Nestled on the banks of Kamo River - Genji Kyoto is in a tranquil neighborhood yet centrally located for exploring the city. Its design is a contemporary interpretation of Kyo-Machiya townhouses - with 2 wings over 5 floors and connected by gardens through the hotel. A Zen garden inspired by the Tale of Genji adds serenity to a double-height lobby where furniture is all custom-designed and hand-crafted. Artisanal washi windows and lighting create a warm Japanese ambience for enjoying drinks and meals in the Genji Lounge with bar and restaurant. From the bamboo-lined entrance to concrete with organic wood patterns to the rooftop bar and garden - every detail is designed to instill the quiet delight that emanates from a true Japanese experience.
