Four Seasons Kyoto
A modern garden sanctuary draped in history

About The Hotel
Built some 800 years ago at the foot of a mountain in the scenic Higashiyama temple district, our 10,000-square-metre, circuit-style ikeniwa, or pond garden, is a haven of quiet dignity – and one of the few remaining gardens created at the end of the Heian Period, the peak of Imperial Japan.
A rich model of modernism resonates throughout the hotel while carefully maintain traditional Japanese conceptions of architectureThe spacious guest rooms and suites are some of the largest and most comfortable around — especially with double-height windows flooding the spaces with natural light.
