Surrounded by many long-established ryokan (traditional Japanese inns) and restaurants, Aoi Kyoto Stay and Aoi Hotel Kyoto provide you with a convenient access to explore the cultural heart of Kyoto; the Gion and Higashiyama districts.

Our historical townhouses may seem mysterious at first glimpse. Yet, behind the heavy wooden doors you can find a cozy space in a warm atmosphere, which immediately makes you feel like staying at your close friend’s home.
Starting from the entrance and all the way up to every small detail in the house, what we strive to provide you is a unique living experience, almost as if you were actually a local in Kyoto. We guarantee that your Kyoto story will be a one-of-a-kind and not just simply a copied version of someone else's travel blog.

Aoi Hotel Kyoto, which is located right next to the bank of Kamo river, is different from any other hotels and shares very few similarities with a common concept of so called normal hotels. Based on our fundimental philosophy, we created six unique rooms by pursuing a perfect balance between art, traditional Kyoto culture and a convenient modern life style.
In Aoi Hotel Kyoto, we collect exquisite antiques and art pieces, regardless of their place of origin and generation, to create a unique ambience in which you can experience the authenticity of Kyoto.
