The Mitsui Kyoto

The Mitsui Kyoto, the Mitsui family’s flagship hotel, blends modern elegance with rich history

Guests enter the estate, opposite UNESCO-listed Nijo-jo Castle, through a 300-year-old gate. Designed by André Fu’s team, the hotel offers 161 rooms and suites, three restaurants, and a calming spa and onsen, all centered around a serene garden courtyard.

Its Japanese modernist décor, inspired by traditional tea houses, ensures a soul-refreshing stay for exploring Kyoto.
