Palace Hotel Tokyo, a luxury property that has become one of Japan’s most beloved hotels since its debut in 2012, has been awarded the prestigious Three Keys by the MICHELIN Guide. This recognition is a testament to the hotel’s unwavering commitment to delivering the world’s most ‘extraordinary stay’ experiences, ensuring that every guest’s stay is truly exceptional and memorable and exceeding the guide’s rigorous benchmarks. As one of only three properties in Tokyo to receive the MICHELIN Guide’s highest distinction, Palace Hotel Tokyo continues to elevate its status. It is the only Japanese-brand hotel to receive such elite standing and hold the Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star rating for nine consecutive years. Earlier this year, its Evian SPA TOKYO also achieved a Five-Star rating, making it one of only four in Japan to do so. Senior Managing Director and General Manager Masaru Watanabe expressed his delight at the recognition, stating, “For decades, MICHELIN Star ratings have stood for exceptionalism, offering highly respected expertise and guidance to gourmands the world over on the most revered dining experiences to be had. Now receiving recognition not only for our dining offerings but also for our hotel from one of the world’s most distinguished arbiters of excellence in hospitality is an incredible honour.” MICHELIN describes key-rated properties as “places that significantly add to your experience as a traveller.” Each property is meticulously and anonymously vetted and judged based on categories such as architecture and interior design, quality and consistency of service, personality and character, and contribution to the guest experience in a particular setting. Reflecting the “crème de la crème,” MICHELIN’s key-rated hotels are deemed to be of “remarkable quality,” with the Three-Key-worthy recognized for offering “one of the most outstanding experiences in the world.” Watanabe added, “As an independent hotel that’s worked tirelessly to establish its place in the ever-competitive global luxury hotel industry, it’s significant to us – as a brand and as a team – to achieve such a prestigious distinction. Our Michelin Three Keys will strengthen our resolve to continuously elevate the hospitality that Palace Hotel Tokyo offers as we welcome travellers searching for the best of the best.” Described as being “as close as you can get to actually staying on the verdant grounds of the Imperial Palace,” a stay at the Palace Hotel Tokyo offers a unique experience that other luxury hotels cannot match, according to the MICHELIN Guide. This latest accolade solidifies Palace Hotel Tokyo’s position as a beacon of luxury and exceptional hospitality in the heart of Japan.
