“&Here TOKYO UENO'' was designed with families in mind for long-term stays in Ueno, a popular area in Tokyo where many foreign visitors to Japan gather. Ueno is in a prime location, with a concentration of cultural and leisure facilities such as the Tokyo National Museum and Ueno Zoo, as well as spots where foreign visitors to Japan can experience Japanese culture, such as Ameyoko, which is lined with a variety of shops.<\/p>\n
The hotel's northern area is a scenic area facing the nature of Ueno Park (FOREST SITE), and the southern area is an area lined with long-established shops selling traditional crafts from the Edo period (CULTURE SITE). We offer the pleasure of choosing your favorite guest room from the different guest rooms designed with the concept of each area in mind.<\/p>\n
Following this opening in Ueno, we are planning to construct eight hotels in three prefectures in the future.<\/p>\n
\u25a0Background of entering the hotel business<\/strong><\/p>\n Since the end of the COVID-19 border measures in April 2023, the number of foreign visitors to Japan has exceeded 25 million annually, and inbound demand is steadily recovering. According to a survey*, about 50% of visitors to Japan stay in groups of 3 or more people, and about 80% stay for 4 days or more, indicating that there is a high need for hotels and guest rooms that allow groups to stay in one room for a long period of time without having to separate rooms. I understand.<\/p>\n Additionally, in Japan, there is an increasing trend in the number of multi-person trips, such as three-generation trips, mainly among retired seniors. Furthermore, in recent years, “residential hotels'' have been attracting attention as they rationally incorporate the advantages of both hotels and serviced apartments, providing added value such as kitchens and laundry facilities, and allowing guests to stay as if they were living there. However, on the other hand, hotels in major cities in Japan currently lack guest rooms that can accommodate three or more people at the same time.<\/p>\n Based on the above, we have decided to develop and operate the residential hotel brand “&Here'', which meets the needs of long-term and large-group accommodation, including foreign visitors to Japan, domestic families, and group travelers. SPECIAL DAYS HOTEL is a new category that is neither a business hotel nor a city hotel, but pursues comfort and well-being not only during hotel stays but throughout the journey. We aim to be a hotel that provides the following.<\/p>\n *An original survey by Nippon Hotel Appraisal Co., Ltd. based on the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism Tourism Agency's "Survey on Consumption Trends of Foreigners Visiting Japan," "Statistical Survey on Overnight Travel," and interviews with health centers, etc.<\/p>\n \u25a0About the new brand \u201c&Here\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n <brand logo><\/p><\/div>\n &Here, a new residential hotel brand, focuses on the important elements of travel : ENJOY and<\/strong> RELAX<\/strong> , and the precious time guests spend with the people they care about, such as family and friends. It was created with the hope of becoming a place that “attracts and connects''<\/strong> many important things.<\/p>\n Our ideal is to offer a variety of "enjoyment" and "relaxation" times not only within the hotel, but also to customers who are traveling, and to have them take home "special memories." Masu. The "&" in the logo represents the hotel's ability to connect travelers with the local area, travelers with various experiences, and travelers with staff. The design, inspired by the traditional craft of mizuhiki, resembles a “road'' and also embodies the idea of “a hotel that leads to wonderful places.''<\/p>\n [What is the journey proposed by &Here?]<\/strong><\/p>\n Traveling is made of "enjoyment" and "relaxation." Based on this idea, we develop hotels that design not only the way you spend time inside the hotel, but also the entire journey. We firmly support each person's various ways of enjoying the game.<\/p>\n \u2460 Located in an area full of Ueno's rich greenery and manufacturing culture<\/strong><\/p>\n “&Here TOKYO UENO'' is located in one of the greenest areas in Tokyo (FOREST SITE) such as Shinobazu Pond and Ueno Park on the north side, and in an area full of traditional crafts and manufacturing culture (CULTURE SITE) on the south side. Our hotel's concept is "Ueno Park Shrine," and we will create a peaceful forest adjacent to the cultural shrine "Ueno Park," providing a place where you can experience local culture.<\/p>\n – Conveniently located at the southern end of Shinobazu Pond, with views of Shinobazu Pond and Ueno Park from the guest rooms.<\/p>\n – Can be used on multiple lines such as JR Line, Ginza Subway Line, Chiyoda Line, etc.<\/p>\n – Easy walking route for tourists with a flat approach from the station<\/p>\n \u30fbGood access to Narita Airport and Haneda Airport from Ueno Station<\/p>\n \u2461 Design the exterior and guest rooms based on the image of the "FOREST" area on the north side and the "CULTURE" area on the south side<\/strong><\/p>\n \u25b2\u201c&Here TOKYO UENO\u201d exterior<\/p><\/div>\n The north side is designed with Ueno Park's trees in mind, and the south side is designed with traditional crafts and manufacturing culture in mind, with a decorative design of aged bricks and an exterior design that takes advantage of the characteristics of “FOREST'' and “CULTURE.'' We aimed to be a hotel full of local character.<\/p>\n There are 14 types of guest rooms to choose from: “FOREST SITE,'' which expresses a sense of nature while taking advantage of the view of Shinobazu Pond, and “CULTURE SITE,'' which has a design with a craft feel, workshop room, and literary masters in mind. We provide.<\/p>\n 70% of the guest rooms are family-type, with various facilities for long-term stays such as a mini kitchen, refrigerator, microwave, dining table, and in addition to beds, sofa spaces and Japanese-style rooms for relaxation.

"WAW" is also available to visitors other than hotel guests.<\/p>\n The artwork on display in the lobby is the braided cord of “Domei'', which is located in the Nakamachi Shopping Center where the hotel is located, and the work of “Toumei'', an acrylic resin processing company in Ueno. By co-creating with local workshops, we have created a system to deepen understanding of the city.<\/p>\n The courtyard in the center of the lobby is designed to create a sustainable space by using "Loss Plants," which reuses plants used for events and other events. In addition, in order to improve the attractiveness of hotels through industry-academia collaboration projects, we collaborated with students majoring in interior design from the Tokyo Communication Art College to develop "hotel artwork" that attracts target customers and "tools to communicate regional attractions" that enrich customers' trips. (Tabloid Uchiwa)" was produced and installed at the hotel.<\/p>\n [1st floor lobby floor]<\/strong><\/p>\n \u25b2 Artwork co-created with a local workshop is displayed in the lounge.<\/p><\/div>\n \u25b2Cafe space \u201c&Here Cafe\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n \u25b2Share office \u201cWAW\u201d<\/p><\/div>\n \u25b2Artwork created through industry-academia collaboration project<\/p><\/div>\n \u25b2Courtyard with Ross Plants<\/p><\/div>\n \u2463Large bath where you can enjoy the magnificent scenery of Ueno Park<\/strong><\/p>\n We have prepared a large public bath where you can feel the comfort of relaxing your mind and body while enjoying the magnificent scenery of Ueno Park.
