Our Inspector's Highlights

  • Park Hyatt Kyoto’s style seamlessly blends classic Japanese architecture with the luxury hotel brand’s signature modern minimalist aesthetic. The result is a sleek, contemporary stay with an authentic, oasis-like feel.
  • Thanks to its position along the Higashiyama hillside, Park Hyatt Kyoto offers some of the best room views in the city. All accommodations offer vistas over the neighborhood's historic black-tiled roofs, but the best sights include framed views of the famed Yasaka Pagoda through large picture windows.
  • Unusual for a city-center hotel, Park Hyatt Kyoto’s rooms are spacious — starting at a generous 484 square feet — and feature luxe marble bathrooms with deep soaking tubs. Fragrant tamo wood and Zen garden views complete the urban oasis aesthetic.
  • Don’t miss the chance to enjoy a cuppa in the historic Soyotei teahouse. Dating back to the Edo Era, the structure includes a private room where samurai used to secretly meet during the final days of the shogunate.
  • While the intimate 70-room Kyoto hotel doesn’t have a pool, it does offer a charming Japanese bathhouse. The soothing space includes a sauna, steam room, hot and cold plunge pools and showers that make for a nice escape from the bustling streets just outside your front door.

The Restaurants

  • So named for its jaw-dropping view of the pagoda and historic cityscape, signature dining room Yasaka specializes in classic Japanese teppanyaki with an emphasis on fresh, Kyoto-sourced ingredients (see: perfectly seared wagyu beef served with seasonal produce like fresh green asparagus and wasabi).
  • Connected to the luxury hotel via a garden pathway, Kyoyamato has served seasonally inspired kaiseki (intricate, multicourse dishes) meals since 1877. Six generations of the same family have kept a watchful eye over the kitchen, ensuring a top-quality feast every time you visit.
  • With its casual vibe and street-side location, Kyoto Bistro is a relaxing spot for a bite any time of day. Enjoy Japanese and international plates for breakfast with a dash of people-watching or stop by for lunch or dinner and be served on handmade earthenware crafted by local pottery master Asahiyaki.
  • Catch sunset views of Yasaka Pagoda with a cocktail in hand at Kohaku. Adjacent to Yasaka, the venue partners with Kyoto-based spirit makers to curate a highly specialized selection of whisky, sakes and gins that are prominently featured in a unique menu of sips.
