The fifth Hotel Indigo in Japan and the first Hotel Indigo branded hotel in Kyushu opens 13 December 2024.
Hotel Indigo, part of IHG Hotels & Resorts’ luxury and lifestyle portfolio, has opened Hotel Indigo Nagasaki Glover Street on 13 December, marking the brand’s 5th property in Japan. Hotel Indigo Nagasaki Glover Street is located in the Minamiyamate area of Nagasaki, a town full of color and exotic atmosphere. The hotel has breathed new life into one of the city’s most iconic 19th Century redbrick buildings, with the brand’s neighbourhood storytelling bringing guests a unique experience full of rich history and possibility.
The hotel’s opening was celebrated with an “Open the Umbrella” ribbon cutting ceremony, using local umbrellas with patterns related to Nagasaki, a nod to the city’s vibrant past as the place where Western-style umbrellas were first introduced. The opening celebration was an expression of the hotel weaving its history and opening the door to the future.
The hotel is located in the exotic Minamiyamate area, which includes the “Old Glover Residence,” an important cultural asset and a World Heritage Site, and the national treasure “Oura Tenshudo.”
Renowned as the world’s neighbourhood hotel, each of the 66 guestrooms are inspired by the liveliness of the town, while the hotel’s lobby area is reminiscent of the social gatherings of former merchants. The hotel’s restaurant, Cathedréclat, is a spectacle in itself with soaring 10-meter ceilings and impressive stained-glass windows enchanting guests as they dine in the once-Cathedral setting.
The hotel celebrates the “Wa-Ka-Ran Labyrinth” philosophy, which is the merging of the individual uniqueness of Wa (Japan), Ka (China) and Ran (Dutch) to create a new and exotic culture. Everything from the city’s festivals to the locals’ clothing, sights and food are a mix of these cultures, and as guests walk around the town there is an unforgettable sensation of possibility and exploration in a foreign labyrinth.
Each Hotel Indigo is as unique as its location, drawing vibrant inspiration and energy from the local culture, aiming to immerse guests in authentic experiences and forge genuine connections with its neighborhoods.
With 162 open hotels across the world, Hotel Indigo currently stands as the second largest brand within IHG’s Luxury & Lifestyle portfolio. The brand will continue to debut in new markets in 2025, including the opening of Hotel Indigo Palau, the first in Micronesia, and Hotel Indigo Auckland, the first in New Zealand.
Guests can also benefit from IHG One Rewards, offering enhanced opportunities to earn and redeem points across IHG Hotels & Resorts, including exclusive benefits tailored to their preferences, supported by leading technology on the IHG mobile app.
