Palace Hotel Tokyo

Tokyo

This long-established hotel has been a feature of the Tokyo luxury scene since right after WW2. One of the original three high-end, Japanese-style hotels in the city, it’s a perennial Selective Asia favourite. All the top international chains are represented across the city, but it's refreshing to stay somewhere that is Japanese owned and has a more independent vibe. 

This is a property with real provenance, occupying one of the world’s most valuable plots of real estate across from the Imperial Palace with views over the serene palace gardens. The sense of calm within the suites is amplified by the silhouette of Tokyo's highrise skyline sweeping through the expansive windows; a visceral reminder that your peaceful haven is just minutes away from the city’s buzz. It certainly hasn’t sat on its laurels over the decades, despite having been razed and rebuilt, and can still impress even the most fastidious of guests.

Location

It feels fitting that a hotel as elegant as the Palace is situated in the plushest neighbourhood between Tokyo Station and the Imperial Palace, surrounded by chic streets with easy access to anywhere in the city.

Why we love it

Discover what to expect from staying at Palace Hotel Tokyo

High-end luxury

Japan does luxury well, especially in the elegant fusion of Japanese and European styles that the Palace represents so excellently. Crisp lines, minimalist style and a sense of order and process permeate. You can feel yourself relaxing into its reassuring harmony as soon as you walk through the door.

Extraordinary service

The high quality service starts as soon as you arrive, with instant and all-encompassing attention lavished on you. After a long flight, settling into your twice-daily serviced room and looking out onto the beauty of the Emperor’s garden is just perfect. It provides another talking point, and is a spectacular way to arrive in Japan.
