Overview
The former Associa hotel above Shin-Yokohama Station closed in July 2026. Its successor, Courtyard by Marriott Shin-Yokohama Station, is scheduled to open in the same building on December 18, 2026. Reservations opened under the Courtyard name in October.
Rooms
The Courtyard will have 203 refurbished rooms across floors 13 to 19. Standard king and twin rooms measure about 23 square meters, while larger layouts include 51-square-meter premium rooms. The selection also includes two accessible rooms and two pairs of connecting rooms.
Facilities
Reception and the fitness center will be on the 10th floor. On the 12th floor, The Cross Hub will provide a shared lounge where guests can work or take a break with soft drinks.
Dining
Royal Host on the 10th floor will serve a breakfast buffet of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes, including Yokohama-style ramen.
Location and transport
The building stands directly above Shin-Yokohama Station. Tokaido Shinkansen trains stop here, as do the JR Yokohama Line, Yokohama Municipal Subway Blue Line, Tokyu Shin-Yokohama Line, and Sotetsu Shin-Yokohama Line. Cubic Plaza has shops and places to eat in the same station building.
Shin-Yokohama isn't central Yokohama. Minato Mirai, Chinatown, and the waterfront require a local train ride. The wider Shin-Yokohama Station Area is geared more toward transport, business, and events.
Airport access
Keikyu limousine buses connect Haneda Airport with Shin-Yokohama Station. This is a public airport-bus service, not a hotel shuttle, and journey times can vary with traffic. Check the operator's current timetable before traveling.
Why stay here
Once the Courtyard opens, staying directly above the station should simplify early Shinkansen departures and late arrivals by train. Yokohama Arena is about four to five minutes on foot from the station, so the building is also convenient for concerts and other events.
Travelers spending most of their time around Yokohama's waterfront may prefer Minato Mirai or Kannai. This address is better suited to trips where easy Shinkansen access matters most.
Good to know
For stays before December 18, book another hotel. For later dates, look for rooms under the Courtyard name rather than Hotel Associa.
