Leading Hotels of the World in Asia & Oceania: The Full List

From Tokyo's grand dames to Sumba's surf lodge: Asia's LHW members are arguably the collection's most exciting wing.

By Biirdee Travel — Luxury Travel Concierge · Updated June 10, 2026

Asia contributes 48 members and many of the collection's most awarded properties: Japan's nine-strong line-up (the Imperials, Palace Hotel Tokyo, The Okura) is the deepest outside Europe; Indonesia counters with World's-50-Best royalty in Capella Ubud and Nihi Sumba; Seoul brings Signiel and The Shilla; Langkawi the beloved Datai; Bangkok the new Capella; and the Maldives five resorts. Oceania adds Mornington Peninsula's arthouse Jackalope.

Every hotel below carries Leaders Club benefits — breakfast for two, upgrade requests, points toward free nights — and Biirdee stacks partner perks on top where we hold direct relationships. "Check live rates" links open each property on our booking site.

FAQs

Which Japanese hotels are LHW members?

Nine as of 2026: the Imperial hotels in Tokyo and Kyoto, Palace Hotel Tokyo, The Okura Tokyo, Halekulani Okinawa, the Hotel Seiryu Kyoto Kiyomizu, the Kahala Yokohama, and the two ESPACIO properties (Nagoya, Hakone).

What are the most awarded members in Asia?

Capella Ubud and Nihi Sumba — both perennial top-10 finishers in global hotel rankings — with Capella Bangkok the newest entrant to that conversation.

How do these compare with Aman in Asia?

Different instruments: Aman builds singular sanctuaries; LHW's Asian members range from grand city hotels to wild lodges, often at gentler rates. Many Biirdee itineraries mix both — see our Aman Japan guide for the pairing logic.
