Cuisine

When our hotel was founded in 1949,
it started out as
a “ryokan with cuisine.”

In addition to generous portions and exquisite flavor, our dinner service features modern Baccarat glassware and valuable antiques such as Old Imari and Old Noritake, which have been treasured since the Edo period, to serve up visually stunning dishes for your enjoyment.

Maiko

Maiko, a unique culture
and tradition of Kyoto.

In Hanamachi (geisha districts) of Gion, you can see Maiko walking through the streets.
With this plan, you can enjoy the Maiko's elegant dances and “Ozashiki-asobi” (Japanese traditional games) while savoring delicious cuisine and enjoying conversation with them.
