THE HOTEL THAT<br />

NEVER SLEEPS<br />

LAUNCHED IN MARCH <strong>2016</strong>,<br />

HOTEL THE M INNSOMNIA<br />

AKASAKA CREATES A<br />

SMART YET COMFORTABLE<br />

BASE FOR TRAVELERS AND<br />

BUSINESSPEOPLE WHO<br />

WORK AND PLAY 24/7<br />

These days, people want more from<br />

their vacations or business trips than<br />

just a fleeting glimpse at a city’s top<br />

tourist attractions. They want to get<br />

to know the heart of the place they’re staying in,<br />

and learn more about its history and culture.<br />

When creating their latest property, HOTEL the<br />

M INNSOMNIA akasaka sought to offer exactly<br />

this, so they positioned the hotel in Akasaka, one<br />

of <strong>Tokyo</strong>’s most culturally rich neighborhoods,<br />

and incorporated facilities that allow guests<br />

to work and socialize around the clock. Here’s<br />

what you can look forward to when booking<br />

a stay at HOTEL the M INNSOMNIA akasaka:<br />

GUEST ROOMS THAT ARE MORE LIKE<br />

APARTMENTS<br />

The hotel offers seven different types of rooms,<br />

named either according to how large it is in<br />

square meters, or for its appeal in terms of Japanese-style<br />

decor. The smallest is “Thirty Five”<br />

(35m²), but even this one includes a lounge area<br />

and workspace. The biggest room is “Wa – Japanese<br />

Style” (60m²), and combines Western-style<br />

twin beds with an 8-mat tatami room that can<br />

be used for relaxing or for additional guests who<br />

can make use of futon bedding.<br />

Room rates start from ¥21,000 per person per night.<br />

A WORKAHOLIC’S DREAM SPACE<br />

Why’s that? Because HOTEL the M INNSOMNIA<br />

akasaka has a room called “Workaholic” that<br />

comes equipped with a boardroom table where<br />

you can host meetings and conference calls, a<br />

top quality audio system, and a high-definition<br />

TV screen with multiple channels that’s ideal for<br />

catching a sports match with colleagues after<br />

a day spent brainstorming.<br />

Rental fee: ¥19,000 (including tax and service fee)<br />

per two hours. Half price for guests staying at<br />

the hotel.<br />

YOUR OWN PRIVATE DINNER PARTY<br />

If you often travel to <strong>Tokyo</strong> but don’t have your<br />

own apartment in the city, then HOTEL the M<br />

INNSOMNIA akasaka makes an ideal place to entertain.<br />

You can rent out the “Kitchen Drinker”<br />

room, which includes modern cooking facilities<br />

with storage design by Germany company<br />

Bulthaup, and a dining table with seating for<br />

eight. It’s also available to rent for non-hotel<br />

guests who might want to hold cooking classes.<br />

Rental fee: ¥29,000 (including tax and service fee)<br />

per four hours. Half price for guests staying at<br />

the hotel.<br />

A DAILY WORKOUT<br />

If you’re burning the candle at both ends, it’s<br />

important to make sure you’re looking after<br />

your health and fitness. Head to HOTEL the M<br />

INNSOMNIA akasaka’s quirkily named gym,<br />

“Muscle Pain,” which is open 24 hours a day and<br />

features stylish equipment from the Italian manufacturer<br />

Technogym’s Wellness Collection.<br />

Free for hotel guests.<br />

FREE<br />

SPECIALITY COFFEE<br />

Catering to the city that<br />

never sleeps, the hotel’s<br />

café never closes. It serves<br />

freshly brewed speciality<br />

coffee by Kyoto brand<br />

Unir, and HOTEL the M<br />

INNSOMNIA akasaka<br />

guests are entitled to drink<br />

as many cups as they<br />

would like – for free. Pair<br />

it with a buttery Le Petit<br />

Mec Croissant for a perfect<br />

morning, afternoon, or<br />

late-night snack.<br />
