'A serene sanctuary where ancient Higashiyama temples meet contemporary luxury, offering an intimate glimpse into Kyoto's soul.'
What's Special?
Nestled in the historic Higashiyama district, this boutique retreat sits mere steps from UNESCO World Heritage sites Kiyomizu-dera Temple and the iconic vermillion torii gates of Fushimi Inari. The hotel's design masterfully blends traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern sophistication, featuring locally-sourced materials and artwork by Kyoto artisans. Each of the 70 rooms showcases stunning views of either the temple-dotted hillside or the hotel's meticulously maintained private gardens.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book a corner suite facing east for sunrise views over the pagodas, and request the hotel's private temple tour guide for exclusive after-hours access to nearby sacred sites.
