Pullman to open first hotel in the heart of Tokyo in Japan

Pullman Tokyo Tamachi is being developed as part of the MSB Tamachi mixed-used complex and will open in the fall of 2018.

Featuring 143 rooms, the contemporary designed hotel connects the international style of Pullman with a delicate touch of Japanese art and culture.

This business and leisure hotel includes meeting facilities and unique dining concepts. The hotel is directly connected to the JR Tamachi Station east exit and a three-minute walk from the Toei Subway Mita Line.

From the hotel to the Haneda International Airport, it is about 30 minutes by public transport and just one stop from JR Shinagawa station to Osaka and Kyoto via bullet train.

Chief operating officer for upper Southeast and Northeast Asia of AccorHotels, Patrick Basset said: “Japan keeps attracting more and more international travelers, with historically high growth rate recorded in the beginning of 2017.

“The increasing inbound market, especially from Korea and other Asian countries (China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam) is on a continuous positive trend which will be amplified as the country will benefit from the worldwide attention with the upcoming 2020 Summer Olympic Games,” he said.

Pullman Hotels & Resorts, AccorHotels’ new generation of upscale hotels, is a cosmopolitan brand that offers hyper-connected travelers a seamless experience that combines contemporary  design and energizing culinary concepts.

Vice president for Japan market at AccorHotels, Eric D’Ignazio said: “The opening of Pullman Tokyo Tamachi marks an exciting step in developing more upscale and luxury hotels in Japan to meet the growing demand of cosmopolitan travelers who appreciate innovative design and wellness in the travel scene.

“The global nomad is Pullman’s representation of the new generation of travelers and business leaders who fully and naturally blend work and leisure, he added.

In Japan AccorHotels has 12 hotels in its network across Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto, Sapporo and Okinawa. The brands include under Swissotel, Pullman, Novotel, Mercure, ibis and ibis Styles. The Group first entered the Japanese market in 1995.
