The first “Essence of Japan” event was held in collaboration with 8 finest ryokans.
On May 17, 2022, Palace Hotel Tokyo celebrates its 10th anniversary.
Since it first opened its doors in 1961, Palace Hotel has established a rich history spanning over half a century. After an extensive three-year rebuild from the ground-up, it began its new story as Palace Hotel Tokyo on May 17, 2012.
To commemorate this 10th anniversary, we will be offering a series of events, accommodation packages and restaurant & bar menus throughout the year.
With heartfelt sincerity and an unwavering commitment to excellence, we will continue to provide omotenashi – Japanise hospitality – throughout the decade to come.
