"TRUNK Hotel’s youthful yet sophisticated vibe meshes perfectly with its surroundings in stylish Shibuya. Located in a quiet street, the boutique hotel is housed in two adjoining four-story buildings. Trunk’s commitment to social contribution shines through, with thoughtful attention to reusing and repurposing of resources. The interiors in both the public spaces and guestrooms make innovative use of upcycled materials, and even the bicycles for guest use have been salvaged from around the city and meticulously restored to perfect working order. Each spacious guestroom has a unique design, adorned with works by local artists and locally-sourced amenities. The all-day restaurant serves Japanese-Western fusion cuisine, including terrace seating, and the bar is an inviting space to reflect on the day’s adventures over a cocktail. Appealing as much to locals as it does to visitors, the atmosphere at TRUNK invites connections and creativity, making it ideal for the gregarious solo traveler who loves to meet new people." - Louise George Kittaka
