About MONday Group
The "hotel MONday Group" has 23 facilities in Tokyo (located in some of Tokyo's leading business areas such as Toyosu, Nishi-Kasai, Nihonbashi and Hamamatsucho, and areas where traditional downtown culture remains such as Akihabara and Ueno Okachimachi), 5 facilities in Kyoto (areas with easy access to Kyoto Station and tourist destinations such as Kyoto Station, Karasuma-Nijo and Marutamachi), and 1 facility in Osaka (in Osaka Namba, an area known as Japan's second largest city, where history, culture, fine food and entertainment come together).
The MONday Apart series aims to be an "apartment hotel" where guests can "live" and enjoy a comfortable stay. Not only are the locations ideal for tourism and business, but the hotels also offer a wide range of facilities.
We offer a variety of services to ensure our guests have a comfortable stay, such as simple and functional guest rooms that incorporate Japanese aesthetics, a self-catering kitchen, automatic washer-dryers and other facilities for long-term guests. We operate facilities that meet the diverse needs of travelers, including multilingual support, long-term stay accommodations, and pet-friendly designs.
[JHAT Initiatives]
JHAT strives to provide flexible, high-quality services to meet the needs of each and every customer.
In particular, the "hotel MONday Apartment" series offers a comfortable space for long-term stays and families, and has been highly praised by many customers.
We also place importance on multicultural friendliness and environmental considerations, and promote sustainable operations.
In April 2025, the MONDAY Group will open a new hotel, Grand MONday Ginza, under its premium brand Grand MONday, a first for the MONDAY Group. We will continue to propose new stay styles to meet even more needs.
[Future outlook]
Encouraged by this award, JHAT will continue to strive to further improve its services and create new value.
All of our staff will continue to work hard to become the hotel brand that is the best choice for our customers.
JHAT Co., Ltd. provides accommodation services specialized for foreign visitors to Japan in order to promote the globalization of the travel and tourism industry. Although Japan's tourism market is highly regarded around the world, there are still very few hotels where families and other travelers can stay multiple nights in one room. For this reason, we are working to operate hotels in order to provide the accommodation that foreign visitors to Japan truly desire, and are working to build a diverse network of accommodation facilities in Tokyo, Osaka, and Kyoto.
Through our accommodation facilities for large groups, we will contribute to the further development of the tourism industry and regional revitalization.
JHAT Co., Ltd.
