Tokyo – 13 June 2017 – 
The 143-room Pullman Tokyo Tamachi is being developed as part of the MSB Tamachi mixed-used complex and will open before the end of 2018.

“Japan keeps attracting more and more international travelers, with historically high growth rate recorded in the beginning of 2017,” said Patrick Basset, chief operating officer for Upper Southeast and Northeast Asia, AccorHotels.

“The increasing inbound market, especially from Korea and other Asian countries (China, Taiwan, Indonesia, Vietnam) is on a continuous positive trend which will be amplified as the country will benefit from the worldwide attention with the upcoming 2020 Summer Olympic Games.”

Pullman Hotels & Resorts, AccorHotels’ “new generation of upscale hotels”, is described as “a cosmopolitan brand that offers hyper-connected travelers a seamless experience that combines contemporary design and energizing culinary concepts”.
