A comprehensive renewal project will start on April 1, 2015, for the major facilities of The Crest Hotel Tachikawa, including guest rooms and restaurants. It is expected that the renewal process will take approx. 6 months to complete.

The agreement will enable JAL Hotels to meet the demands of the ever-increasing number of inbound customers from overseas while also upgrading and expanding the services for local customers. Under the slogan "New Experience Creating New Value", Hotel Nikko Tachikawa Tokyo will provide its guests with unparalleled hospitality in a tranquil and high-grade atmosphere. The hotel will feature the Zelcova (Keyaki) tree, a symbol of Tachikawa City, in all hotel accommodations as well as the lobby, thus creating a space for relaxation and healing surrounded by natural wooden materials. The higher floors will accommodate a fantastic chapel and bridal rooms with natural light, to be also used and loved by local guests for creating fond memories. JAL Hotels is committed to further expanding its franchise chains, both domestically and overseas, by opening additional hotels in cities with high potential for increased numbers of tourists and business travellers. |
