To experience the Hoshinoya Ryokan is to take part in a vision. The idea that classical Japanese hospitality and culture can be infused with contemporary style.

As soon as you walk into the Hoshinoya you’ll realise that the history and the most tranquil aspects of Japanese culture can indeed inspire contemporary design, and blend seamlessly with modern ideas of luxury and convenience.

Make the Hoshinoya Ryokan part of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Japan and you’ll be carried by private boat along a gently-flowing river to Arashiyama – arriving at a picturesque retreat; one of the most beautiful hideaways in the whole of Kyoto. Once inside you’ll be treated to rooms that reflect traditional design, giving openness and a sense of peace, combined with sympathetic furnishings that are more familiar to Western eyes. You’ll also be able to experience authentic cuisine using seasonal ingredients and international ideas; and an interesting array of activities and excursions.
