Overview
Originally opened in 1961 and completely rebuilt in 2012, Palace Hotel Tokyo has become one of the city’s most respected luxury properties. The hotel is known for its understated elegance and its unique setting directly beside the Imperial Palace gardens.
As an independent luxury hotel, the property combines Japanese hospitality traditions with modern international standards.

Design & Atmosphere

Natural materials and clean architectural lines reinforce the sense of quiet refinement.
