About Hotel Villa Fontaine Haneda Airport

Hotel Villa Fontaine is a hotel chain under the ownership of Sumitomo Realty & Development, with 21 hotels situated within Tokyo, Osaka, and Kobe's 23 wards (as of March 2023). It was christened Villa Fontaine to offer a calming and rejuvenating escape in Japan's bustling cities.

The latest addition to the hotel chain is the airport hotel, which directly links to Haneda Airport. The hotel features two brands: the deluxe Hotel Villa Fontaine Premier Haneda Airport and the top-notch Hotel Villa Fontaine Grand Haneda Airport. Both hotels are situated within the Haneda Airport Garden complex, connected to Terminal 3 via a passageway. Additionally, the hotel boasts a staggering 1,717 guest rooms, making it Japan's most extensive airport hotel.

What’s the difference between Premier and Grand?

Premier is for those seeking a luxurious and hospitable stay in an airport hotel. Grand offers a comfortable stay with an emphasis on convenience and functionality, recommended as a base for business and sightseeing.

To reach both the Premier and Grand hotels, guests can access their entrances via the fourth-floor lobby. While airport hotels usually prioritize convenience and proximity to the airport, Villa Fontaine Haneda Airport goes beyond that and aims to create a cozy and unforgettable stay for travelers. As a stopover for passengers, the hotel features a minimalist Japanese interior design, attentive service, and a Japanese ambiance, which both hotels share.
