About

TrunkCat Street

TrunkCat Street is a 5-star boutique hotel tucked into Jingumae, Shibuya — one of Tokyo’s most creative and energetic districts. With just 15 rooms, it feels more like a curated guesthouse than a conventional hotel, delivering a personal, design-focused experience. The hotel is a short walk from the venerable Meiji Jingu Shrine, Harajuku’s bustling streets, and the upscale shopping of Omotesando and Aoyama.

Inside, the hotel pairs modern comfort with a relaxed, natural aesthetic: think recycled materials, high ceilings, and plant-filled balconies. The on-site à la carte restaurant and snack bar serve a praised breakfast and creative dishes, while amenities like a welcome drink, in-room tea and coffee, and a garden terrace add to the easy-going vibe. For exploring the city, the 24-hour reception, airport shuttle, and luggage storage make it a practical base.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

  • Design-led, intimate atmosphere — With only 15 rooms, the hotel offers a boutique feel that guests describe as stylish, relaxed, and unique — featuring recycled materials, high ceilings, and plant-filled balconies.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small property, limited rooms — With just 15 rooms, availability can be tight, and the intimate scale may not suit travelers seeking a large, anonymous hotel experience.
  • No parking on-site — The hotel does not list parking as an amenity, so guests driving into Tokyo will need to plan for nearby public parking.
  • Pets not allowed — The hotel’s policy prohibits pets, so animal companions must be left at home.
  • Noise potential despite soundproofing — While rooms are described as soundproofed and generally quiet, a few guests mention 'fairly quiet' rooms — suggesting occasional external noise in this lively area.
