The RitzCarlton Kyoto
  • Superb location on the banks of the Kamo River. Sit back and people watch as joggers pass by and families head out for an evening stroll.

  • Central enough that you can walk right into the heart of the city, this makes it ideal for anyone keen to explore on their own or for families with older children eager to experience Kyoto’s seriously sophisticated cocktail scene.

  • The hotel’s public spaces are cool and contemporary but still include a number of traditional Japanese elements so you never lose the sense of place.

  • Service is some of the best in the country with butlers on hand to take care of your stay and an incredible concierge team capable of opening some very exclusive doors to the most beautiful private gardens or ancient artisan’s studios.
