Hoshinoya Kyoto is a hotel with a view of the red leaves outside and a cozy atmosphere inside.

How can you miss Hoshinoya Kyoto? This hotel is hidden deep in Arashiyama and has only 25 rooms, but it is full of charm!

The special way to check in is to take a boat 🚤 upstream along the Hozu River to reach this hotel, which gives you a sense of ceremony as soon as you step in.

🍂Hoshinoya Kyoto has 5 room types: Mizune, Shizuku, Tsukibashi, Yamahata, and Tanigasa. Each room type has a unique view, and the Tsukibashi room type overlooks the beautiful Arashiyama Gorge, which is the most representative room type.
The Yamahata and Tanigasa rooms are duplexes that overlook the entire hotel and the surrounding natural scenery, making them ideal for guests who want to enjoy the tranquility.

🏠The rooms are designed with a focus on space and comfort, combining traditional Japanese design with modern elements. Tatami mats, Japanese wooden doors, and futon mattresses make you feel as if you are in a pure natural environment. The hotel has removed the TV and replaced it with the Four Treasures of the Study, encouraging you to slow down and immerse yourself in the tranquility of life and nature.

🍽️The food at Hoshinoya is also a highlight not to be missed! Kaiseki cuisine made with fresh local seasonal ingredients, with its presentation and unique flavors, makes every meal an artistic experience. In addition, most of the meals are served in the guest rooms, so you can enjoy the beautiful scenery while tasting the food, which is a rare experience.

♨️The hotel's hot spring area is built on the mountain, and the water source comes from the pure waters of Arashiyama, where you can experience an open-air hot spring.

In addition to the hot springs, the hotel also offers traditional cultural experiences such as tea ceremony, flower arrangement, and meditation, allowing you to experience the authentic Japanese aesthetics of life.
