Deluxe King Room at Palace Hotel Tokyo

The hotel stands beside the Imperial Palace area in Marunouchi, with views toward palace grounds, gardens, the moat and central Tokyo.

evian SPA TOKYO occupies 1,200 square metres on the fifth floor and is identified by official materials as Japan’s only evian spa.

The wellness floor combines five treatment rooms, a dual-bedded spa suite, heated baths, a cold plunge pool, marble and dry saunas, a Jacuzzi and relaxation lounges.

The hotel has 284 guestrooms and suites, positioned as unusually spacious for central Tokyo, with selected categories offering Palace Garden or skyline views.

The property has 10 restaurants and bars spanning Japanese, French, Chinese and all-day dining formats, alongside lounges and round-the-clock in-room dining.

The 2012 building is a curving glass, concrete and stone structure designed by Mitsubishi Jisho Sekkei.

The site’s hotel history began with Hotel Teito in 1947, followed by Palace Hotel’s opening in 1961; the current building is a full redevelopment rather than a renovation.

A 127-square-metre fitness room operates 24 hours on the same fifth-floor wellness level as the pool and spa.

Meetings and events facilities include eight multi-purpose function rooms, a formal boardroom seating 28 and three smaller meeting rooms.

Tokyo Station is a 10-minute walk away, while Marunouchi Naka-dori, a major shopping and dining street, is only steps from the hotel.
