Travelling and discovery go hand-in-hand. Sometimes this means getting lost in a city's backstreets, other times it's opting for somewhere low-key to rest your head. If less really is more, these seven understated hotels certainly deliver. They might not be insider favourites, but that's precisely why we like them.

Tokyo is full of sleek, exclusive hotels, but this hidden gem based in residential Koenji is for those looking to step out of their comfort zone. The functional rooms double as art installations, meaning with every stay the artists, architects, textile designers and carpenters benefit financially - it's a win-win situation. The bar, gallery and rooftop lounge inside the complex host various events, which guests are encouraged to participate in throughout the year, so while the neighbourhood may not be a tourist hotspot, it's still buzzing with life.
