Grand Hyatt’s Pokémon stay

Grand Hyatt Tokyo is selling a limited-run Pokémon hotel package this summer, tying one of Japan’s biggest entertainment brands to a luxury stay in Roppongi. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp) The promotion runs from June 20 through August 26, 2026, with bookings open from April 8 through August 24 on the hotel’s website. Grand Hyatt says the collaboration includes two plans: a suite stay limited to one group per night and a standard stay limited to eight rooms per day. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; tdrexplorer.com) The top-tier package uses the 120-square-meter Chairman Suite and starts at 400,000 yen for one night for two guests, including tax, service charge, and accommodation tax. The standard plan starts at 71,500 yen for a 42-square-meter twin room, according to travel outlets summarizing the launch. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; tdrexplorer.com) The timing lines up with Pokémon’s 30th anniversary year. The Pokémon Company says the franchise reached that milestone on February 27, 2026, marking 30 years since the original Pokémon Red and Green games launched in Japan on February 27, 1996. (pokemon.co.jp) Grand Hyatt’s package turns that anniversary into a travel product. The hotel says the rooms use an “adventure” theme built around Pokémon from the original Red and Green era, with Grass-type, Fire-type, and Water-type designs spread across different parts of the suite. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; tdrexplorer.com) The suite includes 30 Pikachu plushies in the living room, plus Psyduck and Lapras plushies in a bathroom with a rain shower, steam sauna, and limestone bath. Grand Hyatt says guests can take home some collaboration goods, but not the room decorations or plushies used as part of the display. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp) Food is part of the pitch too. The suite package includes an in-room Flying Pikachu burger set for dinner and an American breakfast with pancakes stamped with Flying Pikachu, while the hotel says more Pokémon-themed restaurant and pastry items will be announced in mid-May. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; tdrexplorer.com) The take-home items lean into collectible merchandise as much as hospitality. Grand Hyatt lists a passport case, polo shirt, hat, tote bag, outdoor lamp, cushion, a talking mini Pikachu, and plush Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle for suite guests, with a smaller set of goods for the standard plan. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; tdrexplorer.com) The hotel is also keeping supply tight. Outside the single suite, the standard plan covers eight rooms a day, putting the total at nine themed rooms nightly during the promotion. (tdrexplorer.com; en.japantravel.com) For travelers, the offer is less a general sale than a summer window with fixed dates, limited inventory, and franchise-specific extras. For Grand Hyatt Tokyo, it is a way to turn Pokémon’s anniversary year into a premium, bookable experience in the city center. (tokyo.grand.hyatt.co.jp; pokemon.co.jp)
