SPECIAL PROMOTION TOKYO HIDEAWAY An intimate hotel in one of Toyko's hottest neighbourhoods lures with a high-concept design and stunning views TRUNK(HOTEL) YOYOGI PARK will launch on September 1st, 2023 in Tomigaya, Shibuya, offering 25 guest rooms, a restaurant and a rooftop pool with a lounge – and presenting a new landmark in the neighbourhood of Shibuya. Located in the heart of Tokyo, close to the lush greenery of Yoyogi Park, the hotel is designed as an urban oasis, inviting guests to find both solace and stimulus in the heart of the city, forging a path to enduring vitality. The hotel is designed to work in harmony with the verdant landscape seen just outside its windows. Leading Japanese architect and designer Keiji Ashizawa was commissioned by TRUNK to oversee the architecture and interior design, while Danish firm Norm Architects collaborated on the interior design. Working alongside TRUNK’s in-house design studio, their efforts have produced an interior in which a distinctively Japanese use of materials, techniques and arrangement of space comes together with a modern design approach and a Scandinavian sensibility. TRUNK offers one-of-a-kind luxury experiences by creating properties unique to specific locations across Tokyo for locals and international visitors alike. The first TRUNK(HOTEL) opened in Shibuya in 2017, with TRUNK(HOUSE) following in 2019 and TRUNK(HOTEL) YOYOGI PARK in 2023. There will be four types of standard rooms, Park View Suites looking over Yoyogi Park, and an Owner’s Suite, located on the penthouse floor. All rooms have balconies. Guests can book according to their needs, whether they are travelling independently or with a partner, friends, or family; for business, a staycation, or to celebrate an important occasion.
