Peninsula Hotels Prices: What Each Costs, Month by Month

The Peninsula sells the same service culture at all twelve hotels and prices them nothing alike. On the same November dates, the lowest rate ran from $320 a night in Bangkok to $2,331 in New York; over New Year, from $261 in Manila to $2,655 in Tokyo. So we priced every hotel ourselves.

On 1 October 2026 we priced the same stays at all twelve Peninsulas through our own booking engine (the one behind hotels.biirdee.com): 10–13 Nov 2026, 27–30 Dec 2026, 12–15 Mar 2027 and 15–18 Jul 2027, plus a two-night midweek stay (Tuesday to Thursday of the third week) in every month to September 2027. We also scored the 100 most recent verified guest reviews at each hotel ourselves. Rates are the lowest per night the engine charged at booking; taxes the hotel collects at checkout are extra, and we show them separately below. Live rates change daily: these were the rates on 1 October 2026.

Reading the Price Tables

Asia is where the Peninsula is cheap. Manila was the lowest-priced hotel on every stay where it had rooms ($236–292 a night), Bangkok ran $296–574, Beijing's all-suite rooms $385–618, and Shanghai and Hong Kong sat between $471 and $986. Tokyo is the exception at $747–2,655, and over New Year it was the most expensive Peninsula of all.

The West is where the money goes. Paris was the priciest Peninsula on our March and July stays and in every month of our calendar but December, London ran $1,251–1,772, and New York swung from $1,145 in March to $2,331 in November, the highest November rate in the brand. Beverly Hills held at $1,088–1,253 except on our March stay ($2,030), and Istanbul was the most stable hotel we priced, at $828–932 on all four stays. Chicago ($463–1,002) is the American value play.

Cheapest Months, Hotel by Hotel

February is the cheapest month at six Peninsulas: Tokyo ($791), Shanghai ($471, tied with January and July), Beijing ($380, tied with January and March), London ($1,042), Istanbul ($570) and New York ($1,226). Hong Kong is cheapest in January and March ($627), Beverly Hills in November and January ($1,077), Bangkok ($397) and Paris ($1,615) in November, Chicago in March ($485), and Manila at $261 in five months of the year.

The priciest months are less predictable: November in Tokyo ($1,579) and Hong Kong ($830), December in New York ($2,275) and Manila ($399), April in Shanghai ($601), May in London ($1,730), Istanbul ($932) and Bangkok ($443, tied with March), June in Paris ($2,654), July in Chicago ($995), and August in Beijing ($628) and Beverly Hills ($1,290). If your dates are flexible, the difference is real: in Tokyo and Chicago the priciest month cost about double the cheapest.

Hong Kong is the simplest: a flat $67 on every stay. Beijing, Manila and Shanghai add $34–54. London ($112–132) and Beverly Hills ($191–228 on three of four stays) are where breakfast costs real money. In Paris (March and July) and Tokyo (July) the only breakfast rates on the same rooms were priced far above anything breakfast could explain, so we mark them not comparable: price the room-only rate and add breakfast at the hotel. New York, Chicago and Istanbul sold almost no breakfast-inclusive rates through our engine.

Flexibility is cheap at the Peninsula more often than not. At Beverly Hills a refundable rate cost nothing extra on any stay, and in Paris it cost 0–2% except in July (19%). Istanbul charged a steady 18%, and Chicago (21–25%) and Hong Kong (21% in November) were the dearest places to keep your options open. In every n/a case above, the cheapest rate we found was refundable anyway.

Suites start lower than you might expect: the median cheapest suite cost 1.43 to 1.60 times the cheapest room across our four stays. Hong Kong's Superior Suite ran $795–1,466 and Shanghai's Executive Suite $845–992. The ceilings are in Europe: Paris topped out at $10,542 a night for its Rooftop Suite in July, Istanbul at $9,641 and London at $9,304.

In the US, compare all-in. The three American Peninsulas collected US taxes at checkout on top of the engine rate on most of our stays: Chicago about $83–179 a night on every stay, New York about $163–235 and Beverly Hills about $167–192 on three of four. On a $1,665 night at The Peninsula New York over New Year, that was about $235 more; on a $1,253 night at Beverly Hills in November, about $192. London and Paris also left large sums to pay at the hotel on some stays (London about $236–316 on three, Paris about $239–257 on two), while the hotels in China, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Manila added about $55 a night or less.

How to Pay Less at the Peninsula

Time it. February is the cheapest month at half the portfolio, and the gaps are real: Tokyo in February ($791) cost about half its November rate, Chicago in March ($485) under half its July rate, and New York in February ($1,226) far less than in December ($2,275). In Bangkok, Beverly Hills and Shanghai the rate barely moves, so book those for the weather.

Stay flexible where flexibility is free. At Beverly Hills a refundable rate cost nothing extra on any of our stays, and in Paris it cost 0–2% outside July; where the premium is high (Chicago 21–25%, Istanbul 18%), a non-refundable rate makes sense only once your dates are fixed.

Get breakfast and perks attached rather than buying them. Booking through a PenClub-affiliated advisor costs the same as booking direct and adds daily breakfast for two, upgrade priority, a property credit and early check-in where available; at the hotels where breakfast for two adds $112–228 a night on most stays (London, Beverly Hills), that alone outweighs most discounts. See how PenClub works. And compare all-in: an engine rate that leaves hundreds of dollars a night of tax to pay at checkout is not the bargain it looks.
