Ark Hills (アークヒルズ) is one of the major office developments of Mori Building in Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan. The complex was completed in 1986 and includes the ANA Tokyo Hotel, the ARK Mori Building (a 37-floor, almost 2 million sq ft mixed use tower), a world-class Suntory Hall concert hall, a TV studio and several apartment buildings. Every September the area celebrates with an autumn festival that includes music, dancing, food, art, and shopping.

The name "ARK" comes from the fact that the complex is equi-distant from three of the prime commercial districts of Tokyo: Akasaka, Roppongi and Kasumigaseki. It is built on a slight slope, rather than a hill. Residents of the building include business travelers and celebrities.
