The Knot
The Knot is a modern hotel in Shinjuku with over 400 rooms in a tall building overlooking Shinjuku Gyoen Park. The spaces are small yet comfortable, combining minimalist design with practical conveniences like desks, televisions, and complimentary toiletries.
The hotel opened in August 2018, representing a modern architectural phase in Shinjuku, an area defined by tall buildings and urban development. Its opening came during a period when Tokyo saw growth in smaller hotels with local focus.
The name reflects a sense of connection, matching the hotel's approach of bringing people together in the city. Guests use the spaces and nearby park to meet others or find quiet moments away from the busy streets.
The location is easy to reach by public transit, with multiple subway stations nearby, and the park is accessible on foot. Bicycles can be rented to explore surrounding areas, though the hotel has no parking and cars are not needed.
The hotel has flexible event spaces on the second floor that can be used for celebrations like proposals or special moments. These rooms are specifically designed to support personal occasions in a quiet, comfortable setting.
