Description

Located in the historic Miyagawa-cho district, Capella Kyoto is a four-story sanctuary designed by architect Kengo Kuma. Built on the site of the former Shindo Elementary School, the hotel is centered around a lush internal garden and sits steps away from the Kennin-ji Temple, blending Gion’s geiko heritage with modern luxury.

The property features 92 guest rooms and suites, starting at a spacious 50 sqm. Guests can retreat to the Auriga Spa, which offers private onsen suites, a sauna, and a 24-hour fitness center.

  • SoNoMa by SingleThread – A signature restaurant by 3-Michelin-starred Chef Kyle Connaughton, featuring seasonal Japanese-Californian farm-to-table cuisine.
  • Lanterne – A sophisticated French brasserie offering refined all-day dining.
  • Yoi – A specialty Japanese gastro-bar focused on artisanal spirits and curated pairings.
  • Patisserie – A dedicated space for exquisite pastries and premium teas.
