  • Oh my God, this is crazy.

  • Tokyo is home to amongst the finest hotels in the world.

  • And recently I was incredibly lucky to be invited to review a five star hotel room in one of the city's tallest skyscrapers.

  • Now I was able to bring a guest with me and reluctantly I chose to bring Connor, Ak Si Don V.

  • A.

  • But on one condition that he was able to eat 100 bowls of noodles.

  • I mean I wasn't going to just do something nice for him was eye spoiler alert.

  • Unfortunately he was able to do it though.

  • If you're wondering who ate the most bowls out of Connor and I be sure to go and check the video.

  • But having won the bet, we're off to Tokyo with the victorious yet somewhat bloated Connor to stay overnight in a hotel room, which might just have the best view of the entire city.

  • Right.

  • How are you feeling?

  • Then corner, How you feeling?

  • How's your stomach?

  • I think I'm gonna pick the walls with sober.

  • I think on the way you paid $6000 this hotel O'Connor, I wouldn't spend $60 on a hotel room for you.

  • I got an email basically sort of saying, do you want to come review one of our penthouse suites for a video?

  • And I was like, yes, I think it's the highest hotel room in the entire city.

  • So you're gonna go to bed higher than anyone higher than 36 million people today, how do you feel about that?

  • Thinking rightfully so after you tortured me multiple times on this wacky weekend.

  • I've been nice to you and this is the first time that chris been nice to me the first time.

  • First time.

  • And it wasn't your money.

  • It's someone else's money.

  • But it's the thought that counts, right?

  • That's good.

  • 258 m above Tokyo tallest skyscraper in the city.

  • Let's do it.

  • And here it is.

  • The building coming up with the sort of spiky roof, Tehran Amman Hills.

  • Okay.

  • Right, okay.

  • Mhm.

  • Chris has made me wait for like 20 minutes while he's been getting a tour of the room and he told me to stay outside because he wants a genuine reaction.

  • Yes.

  • Let's go ahead and see the route.

  • I mean how good can it be?

  • He's been there for so long.

  • Let me and chris, come on.

  • What do you want wine already?

  • You've been in there for like 20 minutes.

  • Can't let me on the tour finished like 10 minutes ago.

  • I've just been oh my God, this room, Right, I've been saying it's $6000 the entire time.

  • Apparently it's $12,000 and I can see why now I've been inside it.

  • What do you think?

  • All right, ready?

  • 12,000.

  • What time for the five star experience you've been on about?

  • This view is insane.

  • What?

  • Holy!

  • It's kind of a shame that it's not like a clear day, but this is amazing!

  • What the fuck!

  • Oh my God!

  • The Tokyo Tower were bigger than the Tokyo tower.

  • Oh my God, look at that and you've got your own telescope.

  • I know you can just so high up you can see the clouds.

  • You gotta take the cap off chris.

  • I explain it alright, we're higher than the Tokyo Tower.

  • What?

  • Check this photo out this photo.

  • It was just lingering on the table.

  • This is like the magazine for the hotel.

  • You see this angle, this photo was taken in this room.

  • Yeah, it must have been there.

  • Right, right, go over there, go over there.

  • Okay, that's pretty good.

  • You should recreate it, chris, elegance, elegance, class, subtlety, modesty.

  • All things criticism.

  • Oh my God, This is crazy.

  • This is just like a third of it.

  • So it's 210 m2.

  • It's about 240 something meters up.

  • That's like nearly tripled my apartment.

  • It's triple your, that's quite big.

  • $12,000 a night.

  • And yeah, it's mind blowing.

  • And this table is so cool.

  • It's one of those like single pieces of wood tables, the ones that like hand crafted by expert.

  • You always see videos about these like the best tables in Japan crafted by the guy who cares the most about wood or something and they're always like, I don't know, I'm not qualified to speak on the topic if you want to intimidate someone.

  • This is where you invite them for a meeting.

  • This is like, like sit down on the wooden, look at this chair.

  • So it's, it's a coffee, you've got the job, you've impressed me, You've charmed me from here.

  • I can see like Connor and then just like Tokyo tower, it's pretty epic.

  • This couch, a macaron.

  • I love it, I love a macaron.

  • Is there anything more privileged than doing a room to holding a glass of wine, eating a macaron Macaron.

  • Don't touch the buttons.

  • I want to.

  • First, toilet is over here with the minibar minibar number one, there's multiple minibars, multiple minibars.

  • And because it's a sweet, all the alcohol was complimentary.

  • Look at that coffee machine.

  • What is that Complimentary that did cost $12,000?

  • You pay for it.

  • You can drink all, you can drink all of this for free.

  • They have the region as well.

  • Your favorite gym actually do.

  • This is actually some of the best gym that you can get in Japan.

  • It's actually amazing.

  • Jim.

  • Really?

  • That's the best.

  • I love my coffee and look at this thing.

  • What is this?

  • Oh that's so cool.

  • It wasn't the room that impressed him.

  • It was the coffee.

  • I've never seen a machine like this before, it's gotta milk froth er in it.

  • Oh my goodness, that's cool.

