Impressions
Nestled along the serene banks of a winding river, this exquisite hotel is a hidden gem that offers a delightful escape from the everyday hustle and bustle. The journey to reach this tranquil oasis is as enchanting as the destination itself, as guests arrive via boat or private car, instantly immersing themselves in the natural beauty of the surroundings. For leisure travelers seeking a picturesque getaway, especially during the fall months when the maple leaves burst into a dazzling palette of crimson and gold, this hotel is nothing short of a postcard-perfect retreat. With only 25 thoughtfully designed rooms, each offering breathtaking views of the river, every stay is imbued with a sense of intimacy and exclusivity. The impeccable service, coupled with the Japanese-style beds and fast Wi-Fi, ensures that guests can unwind and rejuvenate in style.
To truly savor the magic of this hotel and its picturesque surroundings, we recommend planning your visit in late autumn, when the landscapes are adorned with vibrant foliage, enhancing the visual feast offered by this enchanting setting. Arriving a day or two before your hotel stay allows you to immerse yourself in Kyoto’s rich cultural tapestry by visiting nearby temples and historical sites, ensuring that your experience is filled with both adventure and relaxation. After full days of exploration, indulge in the culinary delights of the hotel, where dining at the Michelin-starred restaurant promises an unforgettable gastronomic journey—a perfect evening to end your day in tranquility. To make the most of your retreat, consider spending at least one to two nights at the hotel, allowing for ample time to relax, recharge, and soak in the natural splendor that surrounds you. We do advise, for peace of mind, to purchase cancellation insurance prior to your booking, as the serene location lacks a cancellation policy. Come for the unparalleled views and exquisite experiences, and leave with memories that will linger long after you've returned home.
