Peninsula Hotel “International by design, Japanese by inspiration”

It appears that all of Tokyo’s roads lead straight down to The Peninsula Hotel, situated slap-bang on the crossroads of a cluster of Tokyo’s most exciting neighbourhoods. Its Japanese lantern shaped exterior warmly welcomes guests inside, providing an elegant, calm oasis. With a considered design sense that reflects the past in its appreciation of the nation’s former capital and cultural centre Kyoto, The Peninsula still maintains a contemporary ambience and plush finish.
The Peninsula’s situation couldn’t be more perfect for guests on business or pleasure-seekers alike. It’s only a stones-throw away from the majestic Imperial Palace and its beautiful gardens, upmarket shopping area of Ginza and financial district. It’s also only a 5-minute taxi ride from the worlds largest fish market, Tsukjii, and a 10-minute ride from the pumping nightlife of Roppongi. On top of that, it has the luxury of housing a below ground exit into Tokyo’s flawlessly efficient metro system, so you can shoot off to any part of the city you desire and arrive in record time.
