IHG Hotels & Resorts has opened Hotel Indigo Karuizawa, the region’s first globally-branded lifestyle boutique hotel, and the second property in Japan under the Hotel Indigo brand.
Inspired by the town’s sophisticated sensibility and abundance of nature, Hotel Indigo Karuizawa captures the true spirt of a neighbourhood through its design, amenities, restaurants and bars, and service style.
The 155-room hotel sits across three buildings and features wood-fired Italian restaurant Kagaribi, an all-day dining restaurant that serves dishes that incorporate local ingredients and take inspiration from the flavours, textures and nuances of the region. The Spa by Harnn is a wellness destination offering three treatment rooms and fitness facilities. The hotel also offers meeting facilities for events and gatherings to meet the needs of business travellers.
Surrounded by the region’s natural beauty and just 2.6km from Karuiazawa station, the hotel is a perfect escape for travellers who are looking to experience everything Karuizawa has to offer.
“We are very proud to announce the opening of Hotel Indigo Karuizawa, the second Hotel Indigo in Japan and our second hotel in partnership with Tokyo Century Corporation,” says Abhijay Sandilya, CEO, IHG ANA Hotels Group Japan. “I’d like to thank Tokyo Century Corporation for their great partnership, which we look forward to continuing for many years.”
“IHG is currently experiencing its biggest ever period of growth in Japan, and we see big things ahead for the Hotel Indigo brand. Japan is famous for its rich history, culture, architecture and food, so we think there is great opportunity across Japan for a brand that embraces these elements. It will offer Japanese travelers a premium, boutique experience when exploring their own communities, as well as giving international travelers a truly local experience with the comfort and amenity of a global brand.”
