Palace Hotel Tokyo

Executive summary by darmansjah

Dip into evian’s first spa in Japan, the exclusive 1,200 square metre area fitted with just five treatment rooms and a spa suite – each aptly named after a peak in the French Alps, and boasting panoramic views of Mt fuji on a clear day. The spa’s Vitalizing Signature comes highly recommended, the 50 or 80 minute body treatment inspired by the Japanese philosophy of seitai, where pressure is applied using fingers,

thumbs and elbows to stimulate energy flow. After, get snug in the heated baths, then pick between the marble sauna, cold plunge pool, dry sauna or the scenic indoor pool, before taking a quick shuteye at the relaxation lounges.
