The Muji Hotel in Japan Is Every Minimalist's Dream Come True

When it comes to minimalist, sleek designs, Japanese retail company Muji easily comes to mind. This also rings true for their hotel properties—the first of which opened in Shenzhen in January 2018. After the second Muji Hotel welcomed guests in Beijing in June 2018, the Japanese brand is poised to open a new branch in Ginza—Tokyo, Japan's most famous shopping, dining, and entertainment district. Muji Hotel Ginza, which is scheduled for a grand opening on April 4, is now accepting reservations through their website.

Muji has a whole line of products that do not only fill your office desks, but also your homes. Their storage boxes, nylon mesh, and pen holders are perfect for the neat freaks, their all-white appliances and furniture are must-haves for modern-style homes, and their pens and notebooks are too #aesthetic to resist. Check out Muji Hotel Ginza below.

All rooms come with a tablet, which you can use to control lighting, room temperature, and more.

Type A, the smallest room at 14 square meters, fits a semi-double bed for one, a refrigerator, safe, electric kettle, Bluetooth speaker, and even a television.

Muji Hotel also uses Japanese-style platform bed. The 36-square-meter Type F room fits up to two people.

This style is reflected in Muji Hotel Ginza's 79 compact rooms, which are located from the sixth to 10th floor of Muji Ginza. Their interiors are inspired by wood, stone, and earth elements—in fact, some of the brick walls come from repurposed stones from old trolley ways that thrived in Tokyo five decades ago.

Another room features a bunk bed with a bookshelf.

Muji Hotel Ginza's biggest room is at 52 square meters. It has a twin-sized bed, a reading room with bookshelf, and a living area.

The hotel occupies the sixth to 10th floors of the Muji global flagship store. The 10-storey building also houses Japanese restaurant WA, Muji Diner, a salon, and a bakery. The whole building reflects Muji's ethos of “eat well, walk more, sleep well, clean often.”
