Garrya Nijō Castle Kyoto, Kyoto Hotels
Luxurious hotel with a garden, a French-Japanese restaurant, and views of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Nijō Castle
Overview
Garrya Nijō Castle Kyoto is an intimate luxury hotel that transports you back to the period between the end of the Samurai era and the dawn of a new age. The hotel has about 25 rooms, including one suite, paying homage to the city’s historic past and tech-forward present. Throughout the hotel, you’ll gaze out of floor-to-ceiling windows to a garden filled with indigenous trees and moss. You’ll be just a 6-minute walk from the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Nijō—a traditional Japanese castle characterized by its beautiful gardens and architecture and the “nightingale floors” that chirp when walked upon.
The Deluxe rooms at Garrya Nijō Castle Kyoto welcome you with a comfortable and relaxing ambience, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and lacquered furniture in an auspicious shade of red—a tribute to an art form that goes back centuries. The Well-Being room has a sliding panel that separates the bedroom from the bathroom, creating a restful space for unwinding in the deep soaking tub. The Nijō Castle View rooms offer panoramic views of the UNESCO site from the highest floor. In contrast, if you stay in the Bamboo Garden rooms, you can relax on the furnished terrace and enjoy your own Japanese garden.
Some rooms provide yoga mats and resistance band items if you want to exercise during your stay. Once you’ve worked up an appetite, make your way to Restaurant Singular at the hotel, where the head chef transforms locally sourced ingredients from the best producers in Kyoto and across Japan into culinary masterpieces. You’ll find fresh, seasonal produce selected personally by the chef and sourced directly from producers all over Japan.

When is the best time to visit?
Late spring and early autumn have traditionally been considered the best times to visit Japan, but more and more travelers are seeking trips to this mountainous county in the winter to take advantage of its snowy season. Skiers and snowboarders are flocking to Japan in December through March in search of the powdery, light snow the region is increasingly known for.
Where to go in Japan?
The possibilities are endless. Night owls will love the 24-hour food and drinking scene of bustling city centers like Tokyo and Osaka, older cities that are embracing the new with plenty of flair and energy. Rural travelers will enjoy the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Shiretoko National Park in the mountains of Hokkaidō and the balmy subtropical islands of Okinawa.
How many days do I need?
Since there is so much to do in Japan and travel within the country via the high-speed bullet trains is so easy, visitors can opt for trips of any duration. To do any justice to this amazing country, spend at least a week and ideally up to three.
Getting Around Japan
Most visitors to Japan fly into one of Tokyo's two airports, Narita International Airport or Haneda Airport (Tokyo International). Trains connect both airports to downtown Tokyo, and from there, extensive and efficient rail networks carry passengers to destinations on Honshu, Hokkaido, Shikoku, and Kyushu.
