RIHGA Gran Kyoto

RIHGA Gran Kyoto was born in a location about a 3-minute walk from the Hachijo East Exit of Kyoto Station. In collaboration with artists and companies active in Kyoto, we have prepared a variety of enjoyable activities such as art, music, books, and food, so that you can enjoy a new Kyoto experience while staying at the hotel.

In the morning, the restaurant offers Kyoto "Shikisai-bako" ("Four Seasons Box") a stacked breakfast based on the concept of the four seasons in Kyoto. In the daytime, the restaurant is a free lounge exclusively for hotel guests, and in the evening, it is a bar where you can enjoy Japanese sake. Spend a special time in a hotel filled with comfort and playfulness.

Interior design crafted by Hashimoto Yukio Design Consultants, a renowned firm celebrated for blending Japanese tradition with modern elegance. The hotel’s 260 rooms feature a harmonious mix of Kyoto’s cultural heritage and contemporary sophistication, with elements like warm wooden accents, shoji-inspired screens, and soothing color palettes evoking the city’s serene aesthetic. Public spaces, including the lobby, showcase intricate latticework and paper-framed lamps, creating an ambiance of refined tranquility. Thoughtful details, such as locally inspired artwork and furnishings, reflect Kyoto’s seasonal beauty, while modern amenities like spacious wet-room bathrooms and city-view terraces ensure comfort, making the design a seamless fusion of tradition and modernity.
