Palace Hotel Tokyo
Palace Hotel Tokyo is a luxury hotel in Marunouchi, facing the gardens of the Imperial Palace across the moat, and the house where The Classic Cherry Blossom Tour of Japan and The Autumn Leaves Tour of Japan begin.
Why stay at Palace Hotel Tokyo
The palace at the window
Its rooms are turned to the moat, the old stone walls and the trees of the palace grounds, with the towers of Marunouchi behind.
Rooms with a balcony
Many of its rooms open onto a balcony, a rare thing in the centre of Tokyo.
Tokyo Station on foot
The Shinkansen platforms are a short walk away, so the first train of a journey is an easy one.
the setting
The city's greenest view, from the middle of the city.
The hotel stands on the site of the old Palace Hotel, where the moat of the Imperial Palace bends past Wadakura. Across the water lie the inner gardens and the East Gardens, open to walk, and behind the hotel the business streets of Marunouchi give way to Ginza within a few minutes by car.
At the door: the moat path, the fountain park beside it, and the red-brick front of Tokyo Station at the end of the avenue.

the rooms
The rooms and suites
The rooms are generous, in pale wood and linen tones, with deep tubs and long windows; many carry a balcony over the gardens. Above them are the club rooms with a lounge of their own, and the suites, whose living rooms look straight across the palace grounds.
On The Classic Cherry Blossom Tour of Japan every room is from the hotel's upper categories or a suite, never the entry room.
to unwind
The spa
The hotel's spa keeps treatment suites with views over the gardens, and the indoor pool and gym sit high above the moat. On our tours the onsen come later in the journey, at the ryokan.
the table
Dining
The house keeps restaurants for Japanese, French and Chinese cooking under one roof, with counters for sushi, tempura and teppanyaki, and a bar much loved by the city. On our tours the welcome dinner is a kaiseki served beneath a Noh stage, and the rest of the city's tables are a short drive away.
