The rooms and pavilions are inspired by the simplicity of a traditional ryokan, using natural materials, clean lines and large windows to frame the surrounding forest. The most spacious pavilions offer generous living areas, private gardens and beautiful views, creating a particularly peaceful base from which to explore Kyoto.

Wellness is closely connected to the Japanese setting, with Aman Spa offering indoor and outdoor onsen bathing, treatments inspired by local ingredients and healing traditions, yoga and mindfulness. Guests can also enjoy forest bathing, guided garden walks and quiet moments surrounded by nature.

Dining at The Living Pavilion changes with the seasons and celebrates Japanese ingredients, while the Tea House offers traditional matcha experiences. Aman Kyoto is particularly special for travellers who want to combine Kyoto’s cultural treasures with complete peace and privacy. Book through Sojournelle to enjoy Aman VIP perks, benefits and amenities, together with personalised assistance throughout your stay.
