Why we recommend it

TRUNK(HOTEL) sits on Cat Street, the pedestrian lane of independent shops linking Shibuya and Harajuku, and it was conceived around the idea of "socialising": a hotel where locals and guests mix rather than a sealed-off retreat. Its lobby lounge and bar are designed as a third place for the neighbourhood, so the ground floor buzzes from morning to late evening.

Dining is a strength. TRUNK(KITCHEN) serves breakfast, lunch and dinner with an emphasis on seafood at night, while TRUNK(KUSHI) focuses on grilled skewers. Rooms are pricier than standard mid-range options, reflecting the design and location. Shibuya and Meiji-jingumae stations are both walkable, and Omotesando, Harajuku and Yoyogi Park are on the doorstep, which makes it ideal for shopping, cafés and nightlife.
