of service ?

I saw the other thread on the topic but it specifically excludes Aman and has very little on MO… looking for views of these threes specifically. Don’t love FS in Asia and don’t love the park hyatt. Already been to a few of the others.

Thanks FATTravellers!
