Overlooking Nijo-jo Castle on the west side of the downtown area, Hotel the Mitsui Kyoto is a grand hotel with spacious rooms decorated with beautiful Japanese touches.

Hotel the Mitsui Kyoto
Opened in November 2020, the Mitsui is an elegant addition to the Kyoto luxury hotel scene. The hotel boasts a relatively convenient location, just steps from the castle and reasonable walking distance to downtown. Otherwise, there’s a subway station very close by and taxis will get you almost anywhere in the city in 10 or 20 minutes.
