There's no denying that The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho is one of the finest luxury properties in a city that's packed with excellent options. It feels like a world unto itself, really, as it towers over seemingly the entire Tokyo landscape. Incredible city views are found almost everywhere — from the bar and restaurants to the rooms. The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho is a refined property, from the doting service to the just-buzzing-enough Sky Lounge, where locals and hotel guests mingle over cocktails and sunsets. You'll find an elegant spa, proper gym, and excellent pool here — all with stunning Tokyo views. The location near Hanzomon and Akasaka also feels a bit more lively than the Tokyo luxury hotels clustered around Tokyo Station. However, if being near the business district is a must, the Four Seasons Hotel Tokyo at Marunouchi is a solid alternative.
What Is the Scene Like at the Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho?
A luxury oasis that's high in the sky, with stunning Tokyo views
The Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho makes an incredible first impression. Stepping out of the elevators into the 35th floor lobby — the hotel's lowest floor — it's hard not to notice the jaw-dropping views of Tokyo. Soak them up in the chic and sexy bar, the refined Japanese restaurant, or in the lobby while you wait to check in. But, if you miss them there, fear not, because views astound from rooms, the gym, and pool as well. The service here is impeccable, and the vibe at the hotel can't help but feel exclusive. All around, luxe fabrics, marble, hardwood, and just the right touch of shimmer envelope every surface in tasteful measure. It's one of the top hotels in Tokyo, and pulls in well-heeled travelers (and locals), drawn by the destination dining and drinking, spacious rooms, and central location.
Where is the Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho located?
In central Tokyo, atop two metro stations in the Kioi district
You likely haven't heard of the Kioi district — which sits essentially in the center of the part of Tokyo most tourists will visit. However, it's an incredibly convenient home base for staying in the city and feels a bit livelier than the precincts to the north of Tokyo Station, where this hotel's many competitors are located. Nearby Hanzomon has lots of cute restaurants and ramen shops, while luxury malls are seemingly all around. There are two metro stations within a five-minute walk (Akasaka-Mitsuke and Nagatacho), and the Akasaka Royal Complex is also nearby. Buzzy Roppongi, with its high-end malls and booming arts scene, is only 15 minutes away by metro. It takes about the same amount of time to reach wild Shibuya by metro as well. You'll need around an hour to reach Haneda Airport by public transit, while Narita Airport is 90 minutes away by subway and train.
What Are the Rooms Like at Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho?
Spacious and sharp, Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho rooms all offer stunning Tokyo views
With every room on floor 35 or higher, astounding Tokyo views are guaranteed in all rooms at the Prince Gallery Tokyo Kioicho. Choose those facing east for sunrise views and vantages of the Imperial Palace, and those facing west for sunsets and — on a good day — Mt. Fuji. Regardless, the sprawl of Tokyo is as much a design feature in these rooms as anything else. It's especially lovely to take in from the windowside banquettes and seating in all rooms.
Interiors are modern, but classic, with muted shades of gray, brown, orange, and coral throughout. Plush carpets and soft furnishings add just the right touch of homey appeal, though there are ample outlets and workspace for those staying here on business as well. Multi-room suites are available for travelers looking to splurge or families who need more space.
Features include turndown service, customized newspaper delivery, flat-screen TVs, air-conditioning, and free Wi-Fi, as well as touch panels to control blinds and lighting. Bathrooms are as luxurious as the hotel itself, with separate soaking tubs and rainfall showers (a shower with the view of Tokyo in the distance is something incredibly special). Expect luxury toiletries and fine bath linens and bathrobes in all rooms as well.
