"You are going to want to book into the new Fauchon Kyoto not just for its French influence (yes, it is “Fauchon” of French patisserie fame) but because, in a city dripping with exceptional hotels including the Ace and the Aman, Fauchon somehow bagged the best location in town. The 70 rooms overlook the Kamo River and are within strolling distance to the historic Matsubara bridge and Shijo Kawaramachi shopping district, not to mention the 1,600 Buddhist temples and 400 Shinto shrines dotted all over town. At this second boutique hotel by the Parisian brand, magenta-colored furniture are accented with golden sakura petals to celebrate its Japanese location. Rooms are decorated with washi paper and the hotel offers traditional tea ceremonies as well as Fauchon French goodies like millefeuille pastries by local bakery, Izutsu."
