"This very swanky new addition to Tokyo's increasingly crowded luxury hotel scene offers an unbeatable location."
Concierge
"The big draw is its location across the street from the Imperial Palace and a short stroll from the center of Ginza."
i
There are 314 guest rooms going up to the 24th floor, but be sure to nab a high one and be specific about a palace view, or you could end up staring at office buildings.
Fodor's
"From the staff in caps and sharp suits... to the shimmering gold glow emitting from the top floors, the 24-floor Peninsula Tokyo exudes elegance and grace."

"It is worth the slightly inconvenient location to experience the epitome of luxury at this ultramodern, two-floor hotel."
Time Out
"Situated on Meguro-dori between Meguro and Gakugeidai stations, this hotel is the result of a complete overhaul of the former Hotel Meguro."
