May 14, 2021

Sorano Hotel with interior designed by Curiosity is newly born in the area adjacent to Showa Kinen Park, one of the leading national parks in Japan, situated in Tachikawa city, just 30 minutes from Shinjuku, Tokyo.



Lobby

The memorable space is designed with a “tent” shape that connects the entrance to the lobby evoking a journey in nature even while you are indoor. The lobby opens directly to the outside garden, creating a surprising effect as you move from an urban environment to a lush green garden. The circular sofas welcome the visitor in a comfortable setting around the garden.



The ambiance of the lobby changes dramatically during the night with a warm atmosphere, the lighting shines through the louvers in a play of light and shadows. The “IMA LOUNGE” welcomes the visitor to enjoy a relaxing atmosphere in an intimate space around the counter.



Sorano Spa


The entrance of Sorano Spa on 10th and 11th floor is the entrance for the well-being place, symbolized with the water drop-like lighting feature of the reception.




Indoor Spa


The Hot Bathing Facility/Indoor Spa features Sorano Hotel’s own hot spring water pumped up from this area. In addition to 20-meter-long spa largely open to the outside garden, the visitor can also immerse himself in the whirlpool Jacuzzi spa and Nano-mist Sauna.



Infinity Pool

The most iconic feature of Sorano Hotel is the 4 meters wide and extending an impressive 60 meters long Infinity Pool. It appears as you climb the stairs from the 10th floor through the pool itself, the view suddenly opens up before your eyes.
The guests feel united with nature as they look upon the greenery and cityscape that spread into the distance and see Mt.Fuji in the scenery



Sorano Rooftop Bar


Located facing the Infinity Pool, Sorano Rooftop Bar, a long, curved bar welcomes the customers day and night. The space extends with a rest and dining area with an infinite view towards the park, reflected in the mirror wall.



Daichino Restaurant


The diner based on the concept of “well-being”, serves Japanese Crossover food menus combining Japanese food and other cultures culinary.
The three cellars invite the customer to discover high-quality ingredients selected from local production in Tachikawa and neighboring regions. Freshness and quality of those ingredients are visualized in a vegetable and fish cellars in the center, in addition to wine cellars, which attract your sights and raise curiosity for dining.



The terrace of the restaurant opens to the garden with a large seating area surrounded by the greenery of the park.
