“A chic contemporary hotel set in the heart of historic Higashiyama district. Spacious rooms and suites are a fresh take on traditional design using plenty of glass, ash wood, and local artwork. A small spa offers Kyoto-inspired therapies and there are three standout restaurants too. Luxury defined.”
