Time Out says

Shinjuku's Kabukicho district is currently abuzz with excitement following the opening of a new 225m-tall skyscraper and entertainment complex. Tokyu Kabukicho Tower has 48 storeys and five basement levels boasting a wide range of facilities including two hotels, a nightclub, a gaming arcade with a bar and a massive food hall.

The developers aimed to create a space that would appeal to the fun-loving community of Tokyoites of this generation by covering various aspects of music, nightlife, food and art. As part of this goal, they commissioned 26 local artists to create large-scale installations that can be found throughout the building.

Hotel Floria Tokyo - Sanrio Characters Exhibition

South Korean digital art and design firm D’strict is joining hands with Sanrio to bring a popular interactive exhibit to Japan for the first time after a successful run in Seoul last year. Utilising the latest digital media technologies, the hotel-themed exhibition in Shinjuku’s Tokyu Kabukicho Tower takes you on a photogenic and immersive journey through 11 themed areas in the imaginary hotel, with characters such as Hello Kitty, My Melody, Kuromi, Cinnamoroll and Pompompurin appearing in their own dreamy, fairytale-like rooms. While the full details are still under wraps, expect to see a plentiful line-up of exclusive Sanrio merch, including Hotel Floria room key charms, hotel sticker sets and travel-themed accessories. The exhibition space is located on the fourth floor. Tickets are now on sale via Eplus.
