Hyatt
Hotels Corporation (NYSE: H) announced today the opening of Hotel
Toranomon Hills as the first property in Tokyo under The Unbound
Collection by Hyatt brand. Situated in the heart of Tokyo, the hotel is located
within the new Toranomon Hills Station Tower in Toranomon Hills, the
ever-evolving integrated development and global business hub by Mori Building
Co., Ltd. Hotel Toranomon Hills is poised to become an urban launchpad for
cosmopolitan professionals and travelers with its comfortable and purposefully
designed spaces for seamless transitions between rest, work and socializing.
“We are honored to join hands once again with Mori
Building Co., Ltd. and Mori Hospitality Corporation to launch a new brand –
this time The Unbound Collection by Hyatt – in Tokyo. We are grateful for their
trust and collaboration to be included in the transformative Toranomon Hills
project from the beginning, starting with our Andaz brand nearly 10 years ago,
and coming full circle with the highly anticipated opening of Hotel Toranomon
Hills,” said David Udell, group president, Asia Pacific, Hyatt. “The Unbound
Collection by Hyatt portfolio is a compilation of one-of-a-kind hotels that
inspire stories worth collecting. We are excited to have these hotels at the
center of all that Toranomon Hills has to offer as they set the stage for our
guests to discover energizing experiences, including immersive culinary moments
at Le Pristine Tokyo.”
“Over
the years, Mori Building has collaborated with Hyatt on Grand Hyatt Tokyo,
Andaz Tokyo Toranomon Hills, and Park Hyatt Shanghai. Through these joint
projects aimed at delivering top-quality hospitality, Mori Building and Hyatt
have formed a relationship of deep trust. We are now delighted to announce the
opening of Hotel Toranomon Hills, featuring unique character and one-of-a-kind
charm as the second hotel in Toranomon Hills. With this opening, the Toranomon
Hills complex will continue to expand and evolve as an international hub and
global business center, further contributing to Tokyo's international
competitiveness,” said Shingo Tsuji, President and Representative Director of
Mori Building Co., Ltd.
At
the crossroads of Japan’s full-fledged international hub and global business
center and
conveniently
located in central Tokyo with easy access to shopping and entertainment hubs
such as Ginza and Roppongi, the hotel caters to the growing trend of “bleisure
travel” where business travel is combined with leisure. The hotel is within
walking distance of the iconic Imperial Palace, around 30 minutes by car from
Haneda International Airport, and connected directly to Toranomon Hills subway
station on the Hibiya Line via Toranomon Hills Station Tower. Toranomon Hills
Station Tower is home to TOKYO NODE, which includes a presentation/performance
hall, art galleries and other facilities on the top floors, and a commercial
facility with approximately 70 stores and restaurants on the lower floors.
Comfort-first,
minimalist spaces with purposeful design
Hotel
Toranomon Hills marks the Japan debut of Space Copenhagen, a leading Danish
design studio. The timeless, minimalist interiors draw inspiration from Danish
and Japanese aesthetics to create relaxing spaces where guests can readily
unwind, work and socialize.
Hotel
Toranomon Hills offers 205 stylish rooms and suites from which guests can enjoy
views of the city or the famed Tokyo Tower. All guestrooms feature
NEMOHAMO-brand organic bath amenities and a built-in purified-water hydration
station. The hotel’s 30 suites also come with a Japanese-style hot tub for a
relaxing soak after a day of meetings or exploration. The two spacious
“Toranomon Suite” duplexes, each measuring 1,722 sq. ft. (160 sq. m.), can be
used for intimate meetings and private events as well as overnight stays – with
a flexible area for meeting, dining and entertaining; a living room; a kitchen
on the lower level; and a convertible bedroom and bathroom on the upper level.
Guests
staying at the hotel – including those who arrive too early to check in or have
late flights to catch – can enjoy exclusive access to The Lounge, a
multi-functional space with a lofty six-meter ceiling and dramatic views of
Tokyo’s cityscape centered on Tokyo Tower and Toranomon Hills. The Lounge
offers flexible spaces for in-person meetings, online business and co-working,
as well as practical facilities such as showers, private relaxation areas and
complementary refreshments.
Le
Pristine Tokyo: Groundbreaking collaboration with Michelin-starred chef
The
immersive casual fine dining restaurant and café, helmed by Sergio Herman, will
mark the Asian debut of the acclaimed Dutch chef-entrepreneur as part of a
groundbreaking collaboration between Hyatt and the Sergio Herman Group.
Located
on the street level of Toranomon Hills Station Tower and leading to the hotel’s
reception area, Le Pristine Tokyo will
serve contemporary European cuisine with a cosmopolitan flair, using
thoughtfully sourced produce from Zeeland in the Netherlands and seasonal
Japanese ingredients. Signature dishes such as Salad ‘Le Pristine’ pumpkin,
grapefruit, taleggio, endive, hazelnut and Orecchiette Zeelandaise will
be prepared with care and panache in the restaurant's open kitchen. The café
features a rectangular bar where guests can enjoy tasty temptations such as
fresh Japanese seafoods, seasonal pastas and the signature tiramisu, as well as
delightful cocktails such as Le Pristine Spritz.
Diners
can expect a sophisticated and creative fusion of food, fashion, design, art
and music, as well as a laidback vibe on the café’s outdoor terrace during
warmer months. The interior, designed by Space Copenhagen, will feature
striking art and objets d’art by Dutch and Belgian artists such as Maarten
Baas, Rinus van de Velde and Rotganzen.
Sergio
Herman will oversee all food and beverage offerings at the hotel including
breakfast.
