Have you heard of Hyatt Centric Ginza Tokyo located on Ginza Namiki Dori? Hyatt Centric, Hyatt's new lifestyle brand that was launched in North America in 2015, opened in Ginza in 2018. It is currently attracting attention among discerning people as a high-class hotel located in the luxurious yet stimulating Ginza, where you can enjoy an experience that brings back memories of the place.
Entrance facing Namiki Street in Ginza.
Reminiscing about the memories of the land and being infatuated with luxury
Even though its appearance changes with the times, Ginza has always remained an advanced and exciting city. Ginza has always been at the forefront of the times, blending old and new sensibilities and cultures while incorporating them and evolving into its own unique style. ``Hyatt Centric Ginza Tokyo,'' which is appropriate for the location, offers us a dramatic and exciting experience while hinting at a new Ginza.
There are memories of this land that are essential when talking about this hotel. This hotel was born in the same place where a certain national newspaper was founded in Tokyo in 1888. It is said that Takuboku Ishikawa, Soseki Natsume, and Shimei Futabatei also worked here during the Meiji period. At that time, Ginza was a high-class place where well-informed journalists gathered, and as a result, many newspaper companies, magazine companies, advertising companies, printing companies, etc. were gathered in Ginza. The history of that time is etched in modern art throughout the hotel. Art with motifs of things related to the memory of the land has a nostalgic feel to it and soothes the soul.
Ginza's history connected through art creates new charm
The entrance faces a tree-lined street lined with many international high-end brand boutiques. As you step into the hotel, surrounded by a pleasant aroma, you are greeted by an art film depicting Ginza before the hotel opened. When you take the elevator to the third floor, you will find NAMIKI630, a dining bar and lounge with a total area of 667 square meters. The light pouring in from the large windows and the sounds of people's conversations echoing through the trees, as if they were floating comfortably on the high ceiling. Although I was overwhelmed by the high-class interior and wall-to-wall art, I felt a sense of superiority at being able to be in this sophisticated space. Everything you see is beautiful, and the space feels comfortable with a touch of playfulness, giving you the feeling of a social gathering place for adults.

There is a lounge and reception space on the 4th floor. There is no pretentious front desk here, so you can check in as you walk. Next to it is a library lounge that looks very cozy. The mix-and-match interior, lined with sofas of different designs, gives us a sense of peace, reminiscent of Ginza, which is a fusion of old and new. (Top image is library lounge)
There is art inspired by Ginza on the wall of the front space, and the art changes day and night.
The silence of another space teaches us the depth of the continuous flow of time.
It's no wonder that the interior design for this hotel was done by Strickland, a company led by Yohei Akao, who has designed many creative hotels and restaurants in Japan and abroad. Their aim was to incorporate Ginza's tradition and innovation, two contradictory values, into the space. If you stay at the hotel, you will realize that this concept is perfectly embodied, and you will think that this world view is worth seeing.
In the old days, newspapers were printed using a typesetting method called letterpress printing. An art work using the typesetting from that time.
At the entrance from the parking lot is a drawing of the city of Ginza drawn by artist Nobumasa Takahashi.
There are a total of 3 guest rooms in five types, including standard, deluxe, and three types of suites. The art placed throughout is created with four keywords associated with Ginza and this area: "media," "fashion," "landscape," and "entertainment." Japanese culture and Ginza created through art will allow you to enjoy Ginza from a new perspective.
The most noteworthy guest room is the 127㎡ Namiki Suite on the top floor. A dining area with a kitchen, a terrace facing the tree-lined street, a unique bathroom, and a living room with a large sofa set are designed to encourage you to explore and play in Ginza as if you were living here. It's about creating a space. This space is popular not only for staying but also for business purposes such as business meetings and exhibitions.
In addition to staying here, the hotel is often used for business events such as exhibitions and business meetings.
There are many hotels these days that feature art, but this one is by far the best at creating a space that adults can enjoy and feel at ease. This is a hotel that you will want to use not only for your stay, but also for business or private purposes as if it were your own favorite base.
