It is recommended to take the JR Yamanote Line or several subway lines directly, exiting the station towards the Imperial Palace and you will see a large golden ginkgo avenue.

After the meal, you can sit down and slowly reminisce about today's autumn color journey. Accommodation recommendation: Palace Hotel Tokyo If you want to stay comfortable and super convenient I recommend Palace Hotel, located near the Imperial Palace, overlooking the stunning view of Japanese tradition and modernity blend. The hotel has a super high reputation for service, and the autumn garden view is outside the room window, and you can really relax when you go back in the evening. Transportation guide Transportation from Tokyo Station is extremely convenient, surrounded by the JR Yamanote Line and other subways, and within walking distance to the Imperial Palace, there is no need to worry about transfers or getting lost! Remember to check your exit exit in advance, some line exits will be closer to the entrance of Ginkgo Avenue or Gyoen Court. Practical tips - Best foliage season on Ginkgo Avenue: Every year around mid-November to early December, when the weather is clear, the golden color is even more brilliant! - Royal Palace East Palace has more closed days, especially every Monday, Friday and late December-early January. - Photography is recommended to bring a dark jacket, with the golden autumn scenery more layered. - eric’s restaurant requires reservations, and reservations are recommended a week in advance for popular lunch hours.

[Tokyo Luxury Travel Diary | Ultimate Elegance in Tranquility: The Tokyo Palace Hotel] Tokyo's pace is always fast and precise, but for a quiet escape in this city that never sleeps, the Palace Hotel Tokyo is undoubtedly the most iconic. For this trip, I chose to stay at this five-star hotel in Marunouchi— Address: 1-1-1 Marunouchi, Chiyoda City, Tokyo 100-0005, Japan. The entire trip revolved around the concepts of "tranquility, elegance, and craftsmanship." From the accommodations to every itinerary, exquisite details of Japanese aesthetics are reflected. Accommodation Experience | A Fusion of Modern and Natural Aesthetics The room's palette is dominated by off-white, wood, and light gray, creating a sense of layered space. Soft light filters across the tatami-like texture of the floor, complemented by low-saturation furniture—a warm yet sophisticated aesthetic. From the floor-to-ceiling windows, one can see the lush greenery of the Imperial Palace Gardens, and through the morning mist, one can hear the sounds of Tokyo waking up. The suite I stayed in this time featured a private desk area and a Japanese tea set, echoing the photos I took: wood-grain partitions, minimalist lighting, and stone-grained tabletops perfectly embody the concept of "power in silence." The bathroom, with its gray-gold color scheme and marble countertops reflecting soft light, exudes a luxurious yet unpretentious feel. The hotel's fragrance, sourced from the Japanese perfumer "Aromatic No.5," features subtle notes of cedar and yuzu, creating a relaxing and calming atmosphere. Itinerary | A Route Intertwined with Culture and Design The first day's itinerary begins in the Imperial Palace Outer Gardens, a mere five-minute walk away. It's recommended to depart early in the morning, as the silhouettes of the pine trees in the morning light are particularly poetic. Then, head to the Ginza Six-chome shopping district, which is more than just a shopping district; it's a showcase for the fusion of modern architecture and art. For lunch, I recommend making a reservation at the renowned Ginza sushi restaurant "Sushi Saito," renowned for its three-Michelin-starred sushi and impeccable craftsmanship. Reservations are required at least one month in advance. The next afternoon, you can plan a visit to the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo (MOMAT), a 15-minute walk from the hotel. Its exhibitions often focus on the theme of "Contemporary Japanese Life," offering insightful insights. Transportation Integration | Convenience and Tranquility From Narita Airport, take the Narita Express (N'EX) directly to Tokyo Station, a journey of approximately 60 minutes. From there, the hotel is a 10-minute walk away. From Haneda Airport, take the Keikyu Line to Higashi-Ginza and transfer to the Marunouchi Subway Line, a journey of approximately 35 minutes. The hotel offers an airport shuttle service (reservations required). The shuttle is equipped with Wi-Fi and Evian mineral water. The journey is stable and quiet, making it ideal for business or long-distance travelers. Dining Experience | A Leveled Experience from Taste to Visuals For dinner, I chose Crown, the hotel's restaurant. The chef's signature blend of modern French cuisine and Japanese seasonal flavors is the essence of the cuisine. The appetizer started with sea urchin and Yamagata daikon foam, and the main course, wagyu beef with truffle sauce, was rich yet not cloying. The entire dining space continues the aesthetic of the room: natural light, simple lines, and delicate wood textures. Breakfast was another pleasant surprise—everything from croissants to miso soup was freshly made, with both Japanese and Western options available. If you have more time, enjoy breakfast on the terrace overlooking the Imperial Palace moat—a tranquil luxury. Space Design | Every Corner Worth Capturing A few photos captured during my stay perfectly capture the details of the space: • The living room's warm beige tones and soft lighting create a subtle yet elegant atmosphere. • The desk and glass partitions are inspired by the traditional Japanese concept of "borrowed scenery"—creating a sense of extension within a limited space. • The interplay of light and shadow in the tea room softens the rhythm of time. • After neatly hanging and arranging my ironed shirts, the exquisite wardrobe and soft lighting strips showcase the beauty of order in life. Every corner feels like a still painting, and I am merely a temporary visitor within it. 🌸 Conclusion | This journey has allowed me to cultivate my character, truly relax, and recharge my weary mind and body❤️ The most precious thing about this luxurious trip to Tokyo wasn't the fame or the price, but the thoughtfulness and restraint in every detail. The Tokyo Palace Hotel taught me that luxury isn't about accumulation, but about leaving space. As night falls, the city's lights and shadows are reflected on the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the entire space stills, achieving a gentle balance—this, I believe, is the meaning of my journey.
