The Art Boutique Hotel for Your Tokyo Adventure

Travellers looking for a luxury hotel often fall into the habit of going for the big names in the industry. Indeed, they are a safe bet, but as we often hear it said, stepping outside of what you already know can bring you the greatest surprises.
If on your next visit to Tokyo you are willing to take on the challenge and be a bit more adventurous, you should look into The Royal Park Canvas Ginza8 Hotel. This boutique hotel recently opened its doors in Ginza, a neighbourhood often described as a place where old meets new. With this dichotomy in mind, the hotel has been carefully designed, and artworks from both Japanese and international contemporary artists hang on its walls together with vintage inspired furniture.
Setting it apart from the larger hotel-chains are also its common areas, conceived as spaces that invite to socialise with other fellow travellers. An open-kitchen, a music library with shelves full of vinyls hand-picked by the staff and a modern Japanese tea room offering original tea-based cocktails are some examples. The fun does not stop here though, with rooms that will meet the expectations of the most demanding design enthusiasts. The hotel is with no doubt an ideal starting base for the adventure of discovering Tokyo.
