The Westin in Minato Mirai ♡

Many people in Yokohama may have been looking forward to this since its construction.

On May 20, 2022, The Westin Yokohama will have its grand opening in the Minato Mirai 21 area ♡

The location is in the 44th block of the Central District of Minato Mirai 21 (the former Sekichu site).

This will be the sixth hotel under the "Westin" brand in Japan.

The Westin Yokohama embodies the vision held by the Westin brand in a complete form as a lifestyle hotel.

That vision is "Well-being."

Through six aspects of well-being: Sleep Well, Eat Well, Move Well, Feel Well, Work Well, and Play Well, it provides healing to its guests.

Paying respect to the culture and history of Yokohama, the building's motif is inspired by cruise ships.

In consideration of the surrounding buildings, people, and community, the restaurant emphasizes local consumption. It actively utilizes ingredients produced in Kanagawa Prefecture.

The reception area, filled with natural light from large windows, is a heavenly space.

The guest rooms also have large, bright windows with views of the city. The interior features gentle colors and soft curves, creating a calming atmosphere. For the first time in Japan, every room will have the next-generation model of the Heavenly Bed, which is synonymous with Westin Hotels.

The hotel will introduce a spa facility named "Heavenly Spa by Westin™," which will be the first of its kind in Japan. Additionally, it includes a fitness center and an indoor pool within a comprehensive wellness floor of over 1,000 square meters.

In this way, if Westin’s concept of well-being involves communicating with the community, valuing nature, and ensuring quality sleep, meals, and exercise... then ♡

I believe many engaged couples will resonate with this philosophy and fall in love with the hotel, making it a wonderful choice for their wedding ♡

To reduce the use of plastic bottles, original in-house water bottles that are mindful of the SDGs will be provided to guests, ensuring that photos of these will surely become a talking point on social media.

The cherry blossom trees that were present during the Sekichu era have been preserved in the redevelopment, leading to praises from local residents in cherry blossom season, thanking the hotel for not cutting them down.

This attitude of cherishing what was originally there makes the hotel feel beautiful.

About the Chapel ♡

This is likely to become a memorable scene for many, marking the image of weddings at The Westin Yokohama.

With the warmth of wood, sunlight pours generously through the large round skylight, blessing the newlyweds.

Not bound by any religious context, it is easy to conduct ceremonies such as a civil ceremony without strict formalities. During the consultations, a chapel planner will assist in deciding how the ceremony will be conducted.

Music options will include original BGM created by a musical group for The Westin Yokohama.

About the Banquet Hall ♡

The banquet hall is a comfortable space bathed in gentle natural light ♡

A bright and enjoyable banquet that maintains formality while being close to guests could be ideal ♡

The 23rd Floor and Garden are Wonderful ♡

The Westin Yokohama features a sky garden on the 23rd floor, making it an exceptional photo spot ♡

You feel like you’re monopolizing the blue sky of Minato Mirai, making for a perfect location ♡

While hotels are often associated with grand weddings, this garden-equipped banquet hall is perfect for couples looking for an intimate wedding celebration.

You'll likely reminisce with phrases like, "We rode that Ferris wheel together" or "Do you remember coming here with the family when we were kids?" while enjoying the view, sparking conversations about Yokohama and Minato Mirai♪

The top floor will serve as a spot for must-have photos that will become standard among brides and grooms who host their weddings at The Westin Yokohama.

With urban views overlooking the Bay Bridge and Minato Mirai, it creates a dramatic wedding themed around heavenly elements ♡

The nighttime view from The Westin Yokohama is truly beautiful and spectacular.

The 23rd-floor area alone has so many photo spots, making the day’s photo shooting an exciting prospect ♡

A dress show will take place here during a pre-opening event.

A New Lifestyle Hotel in Yokohama ♡

The Westin Yokohama is a sustainable, nature-loving, well-being lifestyle hotel newly opened in Minato Mirai.

It’s truly wonderful and something to be proud of that you can make this hotel, which is sure to grow in popularity and renown, your special place as a couple ♡
