During our big “Shop Around the World” trip, one of our more glamorous stops was the Peninsula Hong Kong. I loved the plushness of the rooms, the discreet service- and making a grand exit from the hotel in one of the signature Rolls-Royces. The newest Peninsula just opened a few days ago in Tokyo. Located in Marunouchi, the Peninsula is the first free-standing luxury hotel to be built in Tokyo in more than a decade. There are 314 spacious guestrooms, a wedding chapel, The Peninsula Spa by ESPA and three luxury jewellery shops, all making their retail debut in Japan ”“ Graff, de Grisogono and Chantecler Tokyo. And yes, those all important Rolls-Royces are on hand to whisk guests to and from the airport in style. The Peninsula Tokyo, 1-8-1 Yurakucho, Chiyoda-ku, 100-0006, Japan Phone: (81-3) 6270 2888
