OMO7 Yokohama by Hoshino Resorts to Open in Spring 2026, Utilizing Former Yokohama City Hall

Hoshino Resorts will open “OMO7 Yokohama by Hoshino Resorts” in spring 2026.

The former Yokohama City Hall, completed in 1959 and closed in December 2020, is being utilized in a large-scale mixed-use project called “BASEGATE Yokohama Kannai”, developed by eight companies. Under the theme of a “legacy hotel”, it inherits the design of Togo Murano, who was in charge of the government building.

The hotel will have a total of 276 guest rooms, with colors in rooms and public areas inspired by the tiles, furniture, and carpets used in the former city hall. The lobby will feature special lighting incorporating elements of the circular lighting once found in the former assembly hall.

In the newly established cafe, tile art from the city hall will be used directly on the walls. Furthermore, since Murano was renowned as a “master of handrails” for his staircase handrail designs, the grand staircase previously used in the citizens’ hall will be relocated and reproduced in the hotel’s atrium, with some handrails being reused.

Additionally, the facility will include a “Neighborhood Map” showcasing the deep charm of the area, exhibition spaces related to architecture and the history of Yokohama, meeting rooms, and an OMO dog garden.

Access is a 1-minute walk from JR and Yokohama Municipal Subway Kannai Station, and a 7-minute walk from Yokohama Minato Mirai Railway Nihon-Odori Station.
