About The Hotel

Set in a secret garden at the heart of a forest, Aman Kyoto rests a stone’s throw from Kyoto’s golden Kinkaku-ji Temple and 16 other Unesco World Heritage Sites. The resort is nonetheless a secluded world apart, with light-filled suites and pavilions set in tranquil glades and steaming onsen offering healing in the Aman Spa.

At this time 15 properties are on or close to a Unesco protected site and support them actively.

Aman enforces a strict policy with their suppliers about child protection and offers a support to programs tackling issues for women, children, against poverty and hunger. All properties support local school programs, orphanages and offer a support for female led businesses to create economic independence. Employment priority is given to local farmers and vendors as a support of local agriculture in culinary art, purchase of local products; fair trade, cage-free and free-range products. Aman properties offer healthy, sustainable, organic, seasonal food for guests and staff as well as providing the healthcare of employees and local communities.
