Our Inspector's Highlights
  • The tranquil spa's soft, contemporary décor comes from Yukio Hashimoto, who also did the interiors for the hotel.
  • Muted dark brown and gold hues, beige marble and dark woods mix with Japanese elements, including aji-ishi granite from Kagawa Prefecture and striking sculptural washi paper light fixtures from well-known artist Eriko Horiki.
  • You’ll have a hard time prying yourself from the relaxation room, where dim lighting, dark bubinga wood floors, cream marble and woven panels separating the comfortable lounge beds create a cozy, inviting atmosphere.
  • In the nine treatment rooms, you’ll see shoji (rice paper) screens that let in light through the yukimi — a window on the bottom that typically was put in to let people appreciate the snowy landscape from inside the warm room — and yabane-patterned fabric ceiling coverings.
  • They also have luxurious touches, such as private showers and adjustable heated beds.
Things to Know
  • If you took a long-haul flight to the city, the Jet-lag Eliminator aromatherapy massage will get you back on track with either an energy-boosting oil or a calming oil to help you sleep.
  • In addition to the standard list of facials and massages, this well-appointed spa also offers manicures, pedicures and waxing.
  • The Tokyo spa also curates a selection of men-only services. Mankind gives you an aromatherapy massage targeting the tension in your neck, shoulders and back, and then works on your feet with deep pressure-point techniques.
The Treatments
  • For a well-rounded treatment, choose one of the Peninsula Ceremonies, which draw on a fusion of Japanese, Oriental, Ayurvedic and European therapies. They begin with a welcome ritual — a soothing tea ceremony — and a fresh ginger foot buff to balance your energy.
  • Using deep kneading, rolling and stretching, therapists relieve muscles and spur the healthy flow of qi, or vital life force energy in the Keihatsu Enlightenment Massage.
  • The Balinese massage employs long strokes to help you relax, and the Purva Karma Four Hand Massage sends you into a state of bliss with two therapists unfurling your knots simultaneously with hot stones.
  • Promising to banish dull skin, the Skin Brightener Age Defyer Facial entails a deep cleaning and exfoliation, an intensive eye treatment, and complexion-clearing lymphatic drainage and acupressure techniques. A brightening face mask encourages skin cell renewal while you enjoy a scalp massage.
  • The Skin Rescue hydrates dry skin, while the deep-cleaning Oil Controller clears congestion and reduces inflammation.
The Facilities
  • Be sure to arrive an hour before your treatment to unwind in the mosaic-tiled Thermal Suite, where you can rotate among the crystal steam room, dry sauna and aromatherapy experience showers.
  • Post-treatment, extend your spa time at the fifth-floor amber Namibian granite indoor pool area, which overlooks the Imperial Gardens.
  • An oval accent on the ceiling reflects on the surface of the 65-foot-long pool, making for an eye-catching focal point.
  • Or opt for unwinding in the adjacent vitality pool, where its alfresco terrace lets you lounge and take in another vista of the gardens and Hibiya Park.
