Hyatt to open new hotel in Tokyo

by Aoife Dowling | 17 Dec 2012

US-based Hyatt Hotels is set to launch an Andaz-branded hotel in Tokyo, Japan in 2014.

Andaz Tokyo is a joint partnership between Hyatt Hotels Corporation and Japanese property management firm Mori Building Company.

Located in Toranomon, the hotel will occupy eight floors of a 52-story tower in a multi-use complex and feature 164 guestrooms including 64 suites

Andaz Tokyo will also house a spa with a 65 sq ft indoor infinity pool and a fitness centre.

New York-based Tony Chi & Associates are responsible for the interior design, which will showcase traditional Japanese style.

Other facilities include a pastry shop, café, open-air bar, and a chapel as well as the Andaz Studio, a flexible event and meeting space with terrace seating

Larry Tchou, executive vice president, Hyatt Hotels Corporation said: "Currently, nine Andaz hotels are in operation in four countries, with others continually being added to our development pipeline."

"True to its destination, Andaz Tokyo will convey the well-tailored, refined sensibility of Japan, as well as the vibrant, internationally eclectic spirit of its capital city."

Andaz Tokyo will be the fourth Hyatt-branded hotel to open in Tokyo and the ninth in Japan. Hyatt and Mori Building affiliates have collaborated on two other properties in Asia: Park Hyatt Shanghai, which opened in September 2008, and Grand Hyatt Tokyo, opened 2003.
