“GRAPHY GARAGE – Yanesen Christmas Market” will be held on 12/6・7 at HOTEL GRAPHY NEZU.
HOTEL GRAPHY NEZU will host the 4th edition of its market event where shops from the Yanesen area gather at the hotel.
The event, “GRAPHY GARAGE – Yanesen Christmas Market,” will take place over two days, Saturday and Sunday, December 6 and 7, 2025.
A Cozy Mix of Yanesen Charm & Christmas Spirit
Since its opening in February 2013, HOTEL GRAPHY NEZU has operated under the concept “Meet Local. Feel Global.” It is a place where travelers from around the world and local residents come together, allowing guests to feel global culture while staying close to everyday local life. The hotel is located in the “Yanesen area,” a name that combines the areas of Yanaka, Nezu, and Sendagi. This neighborhood still holds traditional Japanese culture and is home to many unique shops such as old-style cafés, antique stores, and craft-focused lifestyle shops.
“GRAPHY GARAGE” began in April last year as a market event celebrating the hotel’s 11th anniversary. Local shops from Yanesen gathered inside the hotel for “GRAPHY GARAGE – Yanesen Local Market -,” and this year marks the 4th edition. This time, the theme is “Christmas,” and we will host “GRAPHY GARAGE – Yanesen Christmas Market -.”
The warm and nostalgic atmosphere of Yanesen will stay the same, while aiming for an event that feels like a colorful European Christmas market where people can enjoy the time together. During the event period, select shops, lifestyle stores, bookstores, and more from the Yanesen area will decorate hotel guest rooms and transform them into spaces filled with carefully selected items.
Guests can also enjoy Christmas-themed experiences through food and drinks, such as stollen and wine. In addition, interactive activities where guests can make Christmas items will be available. We hope you will join us with family and friends and stop by freely.
