A new urban accommodation facility has opened in Tokyo's Nishi-Azabu district: SYLA HOTEL NISHI-AZABU, a licensed apartment hotel developed by SYLA Holdings and operated by Unito.
Addressing the Shortage of Long-Stay Options in Central Tokyo
Tokyo's accommodation market has been experiencing significant changes. With inbound tourism rebounding and the yen remaining relatively weak, average room rates in major city areas have been on the rise. The real challenge, however, isn't the higher prices — it's the shortage of facilities that combine adequate space, a comfortable home-like atmosphere, and amenities such as kitchens and washing machines in central Tokyo locations.
Couples and families looking for multi-day or extended stays have been especially underserved. Standard hotels are designed primarily for short visits, leaving a gap for travelers who want to experience Tokyo as a place to live rather than simply a tourist destination. SYLA HOTEL NISHI-AZABU was created to address exactly that gap.
Nishi-Azabu is a neighborhood with easy access to Roppongi, Azabujuban, and Minami-Aoyama — an area popular among discerning international travelers, particularly affluent visitors from Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, who are drawn to the idea of a "home in the city."

What Sets an Apartment Hotel Apart
SYLA HOTEL NISHI-AZABU offers an experience that blends the reliability of a hotel with the comfort of a private apartment. The property stands out in three key ways:
1. Designed for Extended Stays
The unit is fully equipped for stays ranging from a few days to several weeks or even a month at a time. Facilities for laundry, cooking, and relaxing support travelers in their day-to-day routines.
2. Comfortable for Groups
For families or couples traveling together, sharing one generous space can be far more comfortable than booking two separate hotel rooms. The spacious layout accommodates up to 8 guests in a single property.
3. High-Quality Living Space
The interior and facilities reflect the refined atmosphere of Nishi-Azabu. With 96.45㎡ of floor space and a 5th-floor garden view, the property is designed to function as a second home in Tokyo rather than just a sightseeing base.
