Enjoy the “Japanese summer tradition” ♪ “Takanawa Summer Festival 2020”, where you can enjoy the fair with a yukata

2020.08.24

The Prince Sakura Tower Tokyo, Grand Prince Hotel Takanawa, and Grand Prince Hotel New Takanawa have families and a wide range of generations who are not able to enjoy summer events due to limited outings and travel, and enjoy the Japanese summer tradition. The “Takanawa Summer Festival 2020” was held on Friday, August 14th and Saturday, August 15th.

At the “Takanawa Summer Festival 2020”, which will be celebrating its 7th year, you can experience the atmosphere of “Japanese summer” such as fairs in Japanese gardens, experience traditional Japanese culture, and live Japanese instruments.

In order to make the summer festival even more enjoyable, we have prepared an accommodation plan where you can change into a yukata and enjoy a festive atmosphere, and an accommodation plan where you can spend a cool time at Kaidan.

In addition, with the cooperation of Kyoto City, which is collaborating every year, we will hold a pop-up store of traditional crafts made by Kyoto craftsmen at this hotel. Craftsmen, which can usually be purchased only on the web, will be on sale for two days only by craftsmen.

At Prince Hotel, we have established a new sanitary and disinfection standard “Prince Safety Commitment” so that our customers can enjoy a safe and clean space with peace of mind. In addition to strengthening the hygiene system of employees, we will ensure the environment where customers can spend their lives with peace of mind, such as temperature measurement and disinfection of fingers.

This summer, we propose to make memories of summer vacation at a hotel where you can spend your family with peace of mind.

[Hoshinoya Tokyo] “New Year’s Kabuki Stay” brings the hospitality of an Edo Period theatrical teahouse to the present day.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.

[Shinjuku Gyoen x Naked] NAKED Autumn Foliage in Shinjuku Gyoen 2023 to be held

From November 22 (Wed) to December 3 (Sun), 2023, an autumn foliage lighting event will be held at Shinjuku Gyoen. Following the cherry blossom event this spring, Shinjuku Gyoen and Naked will collaborate again this fall for the autumn foliage event. Shinjuku Gyoen, one of Tokyo’s most famous gardens, is one of the few places in the city where visitors can enjoy the autumn leaves. The 200-meter-long rows of plane trees, the best maple tree spot in the city, Momijiyama, and the “Middle Pond,” with its spectacular reflection in the pond, will offer a world where the autumn leaves of Shinjuku Gyoen and Naked’s art and food are fused together.
