A modern twist on the traditional tearoom

Located in the heart of Kyoto, Hotel The Mitsui Kyoto is a modern reimagining of the traditional Japanese tearoom, with 161 rooms to choose from. The spaces, which beautifully reflect the tranquillity and storied history of the area, feature carefully-chosen natural materials and the work of skilled artisans.

The culinary team selects the finest ingredients from around the world and across Japan, to deliver the ultimate gastronomic experiences to your table. The restaurants and bar facilities consist of five distinct sections, all of which surround a beautifully-curated garden, where diners can enjoy viewing the rich tapestry of the seasons.

When you’re not out exploring, the thermal spring spa facilities are a haven for relaxation.
