Checking In: Six Senses Kyoto
Posted
20th February 2025
In culture-rich Higashiyama, one of Kyoto’s most touristy areas lies an oasis. Located just 20 minutes away on foot from the crowded Kiyomizu-dera temple, Six Senses Kyoto is a welcome retreat. The brand’s first outpost in Japan is fast becoming a standard-bearer in the land of Zen. Those familiar with the concept, but new to its city hotels will be pleasantly surprised to see how Six Senses has adapted its resorts’ barefoot luxury aesthetic to a refined, elegant city vibe. Here, the concept of miyabi, which refers to courtly elegance, is celebrated through design.
