Shiodome Media Tower

Shiodome Media Tower is a 34-story skyscraper reaching about 172 meters in Higashi-Shinbashi, combining office and media operations in its lower sections with hotel accommodations above. The Park Hotel Tokyo occupies the upper floors, creating a mixed-use building that blends commercial and hospitality functions.

The tower was completed in 2003 by Kajima Corporation as part of Tokyo's broader commercial district modernization. It represents a significant addition to the contemporary skyline that emerged from the city's late 20th-century development phase.

The tower functions as a major hub for Japanese news operations, with Kyodo News occupying its lower sections and shaping how information flows through the country.

The tower is located at a major transportation junction in Higashi-Shinbashi with straightforward access to trains and local transit. Visitors to the hotel floors benefit from clear signage and multiple entry points throughout the building.

The building features a soaring interior atrium stretching across ten floors that gives hotel guests unobstructed views of Tokyo's cityscape throughout their stay. This vertical opening provides a rare sense of space within Tokyo's densely packed urban environment.
