Rooted in Local Character
The achievement highlights The Peninsula Hotels’ long-term philosophy, which balances historical legacy with deeply personalised guest experiences.
Commenting on the landmark achievement, Gareth Roberts, The Peninsula’s Chief Operating Officer, said:
“With five properties included across our global portfolio, we are honoured to see such strong representation of our hotels recognized in Condé Nast Traveler’s inaugural Triple Crown collection. Each of these properties reflects a distinct character rooted in its city while remaining unmistakably Peninsula. This speaks to the dedication of our teams and their continued commitment to delivering thoughtful, personalized, and truly exceptional hospitality and guest experiences that go beyond the stay.”
By seamlessly blending its signature luxury service with the authentic spirit, culture, and attention to detail unique to Tokyo, the Japanese property has firmly cemented its status as an enduring icon of global travel.
Understanding the Triple Crown Distinction
Introduced in 2026, the Condé Nast Traveler Triple Crown honours a highly selective tier of global hotels. To qualify, a property must have appeared on all three of the magazine’s flagship award lists over its illustrious 30-year history.
The three benchmarks that constitute this ultimate travel accolade include:
-
The Hot List: An annual curation celebrating the world’s most exceptional and groundbreaking new hotel openings.
-
The Gold List: A definitive showcase of Condé Nast Traveler editors’ personal favourite hotels across the globe.
-
The Readers’ Choice Awards: A purely audience-driven ranking voted on annually by millions of global travellers, representing one of the industry’s most trusted marks of excellence.
