Description
The Peninsula is a landmark in Tokyo with a premium location in the business district of Marunouchi, opposite the Imperial Palace Gardens. From here it is a 2 minute walk to the Imperial Theatre, a 5 minute drive to the renowned Tsukiji Fish Market and a 10 minute train ride to the vibrant nightlife of Rappongi.
The luxurious guest rooms and suites at The Peninsula are among the most spacious in Tokyo, combining Peninsula elegance with contemporary Japanese design. The Grand Deluxe Rooms and Suites have views over the Imperial Palace Gardens whilst the Executive Suites have futuristic views of Ginza’s busy shopping street. The signature marble bathrooms live up to Tokyo’s high tech reputation with TVs and mood lighting.
The Peninsula's many restaurants and bars do not disappoint, with some of Tokyo's finest cuisine being served at the Cantonese Hei Fung Terrace in the traditional cool elegance of a Chinese garden. In contrast, the avant-garde designed Peter is home to hip interactive entertainment technology and meticulous service and technically perfect presentation can be found at Kyoto Tsuruya, the Peninsula's exceptional Japanese restaurant.
The high standards of design and service, a signature of the hotel's bars and restaurants, can be found in the health club, gym and ESPA spa where relaxation and rejuvenation are high on the agenda and are delivered in the most luxury of modern surroundings.

When to travel
Tokyo kicks off its year with cold winter days and the odd snowfall. Although temperatures occasionally drop below freezing, winter (December to February) is usually reasonable. Spring (March to May) brings pleasant, warm days, and, of course, cherry blossoms – early April is probably the best time to view the blooms. Summer (June to August) is hot and muggy. Late June can see torrential rains. The temperature and humidity are at their worst in August. Apart from spring, autumn (September to November) is the most pleasant season as temperatures cool down to a cosy level and days are often clear and fine. Autumn also means the return of the dramatic foliage season, when the parks and green areas of the city mellow into varying hues of orange and red.
