In the heart of the former imperial capital, a luxury hotel brings all of Kyoto’s pleasures in one stunning and storied address
Beside the UNESCO-listed Nijo Castle is another stunning structure steeped in history; Hotel The Mitsui Kyoto, with its sleek lines and gleaming glass walls, sits on a piece of property that has belonged to the Mitsui Family for over 250 years. The André Fu-designed hotel is nothing less than a showcase of Kyoto’s authentic cultural experiences — including guest rooms inspired by the traditional teahouse — as well as its finest crafts. The 300-year-old Kajiimiya Gate, a hotel centerpiece, was restored by local artisans. The property is also a sanctuary for relaxation in the heart of the city. Among its most notable spa experiences is the Thermal Spring, a healing bath in natural spring water drawn from an onsite source.
