ANA Lounge NRT design

The ANA Lounge at Tokyo Narita Terminal 1 Satellite 4 features an elegant yet subdued design. The airline’s signature alliance of black and white stone, leather furniture, and accent lighting gives the club a strong visual identity with Japanese undertones. The decor is a sober, yet timelessly elegant and peaceful.

Unfortunately, the lounge lacks windows and thus daylight, and despite the intrinsic qualities of ANA’s décor, the cavernous space lacks vibrancy and dynamism. (For daylight and views, head over to the ANA Lounge at Satellite 5, although the latter closes early in the evening.)

The open layout does not sacrifice privacy, thanks to low partitions which carve out intimate seating areas and limit the line of sight. Elegant lightweight dividers and two elevated dining areas further break up the space.

All seats come with a generously-sized side table with a built-in power outlet, and coat hangers and lamps dot the space.

Two intimate and convivial dining areas, located on either side of the lounge, offer a serene retreat serene retreat with fine hardwoods, indoor plants, and an enticing sake display.

ANA Lounge NRT bottom line

ANA Lounge – Tokyo Narita (NRT) Terminal 1 Satellite 4

The ANA Lounge at Tokyo Narita airport Terminal 1 Satellite 4 is a comfortable and well-appointed lounge, with an inviting range of amenities including cooked-to-order food, shower suites, semi-private spaces, and a large napping room.

The space could use a touch up and the décor, while sober to a fault, is elegant and serene. Unfortunately, the lack of windows and daylight makes the lounge somewhat unattractive for long stays. As an alternative, consider the ANA Lounge at Satellite 5 (open until 6:30 PM, and easily accessible through the underground connector between Satellites 4 and 5) or the United Club in the central building. Both are located further away from the gates, but feature large windows and tarmac views.
