The Hyatt Regency Kyoto is a luxury hotel tucked away in the east of Kyoto, in the quiet and green district of Higashiyama Shichijo. This area was once home to the ancient capital’s imperial court, but today it’s a great base for sightseeing. Nearby attractions include Tofukuji Temple, the Kyoto National Museum, and the Geisha of the Gion District. Décor is contemporary and chic, courtesy of Japanese design powerhouse Super Potato. However, the interiors also feature traditional details, such as antique kimono wall hangings and headboards, as well as the gentle glow from paper lamps. Modern amenities at the Hyatt Regency are of the highest quality, as you would expect from a luxury hotel brand, while unique touches such as kaiseki banquets served at the hotel’s Tozan restaurant create a more local experience. The Hyatt Regency Kyoto was also voted one of Time’s Top 5 Places to Stay in Kyoto, due to luxury facilities such as the three high-class restaurants (serving French, Japanese and Italian food, including takeaway baked goods) and opulent treatments at the in-house spa. This hotel accommodates both business and leisure travellers, though Wayfairer highly recommends this sleek and sophisticated property to couples and honeymooners looking for a luxury experience and the opportunity to indulge at the Riraku Spa.
