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

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.

What Biirdee Does

A concierge travel agency — paid by the hotel, never by you

Biirdee Travel books luxury hotels through preferred-partner programs: you pay the same rate as booking direct, the partner benefits attach to your reservation, and a human concierge handles the details end to end.

  1. Tell us the trip

    Destination or property, rough dates, who’s traveling. The form takes two minutes and commits you to nothing.

  2. A concierge replies within hours

    A real person checks availability, compares properties honestly, and confirms the perks your stay qualifies for — upgrades, breakfast, and credits where available.

  3. Book at the same rate as direct

    The hotel pays our commission out of the rate you’d pay anyway, so the perks cost you nothing. Before and during the trip, one concierge on WhatsApp handles requests and changes.

Flying too? The same team books business and first class — flights and hotels aligned as one itinerary, one point of contact.