  • Are you telling me?

  • That's not cool.

  • Look at this, it's very cool.

  • That's amazing.

  • Very cool.

  • So enter the sitting room?

  • I don't even know what, what's the sitting room and what what, where does the living room begin?

  • And the cozy snug.

  • And yeah, I like the floor.

  • How it kind of makes it all feel like a connected space.

  • Like a big carpet.

  • Yeah, It is a big, It's like, this is what I've been waiting for Chris, right?

  • You've been, you've been making me suffer for so long.

  • And finally I get something worth my time, worth your time rather than having to shove 100 pile of noodles in my mouth.

  • It was worth it.

  • I'd say this is great.

  • Let's carry on around where's the bedroom is actually a few more rooms we have to go through first to get serious.

  • But look at this sculpture.

  • It's even bigger than this.

  • This is so trippy.

  • I thought this was part of the mirror and it is really, it's like a hidden entrance.

  • It's like choose your own adventure.

  • You want to go left or do you want to go right, I want to go Right.

  • So this is the bathroom area.

  • So big.

  • Where is this another toilet?

  • Because of course.

  • And of course, in case, you know, you need to sell your stocks and you're on the toilet, pick up the phone, dump the stock, sell it.

  • I'm in the middle of proving that sell it.

  • This is insane.

  • And I've never wanted to go on the toilet and watch myself before.

  • But now now I can become reality.

  • That's what wealthy people do.

  • Watch them.

  • Let's look at the bar itself.

  • No, this is like a oh my God, it's like a Jacuzzi that's so deep.

  • We could easily, we could, oh my God, that's a nice bath.

  • I love the multilevel bath.

  • So you decided it's a little too hot.

  • I want to have a little bit of my body out of the bath.

  • Oh my God, don't do that.

  • Fuck off.

  • What is this?

  • That's the while you're waiting in the corridor, there's a second entrance to the room.

  • We've got a sort of a big L shaped tour entrance number two.

  • What do you want to come to a different entrance or run away from the corner chasing you through the hotel is so extra.

  • And a place to put on your shoes obviously as well as a place to put on your shoes.

  • This is bigger than most upper hotel rooms, like maybe hotel rooms in Japan.

  • What are the size of the sort of entrance home?

  • The place where you put your shoes on is bigger than most hotel rooms in your hand.

  • Look at this!

  • She was so ridiculous.

  • It's insane.

  • In my bed bedroom.

  • Oh my God, wow, wow two king sized beds.

  • Yeah.

  • What's not to like?

  • Right, it's just crazy.

  • So they don't call this the presidential suite, They call it the sky sweet because it is one of the highest hotel rooms in all of Tokyo that crazy, 36 million people and only one seat up in his massively tall, very high hotel room, looking down on the people like he does in most of his videos, But now he's actually really looking down.

  • It's just not a metaphor.

  • The room also comes with a nightmare.

  • If you want to do some work, I've got to edit a video tonight so I could just sit here and just like lash out a video.

  • I think this is the strangest door handle I've ever seen.

  • Look at that.

  • What is that?

  • What's it supposed to be?

  • I don't know, some must be some like artistic vision of handles and reimagining of another mini fridge.

  • That's the mini bar.

  • Number two, wow.

  • Yeah, this room is, this is crazy as the evening rolls in, we grab a few cocktails at the rooftop bar and admire the jaw dropping Tokyo nighttime view.

  • Meanwhile our in room dining is being prepared on our huge banquet table with a feast fit for a king O'Connor.

  • So guys, we've got room service naturally and we've got a very unique kind of beef here.

  • What is it?

  • It's snow aged beef from Niigata Prefecture, which means that the beef was in the fridge that would have been frozen by snow and supposedly it gives it some kind of additional flavor and I gotta say the flavors of good.

  • That's juicy as hell.

  • It's really good.

  • Oh my God, there's a reason why it would cost a mortgage.

  • But it is good.

  • It is really good.

  • Am I the best friend ever or what, what do I get next year on my wacky weekend.

  • I don't know.

  • I don't have any expectations that I'm gonna be able to top this because I'm not going to be, there's no way this is definitely going to be a memory.

  • I'll treasure forever anytime anyone ever tries to tell me about a good hotel room they've stayed and I'll be like, great, you've stayed in a kennel.

  • I've stayed in a room for kings.

  • Didn't have snow aged beef.

  • Didn't, didn't like what's your telescope telescope aimed at the Tokyo hotel?

  • Why don't we just review luxury hotels?

  • What do you think is this fun to watch to like dickheads?

  • Just having a nice time.

  • This is just a beautiful time with my lobster bisque swelling.

  • My wife appreciate it.

  • It's just hard looking out over his his domain.

  • I mean, it's hard not to appreciate.

  • Just want to sit here all night.

  • They should have brought like a camping chair like camp.

  • This is insane.

  • This is probably one of, if not the best view ever had of Tokyo.

  • Something about being able to enjoy this view.

  • I don't know, it's, it's quite an experience really.

  • I'm really grateful.

  • Where do I rank on the friends scale have definitely gone up a few points now.

