We Paid /night
Including room rate, taxes and mandatory resort fees
What does ""We Paid"" mean?
Forbes Travel Guide performs independent, incognito inspections of all hotels we
rate. This is what we paid when we stayed at this hotel.






Rates can vary widely by room type and season. "We Paid" is intended to give a
general sense of price, but you might find considerably different rates for your
trip.




When we book, we aim for the optimum season for the destination, but we avoid
holidays and major public events, when prices are highest. We generally book a
room at one category up from the most basic.




We take advantage of promotional rates, when possible. That means the rate you
see above might have included other benefits, such as spa or meal credits.

THE PRINCE AKATOKI LONDON

East meets West in central London
VERIFIED LUXURY
Learn How We Inspect
We are the only independent, global rating system for luxury hotels,
restaurants, spas and ocean cruise ships.

Here are five things to know about us:

1. We verify luxury. Our highly trained inspectors visit every property we rate,
evaluating based on up to 900 objective criteria. Our hotel stays span a minimum
of two nights.
2. We pay our own way. No one can buy a rating; all ratings are earned through
our objective inspection process.
3. Our global team of inspectors are anonymous at all times, so they have the
same experience as a typical guest.
4. While we inspect both service and facility, our Star Rating system emphasizes
service because your experience at a hotel, restaurant or spa goes beyond looks
— how it makes you feel is what you will remember most.
5. We started in1958 as Mobil Travel Guide, and we created the original
Five-Star rating system for hospitality.

For press inquiries, please click here.

Five-Star
These properties deliver an outstanding experience and consistently offer a
highly customized level of service.

Four-Star
These are exceptional properties, offering high levels of service and quality of
facility to match.

Recommended
These are excellent properties with consistently good service and facilities.

Tucked away on a hushed, tree-lined street in Marylebone, The Prince Akatoki is
a chic and understated hideaway where you can decompress while staying
conveniently central. The hotel imbues a sense of mindfulness that is synonymous
with Japanese culture.



Featherlight interiors incorporating nature-inspired elements feel luxurious yet
grounding. The service and hospitality embody a similar approach: discreet and
unassuming with every experience and touchpoint cleverly considered.



An inconspicuous entrance leads to an unfussy, tranquil atmosphere, somewhat
like walking into a spa (juice or a smoothie is offered on arrival, too). For a
relatively new brand that’s still establishing itself in London, The Prince
Akatoki seems quietly confident in its ethos and offering.



Gift giving is an art form in Japan and the London hotel adopts this treasured
practice with unique treats that punctuate the beginning and end of your stay.
Whether it’s a box of chikutan charcoal sticks to naturally filter water or a
freshly pressed juice to go when you check out, these personalized touches make
your experience that little bit more memorable.

Our Inspector's Highlights

 * A pleasant, distinctive scent greets you upon walking into The Prince
   Akatoki. This is a customized fragrance made up of frankincense, bergamot,
   juniper and turmeric.
 * If you’re into whisky, definitely pay The Malt Lounge a visit. The bar serves
   a selection of rare spirits (many of which are from Japan, of course) and
   holds a wall of lockers so that if you decide to indulge in a coveted bottle,
   you can safely lock it away and enjoy it throughout your stay.
 * London’s top sights and attractions are all within easy reach of the
   Marylebone hotel. The buzzing West End, Hyde Park and Regent’s Park are all
   close by.
 * In addition to the usual fluffy robe, you’re also provided with a beautifully
   crafted yukata to wear during your stay. The traditional Japanese kimonos are
   placed on your bed during turndown service along with a calming spray to aid
   relaxation and tea blends to promote healthy sleep.
 * In keeping with the hotel’s affinity for mind-body wellness, you’ll find a
   yoga mat in every room. It’s helpful if you’re in need of a morning stretch.











Things to Know

 * There’s a Prince Akatoki app that you can download and use to order room
   service or liaise with the concierge from wherever you are.
 * While the London hotel does not have a spa, it works with local therapists
   who can provide in-room treatments. For those who prefer a more traditional
   spa setting, visits easily can be arranged.
 * Tucked away in one corner of the lobby is a compact co-working space, which
   is handy for business travelers who don’t feel inspired working from their
   rooms and prefer a gentle buzz in the background.
 * This is a dog-friendly hotel, so feel free to bring your pet along.







The Rooms

 * Rooms are infused with elements of traditional Japanese interior design, such
   as low beds, timber furniture, delicately painted fusuma panels and an
   efficient use of space.
 * Warm, ambient lighting and dimmer switches pay subtle homage to the meaning
   of “Akatoki,” which is “sunrise.”
 * Despite not being the top-level room, the Executive Junior Suite has the most
   spacious and luxurious feel to it. Three large windows provide ample natural
   light and overlook the street below.
 * Bathing is a ritual in Japan and at The Prince Akatoki. Malin + Goetz
   products and TVs built into the walls above the tub encourage you to take a
   long, relaxing soak.











The Restaurants

 * At seasonally inspired fusion restaurant TOKii, the sushi counter and robata
   grill are fun dinner options. (A few modern European dishes are available for
   those who want an alternative.)
 * Dishes at TOKii are relatively simple but are presented in artistic ways that
   allow the quality of the ingredients to speak for themselves. Start with
   shareable plates like scallop ceviche with orange and chili or crispy ox
   cheek croquettes with wasabi mayo.
 * Try the Akatoki Breakfast for a Japanese-inspired start to your day that
   includes warming miso soup and a tamagoyaki omelette.
 * Sip on sencha green tea by day and rare Japanese whiskies and sparkling sake
   by night in The Malt Lounge — the ground-floor bar transitions seamlessly
   from tea lounge to late-night hideaway. Chic wood and leather seating,
   Japanese scripture detailing and sliding fusuma panels make up the sumptuous
   interiors.
