My Stay at The Prince Park Tower Tokyo: A Hidden Gem in the Heart of the City
When I touched down in Tokyo, I expected a fast-paced city break—full of bright lights, chaotic ramen joints, and high-tech everything. But The Prince Park Tower Tokyo? It changed the whole game. This place wasn’t just a hotel—it was a quiet retreat in the middle of the city’s buzz. Just steps from Shiba Park and Tokyo Tower, it offered a peaceful vibe I didn’t know I needed.
Early Morning Gym Runs
I landed late but still woke up at sunrise (jet lag’s got nothing on me). I hit the hotel’s gym first thing. It’s sleek, super clean, and packed with all the equipment I’m used to back home—Technogym weights, treadmills, the whole setup. There’s even a view of the park from some machines, which is rare for Tokyo.
I appreciated the space—it’s not just a token gym for show. As someone who played QB in college, I value having a proper place to move. There’s room to stretch, lift, and grind out a solid session. If you’re trying to stay active while traveling, this hotel makes it easy.
Spa Time: Tokyo’s Best Recovery Session
After the workout, I checked out the hotel’s spa. Game-changer. There’s a full onsen bath here, using natural hot spring water pulled from deep beneath the city. It’s quiet, calm, and hits every sore muscle like a reset button.
No background music, no neon lights—just warm water, wood panels, and the faint smell of minerals in the steam. I sat there for what felt like an hour and came out completely refreshed. If you’re the type who likes to recover hard after a day of exploring or training, this is your spot.
Where to Eat: My Tokyo Food Highlights
Let’s talk food. If you stay at Prince Park Tower and don’t eat your way through Tokyo, you’re doing it wrong.
Breakfast at the hotel: A solid buffet with fresh fruit, local staples, and surprisingly good coffee. There’s miso soup, pickled veggies, and other traditional Japanese items if you want to switch things up from pancakes.
Local Ramen Spot: Just a 10-minute walk away, I found a little ramen joint with no English sign and a long line. That’s always a good sign. The tonkotsu broth was rich, the noodles had the perfect bite, and the place felt like it hadn’t changed in 30 years. Simple, loud, and perfect.
Dinner at the hotel: I went for the kaiseki course meal. It’s not cheap, but you get what you pay for. Multiple small plates of seasonal ingredients, fresh sashimi, tempura, and one of the best matcha desserts I’ve ever had. A total contrast from the ramen shop, but both felt authentically Japanese in their own way.
Exploring the Park and Neighborhood
The hotel backs right onto Shiba Park, which makes it easy to get fresh air and a break from the city’s intensity. It’s a great spot to walk, jog, or just sit and people-watch. You’re also super close to Zojoji Temple, one of Tokyo’s oldest and most beautiful temples. I wandered in at golden hour and felt like I’d stepped into another world.
With Tokyo Tower looming above and quiet paths all around, this part of the city feels balanced. You can find peace here, even in the middle of it all.
Getting Around: Train Access Made Easy
If you’re wondering about getting around—this hotel is in a prime spot. It’s within walking distance of Hamamatsucho Station, which connects you to most major lines. I rode the JR Yamanote Line to Shibuya, Ueno, and Akihabara with zero hassle. Trains in Tokyo are clean, fast, and on-time—it’s the kind of system you wish your city had.
Final Thoughts
I booked The Prince Park Tower Tokyo through Expedia, and it turned out to be the perfect base for my trip. Whether I was lifting weights, soaking in a hot bath, or exploring the city’s parks and temples, everything felt easy and accessible. It’s a mix of quiet luxury and perfect location.
If you want a hotel in Tokyo that lets you enjoy both the peaceful and energetic sides of the city, this is it. Book your stay here!
It’s not flashy, and it’s not trying to be. But it gets everything right—and for me, that’s what makes a hotel unforgettable.