  • I think it's definitely made up for the needles made up for the bad hotel.

  • You've been rapidly losing points.

  • But this is the point you're right back up in the top spot.

  • Okay.

  • Okay.

  • Bed review time.

  • Bad review.

  • What will the $12,000 bed feel like you've probably wondered that.

  • So have I?

  • That's why I've come here to find out today.

  • Mm hmm.

  • Okay.

  • Okay.

  • I can get behind that.

  • Pretty good bet.

  • Still bad and sober.

  • Yeah.

  • Good morning everyone and welcome back to what might be the greatest hotel room in all of Tokyo room.

  • So big.

  • You can actually go for a morning jog and get in your 10,000 steps.

  • I apologize to my eccentric morning hair.

  • This terrible hairstyle is how you know, you've had a good night's sleep.

  • And I'll tell you what, I don't know what's in those pillows.

  • Unicorn feathers.

  • But that was the best night's sleep I've had in a very long time.

  • And those pillows with a reason for that.

  • So damn soft.

  • I don't know where Connor is.

  • He?

  • Uh, he woke up in that bed and now he's gone.

  • Um, well, to be fair, if you want to find Connor, I know where to look.

  • I know where he might be usually in wherever it is lost in the hotel room.

  • He's usually in the bath is such a big and luxurious bath.

  • I feel like I have a crime empire.

  • A criminal mastermind and it's really nice actually.

  • Breakfast.

  • Mm hmm.

  • My favorite thing about staying in a good hotel is they have american style breakfast.

  • It's not really american.

  • There's not as much meat as you probably have in America.

  • There's too much vegetables.

  • There's an awful lot of vegetables for american breakfast.

  • I thought, I thought it's gonna be like a british one right?

  • Where you just have meat and cholesterol and fat.

  • It's awfully healthy.

  • But I know that only means it's quite expensive.

  • Yes, the walls and specifically fruit are really expensive in japan because they have to massage every watermelon by hand.

  • So sad.

  • The whole thing is now over.

  • Yeah, I want to stay in that bed again and never leave it.

  • Well, it costs you $12,000 while the Sky suite costs an eye watering $12,000 a night.

  • Fortunately most rooms in the Andes Hotel are far more affordable at least for a five star hotel with a regular 50 m square king sized room complete with the incredible views, the huge bath and the glorious bed starting At around $350 a night.

  • But back to the sky.

  • Sweet and with breakfast out of the way and our impending check out almost upon us relaxation soon turns to terror.

  • As conor realizes we haven't consumed all of the rooms, complimentary drinks.

  • What's going on here.

  • I have an espresso machine and you thieving you're you're stealing the goods.

  • What do you mean?

  • We paid for it.

  • But the room cause I have an espresso machine at home and I, why not?

  • This is big Brain don't judge me.

  • I am going to judge You can take that expression, ransacking the room and sticking it in his backpack.

  • It's like, it's like $10 worth of espresso pods.

  • Let me have this about the alcohol.

  • We'll take that as well.

  • Number one, the hotel gives you free stuff.

  • Keep it.

  • Oh, give it to God.

  • He likes his wine.

  • Yeah.

  • Gray goose.

  • That's expensive.

  • We'll take that.

  • We'll take that as well.

  • Well, you know, we'll take this to actually, you know, let's just take the fridge.

  • Just pick up the fridge and take, this is a big break.

  • I've learned the ways of Connor.

  • I'm taking the free complimentary alcohol.

  • So I just went in the shower, right?

  • Gonna do some shampoo and wash my hair.

  • It's gone.

  • Is taking it all.

  • I was like, where's the shampoo gone?

  • There was a big pile of shampoo, body wash, luxurious, decadent body wash.

  • It's gone brilliant profit.

  • Should have brought Joey.

  • That's someone nice.

  • But what's the highlight of the revenue of the view?

  • The view?

  • The view is insane.

  • The fact that you can have such a clear view of Tokyo, you can see the Tokyo Tower, like it's a kind of toy.

  • It's so small and pathetic compared to your, there's a great shot, great shot of you like dancing and you're like above the tower.

  • I think the view is probably the highlight and the snow matured the snow age to be.

  • Yeah, it's your favorite thing on earth snow.

  • It just sounds so bizarre.

  • I've never heard of this until I came here.

  • I've never heard it put the beef in a shed covered in ice and snow in Niigata.

  • I want to go and see this, this light seller that's chris's next video.

  • Snow aged beef.

  • Is it really the final frontier snow aged beef.

  • But thank you to and as you guys stay here, let us review the room.

  • The bar is pretty high for next year.

  • Right?

  • I'm sure we can, we can top it.

  • Can't wait for your next luxury hotel review.

  • I think this is the first and last time you get to do anything good in wacky weekend.

  • Why?

  • This is great.

  • What is it?

  • I was a fantastic next time.

  • It's going to be the most unpleasant boat.

  • The worst plane in Japan crashing into a volcano.

  • But for now guys, bye for now.

  • Bye.

  • Where's the champagne?

  • Where's the shampoo?

  • You should have asked for it.

  • Action.
