Location & Hotel

Tokyo, the vibrant metropolis and biggest city in the world, pulsates with energy and excitement on every corner. Its vibrant streets are a melting pot of culture, innovation and tradition, where towering skyscrapers stand alongside historic temples. Tokyo’s hospitality scene is as diverse as the city itself, offering a range of accommodation from opulent luxury hotels to cosy traditional ryokans.

Marunouchi, one of Tokyo’s major districts located in the Chiyoda ward, is located in the heart of the city and boasts gleaming skyscrapers, historic landmarks and a lively atmosphere. The wide boulevards lined with chic boutiques, luxury department stores and upscale restaurants attract locals and visitors alike. Amidst the bustling streets you’ll find iconic landmarks such as Tokyo Station, the Imperial Palace and the historic Mitsubishi Ichigokan Museum. Marunouchi seamlessly blends tradition with innovation, offering a perfect mix of modern architecture and cultural heritage.

At the heart of this dynamic neighbourhood stands The Peninsula Tokyo, a beacon of luxury and sophistication. The Peninsula Tokyo occupies a prime location in a striking high-rise building on a corner facing the Imperial Palace Gardens. The building boasts a sleek and contemporary design, with expansive windows offering breath-taking views of the city skyline and the Imperial Palace Gardens. Its modern facade seamlessly blends with the surrounding skyscrapers, while its distinctive shape stands out as a landmark in the Tokyo skyline.

Inside the hotel, guests are greeted by an atmosphere of timeless elegance and luxury. The interior design by renowned designer Yukio Hashimoto combines classic Japanese elements with modern sophistication. The hotel has an exceptional art collection with more than 1000 works, mainly by Japanese artists. This ranges from the Hanabi crystal chandelier in the lobby, which is inspired by fireworks, to the details in the rooms, such as sliding doors made from individual pieces of walnut wood. Of particular note is the stunning “Lying Dragon Gate” in the lobby, a work of art by Keisen Hama. The work depicts a dragon gracefully winding around a gate, symbolizing power, wisdom and prosperity in Japanese culture.

As guests enter the lobby, they are captivated by the dynamic energy and cultural significance conveyed by this impressive artwork. These carefully selected artworks enhance the feeling of grandeur and elegance, creating a captivating environment for guests to enjoy upon arrival at this iconic hotel.
