Tokyo has witnessed robust market growth over the years and will continue to set itself as a key tourism, cultural and economic hub. The premium product and offering of Fraser Suites Tokyo will further complement the vibrant business and leisure destinations within the locality. ”

Along with the government’s plan to achieve its target of 40 million visitors by 2020 , we will expect to see a rise in room rates against the backdrop of increasing demand.” said Choe.
