- I was fortunate enough to stay at the legendary Park Hyatt Tokyo, located in the bustling Shinjuku ward of Tokyo. What's the Park Hyatt Tokyo like in 2024, just months before its scheduled first renovation ever?
I often hear of the Park Hyatt Tokyo's reputation as being one of, if not the best Park Hyatt in the entire world. Prior to my stay, I was skeptical of this claim as the hotel has been around for almost 30 years without a significant renovation. I am not a fan of older hotels that have not been renovated. Thankfully, my skepticism was unfounded when my taxi dropped me off in the ground floor lobby. Like I say in the video, the ambiance and the service are impeccable. It's truly an oasis in such a busy part of Tokyo (one of the most densely populated places in the world). The hotel itself, while you definitely can tell it's old, is extremely well maintained and at no point did I feel the hard product was inadequate.
I had an amazing stay and would rank this as one of my favorite hotels in the world for its impeccable service, comfortable rooms, and exclusive ambiance. Additionally, the hotel is extremely generous to its World of Hyatt Globalist members, providing an extensive and high quality breakfast at its famous Girandole restaurant or room service.
In this video, I give you a tour of my Deluxe View Room. This room is in a King bed configuration.
Looking forward to the new Park Hyatt Tokyo, debuting in 2025.
Thanks for watching! - กีฬา
gotta say the room aged like fine wine. considering its 30 year old age and super popular hotel, the cleanliness speaks to how meticulous they are taking care of the property. very nice tour, Glenn! the small tv above the bathroom vanity is wild though hahaha
Hey Daniel thank you! I agree I loved my stay. They are now closed and renovations should be in full swing. So looking forward to what they cook up!
“I don’t even wanna know how much these cost” at every minibar 😂
Nice video
How long did you stay at this hotel
Just 1 night! Thanks for watching :D
Would you recommend the Park Hyatt Tokyo over the Park Hyatt Kyoto?
TBH I don't think PH in New York is the flagship, or it maybe a flagship for symbolic reason, the best PH are always operated in Asia, Park Hyatt in Kyoto, Niseko, Bangkok, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Jakarta. But to be fair, as a hotel lovers I would said, luxury hotels in Asia are way better than the same brand in Europe and America, because the size of room and standard of interior design, Asia's always has the highest level. Anyway, really like your video, subscribed and liked! Hope you could get to China to exploring more beautiful luxury hotels with the best value.
Thank you so much for your comment! I totally agree with everything you said here. I think Hyatt themselves consider the PHNY as their flagship which is sad since it's not anywhere near the top quality the brand produces in Asia. Actually, I am planning a trip to China right now. In Western media there are basically 0 reviews of luxury hotels in China, and going by the pictures I am so impressed and can't wait to visit. On my bucket list are the PH hotels across all the major cities, Mandarin Oriental Beijing, J Hotel in Shanghai Tower, FS Guangzhou, Rosewood Guangzhou, Rosewood HK, and The Peninsula HK. I also am thinking of visiting Macau. Thanks again for your wonderful comment!
@@GlennTedja wow! Thank you so much for your reply! As a Chinese hotel lover( I don’t know how to say that in English properly, just a 酒店控), there are numerous great luxury hotels with much bigger room and much cheaper rate compared with those in the West. You know for everyone-knows reasons, there is a huge information gap between China and outside world, and this is also affects hospitality industry, so many hotel lovers from the western world don’t know anything about the hotels in China, tbh, you will find it’s a hidden gem and it has some of the best modern urban hotels with great design, and it’s cheap! You know for example Park Hyatt in Paris where I based, will cost you 1500 euro per night, but PH in Shenzhen and Shanghai only cost you 300 Euro but much better design, bigger rooms and better view, there are so many luxury hotels in the skyscraper allow you enjoy the panoramic views, of course for the historical reasons, unlike China, most luxury hotels in Europe are built in old buildings while Chinese hotels always built in a very modern newly-built high-rise building, plus the cost of living is very different, all of these factors are contributing to the reason why Hotel in China always has the best value. Anyway you really got a great taste, and I think we are like-minded people as I’ve been to most of the hotels that you are planning to go! Enjoy your hotel visit in China and look forward to seeing your videos!
@@GlennTedja I could give you my taste but these would predominately locate in the city as opposed to resorts:
Before the list, a tip to you is newer is always better than older properties, better choose a hotel that opened within 8 years.
Beijing: Mandarin Oriental( one of the expensive boutiques hotel as it only has 72 rooms), Bulgari, Rosewood, Puxuan.
Shanghai: Park Hyatt, Bulgari, Edition( never choose standard room, suite would be much better for Edition), Peninsula, Regent( just opened last month), W, Bellagio，The middle house, Capella, MGM. and to be fair I personally don’t recommend you to J hotel as it’s not that good and so many hotel lovers in China don’t like that.
Guangzhou: Four Seasons, Rosewood, Mandarin Oriental
Shenzhen: Park Hyatt, Andaz, Mandarin Oriental, Nanshan Shangri-La ( Just opened last month!), Raffles
Suzhou( very close to Shanghai) : Four Seasons, Park Hyatt, Kimpton.
Nanjing: Ritz Carlton( The world best urban Ritz Carlton) , Andaz, Jumeriah
Hangzhou: Park Hyatt, Conrad
Xiamen: Qishang, Waldorf Astoria( the most beautiful WA in the world!) ,Conrad, W, Andaz
HK: Rosewood( the best rosewood in the world), St-Regis, Regent, The Upper House, Mandarin Oriental Landmark, Four Seasons, Peninsula.
Macau: Ritz Carlton, Londoner
I could give you some tips on the selection of the room for the above hotel if you would like to have
Enjoy!
@@qicui9461 This is absolutely amazing. I will be saving this list to my notes. Thank you so much! Good to know about the J Hotel... maybe I'll just visit for a drink or something. It's a shame as I love hotels with nice views. You have amazing taste!
@@qicui9461 It's such a huge injustice. I had a feeling the hotels in China are extremely underrepresented in the Western world and your comments have confirmed that. I absolutely cannot wait to visit now and I think my trip just extended from 2 weeks to close to a month thanks to you. It'll be a great excuse to brush up on my Mandarin. While I do want to visit some of these luxury hotels in Europe, I can't justify paying $2k+ for a night when I know I can spend that much money and stay almost a week at some of the hotels you mentioned, which look more stunning as well. So excited!!!
Hi 5! I don’t really eat chocolate too and I hate to say that most welcome amenities from hotels is chocolate 😂
Haha we’re very rare! Hopefully you travel with other people who love chocolate 🤣
Mau :(
