The Pool at Park Hyatt Tokyo

"pool and fitness centre, occupying the pinnacles of Tange Kenzo's tower, have breathtaking views"

"I also like the hotel's 2000-book library, the free bikes for exploration of nearby Yoyogi, Chuo, and Shinjuku parks, and the 47th-floor fitness facilities overlooking the city, with free use of a sky-lit lap pool, gym, and studio offering complimentary yoga, aerobics, pilates, and a relaxing "Good Night Sleep Stretch"

"The 47th-floor swimming pool, complete with glass roof, is an oasis above it all"

"The hotel, which sits on the 41st through 48th floors of an office tower, is known for its hushed interiors, impeccable service, excellent Japanese breakfasts, and gorgeous enclosed rooftop pool, with views to Mount Fuji"

"Take a dip in the 65-foot swimming pool — surrounded on all sides by floor-to-ceiling windows — in the early morning or at sunset, when Tokyo’s neon lights compete with sunlight dancing on the neighboring glass towers"

"The 770-foot building rises in a succession of summits with a glass pyramid topping the three peaks, the pyramids home to a bamboo garden, swimming pool, and restaurant, respectively"

"Also, the pool on the 47th floor is cool"

"The spa boasts seven treatment rooms along with whirlpools, Vichy showers, onsen baths, steam rooms, saunas, and shiatsu and Swedish massage (the sauna and steam rooms apply a charge for all except Hyatt's most allegiant guests)"
