TRUNK HOTEL

-

The cool kid on the Shibuya block is all about sustainabi­lity. ‘Locally sourced’, ‘recycled’ and ‘eco-friendly’ are phrases that apply to most things in the hotel, from glassware crafted from recycled light bulbs to Shibuya-made honey (available from the in-house lifestyle store). The bar is lined with upcycled cork stools — order the Getting Trunk, a cocktail mixed with Ogasawara rum and hōjicha tea — or lap up locavore life at Trunk Kitchen, which serves health-conscious cuisine like an on-trend vegan breakfast. Each of the 15 guest rooms is different, ranging from a simple standard affair to a sprawling, duallevel terrace suite with a plunge pool. And to lure you away from the Trunk experience, excursions include fish market tours and home-cooked meals with locals.

ROOMS: From €261 (£224), room only.
