The interior design concept reflects the art of the Japanese tea ceremony. We incorporated the omotenashi spirit, the Japanese hospitality, into the space reminiscent of a tea room, where a host warmly serve one’s guests with meticulous attention. The easy-to-use sanitary features and the daybed inspired by Japanese engawa (veranda-like porch) offer the guests a comfortable stay with functionality.

For the spatial elements, wooden lattices, tatami mats, sliding doors, hanging scrolls, and tea ceremony utensils are given a modern twist. They create an atmosphere with a sense of dignity essential in a tea room, but a space with a contemporary expression. In addition, artworks such as the original pine and chrysanthemum graphics inspired by the sliding door paintings in Nijo Castle, and wallpapers featuring the beautiful surrounding mountain range, add color to the space and a unique personality to HIYORI Chapter Kyoto.

The hotel sits in a premium corner location, with its sharp in-situ concrete facade quietly blending into the existing urban context. The white stucco walls match those of traditional townhouses, such as the one next door. Guest rooms overlook Oike avenue, best known as venue of the famed Gion Festival, where proceedings of huge floats mark its climax. To take full advantage of the commanding location, rooms are fitted with large expanses of floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing guests to feel “immersed” into the city.
