- Tokyu Kabukicho Tower was built on the site of the former Shinjuku Tokyu Milano, and its concept is “enjoying what you like best to the full”. Embodying this concept, the iconic tower comprises a collection of entertainment facilities, including a hall for live music, a theater, and a cinema. Now there is also a hotel so you can maintain your sense of excitement and exhilaration after you have enjoyed all the entertainment – HOTEL GROOVE SHINJUKU, A PARKROYAL Hotel, a lifestyle hotel. As you step into your guest room, still buzzing from your entertainment event, you will find yourself surrounded by a mid-century design, reminiscent of the era when Shinjuku Tokyu Milano opened in 1956. Its atmosphere will make you want to stay up late talking with friends or family.Shinjuku is a downtown area that has generated and nurtured numerous artworks. In keeping with this, the hotel has artthemed rooms collectively called GROOVE ROOM where guests can enter the world of three artists: Tomoyuki Washio, Takuro Tamayama, and Yoshiaki Kaihatsu. Each artist has created three special guest rooms that provide an immersive experience in their art. Staying in one of these rooms is sure to spark your creativity.
A new gathering place to connect the hotel with Shinjuku
