Shinagawa Prince Hotel (Takanawa, Minato-ku, Tokyo) is opening its pools for the summer season from July 4 (Saturday), 2026, under the name "Summer Pool in SHINAGAWA." Located just a 2-minute walk from Shinagawa Station, the hotel offers both an outdoor pool and an all-weather indoor pool, with daytime and nighttime swim sessions available to both hotel guests and day visitors.
With another sweltering summer forecast following last year's record-breaking heat, and amid a growing interest in close-to-home leisure options, the hotel is positioning its pools as a resort-style cooling spot in central Tokyo — no long travel required.
