The Most Unique Japanese Key Hotels That Defy Categorization
"Machiya — long, narrow, traditional wooden townhouses — are more unique to Kyoto, and this hotel pays tribute to their history, with the architect’s primary goal to keep the original proportions of the machiya that made its home here before the hotel. The rest of the inspiration comes from the 1,000-year-old novel the Tale of Genji, with tributes in the form of gardens, sculptures and art by Kyoto artists in each room." - The MICHELIN Guide
