“Nazuna Kyoto Nijo-Jo impressed me with its tea-themed suites and tranquil atmosphere, a blend of cultural immersion and modern luxury that stands out near Nijo Castle; the private open-air baths and Irori-style breakfasts promise an intimate, authentic experience. I found the hotel's focus on local artisans and personalized hospitality particularly compelling, making it a noteworthy adults-only retreat. A stay here, in my view, would be truly special.”
