About HOSHINOYA Tokyo
HOSHINOYA Tokyo opened in July 2016 at Otemachi, a financial district located in the heart of Tokyo. With two basement floors and 17 floors above ground, it is a “tower of ryokan (Japanese-style inn)”. It is common for traditional ryokans to be a single-story building and to be located outside the city but here, each floor of 6 rooms represents a small ryokan and it is piled up to create a “tower of ryokan” in an urban setting. The interior is furnished with tatami (mat of woven straw) and can only be entered after taking off the shoes at the main entrance. Whilst keeping the comfort of modern life, guest rooms incorporate essences from traditional, Japanese lifestyles, which include the use of tatami, shoji (paper doors), and furniture made with bamboo and chestnut wood. A fulfilling experience at HOSHINOYA Tokyo awaits, as Japanese culture is conveyed through seasonal decorations and activities, as well as omotenashi, Japanese hospitality.
About HOSHINOYA Kyoto
HOSHINOYA Kyoto in Arashiyama, Kyoto, is a ryokan with a river view from all rooms and is located in an area that once flourished as a vacation home area for the Heian nobles. Whilst preserving the traditional Japanese architectural design and incorporating modern comforts, it opened in 2009. Away from the hustle and bustle near the Togetsu-Kyo Bridge, a famous landmark of Arashiyama, HOSHINOYA Kyoto is 15 minutes by boat up the Oi River. Calm and serenity await at this secluded ryokan, where guests can immerse themselves into the world of HOSHINOYA like no other. The fine works of local craftsmen in Kyoto, who are well-versed in the idea and production of incorporating modernity into traditional crafts can be found throughout the ryokan. Touches of omotenashi, culture, history, seasonality, and craftsmanship of Kyoto can be felt from every corner and moment in the ryokan for an immersive stay experience.
