Highlights

Dining: All-day dining at RAQOU
Wellness: Kyoto Keage Onsen and Le Jardin Sothys
“In Kyoto's Higashiyama ward, this hotel places you next to UNESCO sites, but within its walls lies a different draw: the natural hot spring, a true rarity. I was particularly struck by the Urasenke tea ceremony, an authentic experience led by a master. With gardens, a spa, and diverse cuisines all in one place, the hotel emphasizes immersing guests in both nature and tradition.”
