Sweets Hotel Ikebukuro

Sweets Hotel turns a stay into a sugar rush. The exterior announces itself before you've fully registered what you're looking at: a pink building studded with giant cookies, chocolate bars and cream puffs climbing the facade like architectural frosting. Inside, the rooms each commit to a different corner of the confectionery universe, but the presidential suite is the real cherry on top: a rooftop with a functioning merry-go-round, a pedal-powered rollercoaster, and a bed framed by an enormous dark chocolate clam shell. Before you even get to the room, you get to pick and choose at a complimentary candy bar complete with chocolate bath salts. Hansel and Gretel would have loved it here, though the door policy is strictly adults only.
