Our central courtyard garden, designed by landscape architect Shunsaku Miyagi, measures 1,300 square meters and reflects a deep respect for Kyoto. It embodies the harmony between structures and gardens, serving as a modern recreation of the garden that graced the former Mitsui residence. It is a place for meditation, yoga and thoughtful reflection.

Experience a truly pampering spa journey unique to Kyoto, where tradition meets innovation.
