PETALS TOKYO, the water-side art hotel operated by Terada Warehouse Co., Ltd. (Shinagawa, Tokyo; President: Kohei Terada), begins offering a "Calligraphy Experience Stay Plan" starting September 4, 2025, designed for guests to connect with themselves and find inner peace through traditional Japanese calligraphy.
Calligraphy Experience Stay Plan
PETALS TOKYO celebrates its fifth anniversary since opening in 2020. The unique accommodation experience that fuses art with waterfront environments has gained positive reception from both domestic and international guests, with inbound demand showing remarkable expansion. International visitor revenue increased approximately 250% compared to the previous year. In response to this growing inbound demand and interest in Japanese culture, the hotel launches the "Calligraphy Experience Stay Plan" on September 4, 2025.
This Japanese cultural experience plan offers guests the opportunity to learn calligraphy from experienced instructors at a calligraphy classroom in Minami-Shinagawa, accessible via the historic Tokaido road from PETALS TOKYO while enjoying the atmospheric charm of the traditional downtown area.
