In celebration of Hanami, Palace Hotel Tokyo is collaborating with contemporary artist Noritaka Tatehana, who is known for designing Lady Gaga’s heel-less platform. This ultimate ‘Pink Petals’ Experience includes:
- One made-to-measure pair of ‘sakura‘ pink crystal heel-less shoes, including a visit to the artist’s atelier
- A one-night stay in the guest’s choice of suites
- Club Lounge access & privileges
- Breakfast at the guest’s choice of the Club Lounge, Grand Kitchen or in-room
- A ‘Pink Petals’ dessert & cocktail at The Palace Lounge
- Package rates starting at JP¥2,000,000
Between March 26 and April 23, the hotel’s main lobby will also be transformed with a cubic art installation of the artist’s abstract interpretation of the sakura’s pink petals in full bloom in the form of numerous kazaguruma (風車), the Japanese word for ‘windmills’ – a seasonal term indicative of Springtime in Japan.
The Palace Lounge and Royal Bar will be serving up a special ‘Pink Petals’ cocktail made with elder flower liqueur, citron vodka and grapefruit juice as its base. A pour of rose wine forms the cocktail’s second layer while flower petals floating atop its surface are reminiscent of the beauty of cherry blossom trees as they shed their petals and the transience of the seasons.
In addition, The Palace Lounge will feature an original ‘Pink Petals’ dessert comprising of sakura-flavored cheese cake atop which a refreshing layer of pink gelée with sakura petals lies. Sakura-flavored ice cream, mini rice dumplings and a white chocolate kazaguruma decorate this unique ‘Pink Petals’ dessert, which also comes accompanied by cherry & cassis syrup.
