Nijo, Kyotoホテル ザ ミツイ キョウト
HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa
A 160-room hotel directly in front of Nijo Castle in central Kyoto, on the site of the Kyoto residence of the Kitake, the executive branch of the Mitsui family, which the family held for more than 250 years. Guests enter through the restored 1703 Kajiimiya Gate, the rooms are a modern take on the Japanese tearoom, and a natural hot spring rises from about 1,000 metres below the building.
