The SORANO HOTEL is a hotel whose concept is “A Well-being Hotel where the sky, land, and people areone”. As momentum heightens for seeking Well-being (a wholesome experience to invigorate the mind andbody), the hotel proposes the “Well-being Short trip”, a new way of travel in which guests can get away fromtheir busy lives in just about 30 minutes from Shinjuku(*) to relax their mind and body and casually enjoy dining,
hot springs, exercise, and other activities.
All rooms are a spacious 52 square meters or more and furnished with a balcony overlooking the Showa Kinen
Park located next to the hotel. The hotel’s signature facility is its rooftop Infinity Pool from where guests canenjoy the view of the lush greenery and expansive sky as well as the privately drilled hot spring water.
The interior is designed by Gwenael Nicolas whose work includes GINZA SIX. The interior expresses a newconcept of a resort located near central Tokyo that offers experiences in Tokyo that Tokyo had not offered up tonow. (*Approximately 25 minutes by Chuo Special Rapid from JR Shinjuku to Tachikawa Station)

The SORANO HOTEL will open on an approximately 39,000-square-meter plot of land to the north ofTachikawa Station within GREEN SPRINGS (scheduled to open in April 2020), the new city block currently underdevelopment by the parent company, Tachihi Holdings Co., Ltd. The hotel imposes no service charges and noextra bed charges for accommodations up to four guests and has selected bedding and amenities with SDGs inperspective from manufacturing to disposal. It is a new way of thinking that is only possible by a small,independent hotel free of the conventions of prevailing hotels to provide a new type of comfort for the upcomingera.

Features of the SORANO HOTEL< Design >The interior design is by Gwenael Nicolas, a designer
originally from France, who has worked globally on
worldwide luxury brand and GINZA SIX interiors. A
refined, comfortable, natural tone unifies the interior ofthe hotel. The “tent” motif from the entrance to thelobby expresses freedom and openness for the mind andbody with a design reminiscent of camping in thewilderness while being inside a resort hotel.
