Palace Hotel Tokyo
Tokyo

A firm Ampersand Favourite, the Palace Hotel Tokyo enjoys a prime location in Marunouchi, offering stunning views over the Imperial Palace Gardens and Tokyo’s iconic skyline, with Mount Fuji visible in the distance. This spectacular luxury hotel has a distinguished postwar history of hosting VIPs in Tokyo’s financial district and remains one of the best hotels in Tokyo since its full renovation and reopening in 2012.

A Refined Stay in the Heart of Tokyo

The chic, contemporary interior design of the Palace Hotel Tokyo exudes a fresh, inviting atmosphere. Upon entering the light-filled, jade-green lobby, guests are immediately welcomed by soothing pastel tones and subtle Japanese design elements. Modern artworks are thoughtfully incorporated into the hotel’s aesthetic, creating a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation. This tasteful design has earned the hotel recurring recognition from prestigious publications like Condé Nast and Forbes Travel Guide.

Spacious Rooms with Stunning Views

The hotel’s award-winning rooms and suites are renowned for their generous size, exceptional comfort and luxurious marble bathrooms. Most rooms feature private balconies, offering exclusive outdoor spaces to take in the breathtaking views of the Imperial Palace Gardens and Tokyo’s skyline. For an even more memorable experience, we recommend booking one of the higher-category rooms or suites that come with spacious outdoor terraces to enjoy these iconic views in ultimate privacy.

Whether you're dining al fresco or inside, each restaurant offers a unique and memorable culinary experience. The hotel’s attentive service is renowned for going above and beyond, with staff eager to assist with personalised experiences, from arranging lunch with sumo wrestlers to organising bespoke architecture tours with local experts.

For relaxation and recreation, guests can take advantage of the swimming pool and fitness centre, both of which are complimentary during your stay. The hotel also offers a spa and sauna services for an additional fee.

Unbeatable Location in Tokyo’s Business District

The Palace Hotel Tokyo is ideally situated just minutes from Tokyo Station, the bullet train nexus, and the Otemachi subway hub, making it an excellent base for exploring the city and beyond. Whether you’re visiting for business or leisure, its central location places you at the heart of Tokyo’s dynamic urban landscape, with easy access to key cultural attractions, shopping districts and transportation hubs.

Client Testimonials

We have just returned back from a wonderful trip. Thank you very much for organising everything. The transfer was excellent – for once they had perfect car seats. The villa was lovely, just what we needed and the hotel had helpfully put us as far away as possible from everyone else. The breakfast buffet was the best I have ever seen – and I am slightly obsessive over breakfast!! There was an incredible choice, something for everyone and so beautifully presented. A real highlight of the trip. Thank you again for sorting everything - and at such short notice!
- Redmayne family, Phuket
Without question, you put together the best trip I have ever taken. We were shown around like visiting dignitaries, the hotels were fantastic and the itinerary was just right. Everybody I know will hear about how amazing Ampersand is!
- Leslie Siben, India
We really enjoyed the trip and were happy that we squeezed so much into a few short days. The Burmese people were lovely and the sites were fantastic. We really enjoyed the balloon ride and would highly suggest it to others in the future. The trip went super smoothly and a good time plus learning happened for all. Yangon was nice as the Strand was quite amazing and we of course loved the giant gold temple. Many thanks for all of your help and look forward to future travel with you.
- Wallace Family, Burma
Ballyfin was great - we loved it! Best things were the amount of space, it felt like you had the whole place to yourself, the history of the house, and the staff. We'd definitely recommend it. Thanks very much for all the help getting it booked!
- Mr Wyburd, Ireland
Everything you did for us whilst we were away was hugely appreciated, and Ampersand has been exemplary in every way. I'll always recommend you!
- Mr Richard Stoughton, Sri Lanka
I had a very lovely time and was looked after splendidly. My first visit to India could not have been better, save for being longer! But I shall return at some point and I shall look to you to make the arrangements.
- Matthew Nicklin, North India
So many highlights to choose from! The hotels were amazing but Maya Villa was a highlight… I loved just hanging out in the hammock reading my book and watching the peacocks chase the cows!
- Krista Weir, Sri Lanka
Ampersand provided a bespoke and flexible holiday, tailored to my every whim. Their highly professional staff had only one goal which was to arrange an exceptional holiday and some unforgettable experiences in India. I have no hesitation in fully recommending them and they will be the first company I approach in the future - 10/10
- Anonymous, India
Difficult to articulate just how good the service from you and your team really was. We know you will continue to do well and hope we have the chance to seek your assistance again before long.
- Mr & Mrs Manson, North India
Getting to Amanpulo from Manila was very simple and the beach was the most beautiful I’d ever been on; pristine white sand, not a single piece of rubbish in sight. You get your own solar powered golf buggy to drive around resort (and a butler at request). The views from the Hillside Casita were spectacular!
- Mr Wyburd, Philippines
I would recommend Ampersand without any hesitation!!! The best travel agent that I’ve ever had. Everything – from the individual care and attention in planning the trip, through to the efficiency of the agents on the ground in India – was handled brilliantly. An absolutely first-class service all round!
- Matthew Annable, Rajasthan, India
Ampersand’s preparation, attention to detail and interaction before and during our trip show exactly why good travel agents have a role in today’s internet booking age. They were a delight to deal with!
- Mr David Wallace, North India
I barely know where to begin... though a sincere 'thank you' would be the best. You have organised this trip perfectly. May was an inspiring and delightful companion in Myanmar – thoroughly professional and friendly at the same time. My accommodation throughout has been superb, especially The Governor's Residence and The Mandarin Oriental. The view from the cottage at Inle Lake was beautiful and I loved every moment of being there. And here I am now on the last leg of this extended holiday at my favourite place. I could stay here for ever, the peace, silence and surroundings all amazing, plus the people and the whole aura of Vana. Thank you for much, and I look forward to speaking to you on my return.
- Ms Margulies, Burma, India & Thailand
We had a wonderful holiday - everything was perfect. Thank you for helping us to make a thoughtful plan to enjoy and make most out of our trip. The places we visited, the guides, the transportation and driver, the hotels selected... Everything was great!
- Jaime Benitez, South India
Difficult to choose the highlight of the trip, can’t choose between… 1) Taj Mahal & Oberoi Amarvilas. 2) Ranthambore. 3) Lake Palace. We have to say a particular thank you for selecting Parmod as our driver. He is a delightful and kind man who took our holiday and our enjoyment as his responsibility. Thank you for putting together such an amazing trip for us. The balance of city and rural destinations was perfect for us and the variety of rooms and hotel types brilliant. Our driver and guides also added so much to the trip with their knowledge of India’s history and culture and their willingness to discuss it both from a professional and personal angle.
- Carruthers family, North India
I thought the Ampersand team was outstanding. We couldn’t have hoped for anything more.
- Mr Geoffrey Johnson, India
