Things to Know



Aman Kyoto is nestled in an enchanting garden amongst the foothills of Hidari Daimonji mountain, located in the north of Kyoto. The luxury resort is just minutes away from the city center and only a 20-minute walk away from Kinkakuji's golden temple. To get to Aman Kyoto, it takes around two hours by car or 90 minutes on an express train ride from Kansai International Airport. For those coming from Osaka International Airport (Itami), it's a one-hour drive, while it takes approximately 30 minutes by car to arrive at Kyoto Station.


Accommodations



Aman Kyoto's 26 Guest Rooms, Suites, and Pavilions feature striking minimalist geometries and classic ryokan elements such as tatami matting and sliding doors. Interiors start at 60 square meters, providing a spacious and light-filled atmosphere that is carefully crafted to promote peace, relaxation, and contemplation.


From their latticed Pavilions, which are a contemporary homage to traditional ryokan inns, to east- and west-facing rooms showcasing spectacular natural surroundings in the resort's Kamiya River or gardens, there is something for everyone.

The interiors of the rooms offer peace, relaxation, and contemplation at every turn with modern amenities such as spacious and light-filled spaces, king or twin-size beds, tatami flooring in some rooms, traditional futons available, and even Japanese baths made of Hinoki cypress wood.

No matter what type of accommodation you choose when staying at Aman Kyoto, you will be sure to have an unforgettable experience.


Aesthetic



Aman Kyoto is a paradise of beauty and tranquility where the natural landscape meets centuries-old artistry. Stone pathways wind through the forest floor, inviting visitors to explore its serene grounds. Moss-covered stone slabs provide a solid foundation for the resort's architecture. Set close to what was once an artistic community that gave rise to the Rinpa school of painting four hundred years ago; it offers easy access to some of Kyoto's most important historical sites.


Dining



For those looking to experience the finest Japanese cuisine, Aman Kyoto offers two incredible restaurants. At The Living Pavilion by Aman, find all-day dining with a generous terrace, garden, and forest views, as well as elegant interiors surrounding a central fireplace. Enjoy innovative, borderless cuisine and homecooked Kyoto-style dishes based on the farm-to-table concept, with seasonal menus changing often. For something truly unique, visit Taka-An, where you can experience sumptuous kaiseki cuisine that celebrates the legacy of iconic artist Hon'ami Koetsu—founder of the Rinpa School of Painting, who established an artist's village in Takagamine in the early 1600s. Enjoy a constantly evolving menu full of exquisite flavors guided by an omakase philosophy—where only the finest ingredients available are used for each meal. Guests can also opt for a picture-perfect picnic in the gardens or forest nearby.


Spa



Aman Kyoto Spa offers a holistic approach to relaxation and healing, featuring traditional onsen bathing facilities alongside treatments utilizing the bountiful natural ingredients of Japan. The spa features three treatment rooms, a spa lounge with a retail area, and breathing and meditation exercises in the gardens. Signature treatments make use of Aman Skincare products; meanwhile, local ingredients such as Kyoto green tea, Tamba kuromame black beans, local sake, cold-pressed camellia oil, and Kyoto silk cocoon provide the opportunity for unparalleled rejuvenation.

With its ancient temples, vibrant shrines, peaceful gardens, and delicious cuisine, Kyoto is a top destination for travelers from all over the world.
