The Peninsula Tokyo, Tokyo

Tokyo’s glamorous Ginza district is known for its designer boutiques and Michelin-starred restaurants, making it a natural home for the elegant Peninsula Tokyo. This gorgeous hotel offers panoramic views of the city from its luxurious rooms, including an unparalleled vantage point of the Imperial Palace Gardens and Hibiya Park. With an award-winning spa and elegant modern Japanese interiors, it’s an ideal base for anyone taking in Tokyo’s sights.

The offer: Book a Deluxe Room or the Marunouchi Suite by 31 August for a guaranteed upgrade. You’ll also receive a welcome sweet and complimentary breakfast for stays between 8 May-31 August – making it a perfect romantic getaway. 

Palais de Chine Hotel, Taipei

The Palais de Chine calls itself a “museum hotel”: it embraces Taiwanese culture while bringing a distinctly European point of view to its interiors, with every corner filled with classical sculpture, Roman tapestry, antique furniture and more. With cosy yet refined reading rooms, an outdoor pool and dining destinations including Cantonese restaurant Le Palais – Taiwan’s only three-Michelin-starred restaurant – you’ll find as much to do at the hotel as you will in surrounding Taipei.

The offer: Bring historical flair to your stay in Taipei with a free additional night at Palais de Chine when you book two nights in a Superior Room, until 31 August. 

Siam Kempinski Hotel, Bangkok

Escape the bustle of Bangkok at the Siam Kempinski, which offers resort-style tranquillity in the centre of the city. The hotel marries Thai design elements with modern European grandeur, exemplified by the Michelin-starred restaurant Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin and the opulent garden swimming pool. Stroll across the hotel’s dedicated walkway to the Siam Paragon shopping mall for some retail therapy, or indulge in a treatment inspired by the changing seasons at the hotel spa.

The offer: All guests staying for at least two nights in a Premier Room at the Siam Kempinski before 30 June gain complimentary access to the Executive Lounge. 

Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong

The Mandarin Oriental is a doyenne of hospitality in Hong Kong and one of the city’s most respected luxury hotels. Its interiors blend picture-perfect skyline views, old-world glamour and thoughtful Chinese-inspired details. Expect fastidious service, and don’t miss out on their famed afternoon tea – the rose petal jam is rightly celebrated.

The offer: Book a City View Room before 31 August for a guaranteed upgrade to a Harbour View Room.
