Beside Nijo Castle in central Kyoto, Hotel The Mitsui is a Luxury Collection hotel of 160 rooms and suites on a historic Mitsui family site, with Kyoto-French dining, a natural onsen spa and a garden courtyard.
Hotel The Mitsui Kyoto, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa, sits in central Kyoto adjacent to the UNESCO-listed Nijo Castle, on a 250-year-old site that was once home to the Mitsui family’s executive branch. It has 160 rooms and suites in a modern interpretation of a Japanese tea room, in the Way of Tea tradition, and holds Forbes Five Stars and three Michelin Keys.
Dining spans the signature Kyoto-French TOKI, featured in the Michelin Guide, the garden-view Italian FORNI and the adults-oriented Garden Bar, plus a private tea room recreating a historic room. There is a Thermal Spring spa with an expansive private natural onsen of over 100 square metres and a private Japanese garden, treatments blending Japanese Anma with the five elements and a 24-hour gym. A 1,300-square-metre central courtyard garden recreates the former Mitsui residence garden, and experiences run from private monk-led temple tours to tea ceremony and calligraphy. Part of Marriott’s Luxury Collection, it suits culture-focused luxury travellers who want heritage, an on-site natural onsen and Michelin-recognised dining in central Kyoto.
Dining spans the signature TOKI, serving innovative Kyoto French cuisine and featured in the Michelin Guide, and the garden-view Italian FORNI.
