About a 1-minute walk from Kyoto-Kawaramachi Station, this Hotel features a large public bath with great views where you can enjoy natural Onsen water from the source.

Hankyu Line "Kyoto Kawaramachi Station" is a 1-minute walk, and Keihan "Gion Shijo Station" is a 4-minute walk, offering an excellent location. Shijo Kawaramachi, Gion, Pontocho, Kiyamachi, and Takashimaya are all within walking distance. At the "Sky Terrace," enjoy a drink while soaking your feet in the Onsen foot bath and admiring the Higashiyama mountain range. Experience the standing infinity bath with all your senses at the open-air Onsen bath on the top floor. The Kyoto Kaiseki breakfast box "Treasure Box of the Ancient Capital" can be enjoyed in your Room or on the rooftop terrace.

  • I stayed here last year to celebrate my birthday, and loved it so much that I returned again this year for my birthday celebration.This time, I truly appreciate your even more thoughtful hospitality. Thanks to you, I was able to relax wholeheartedly in the Room.This year’s concept was to take things slow at a Hotel.First, I enjoyed a Multiple Night Stay at a wonderful Hotel in Umekoji.Then I came here. The atmosphere is different, yet even better.It feels very calm and serene.I think it’s because you make the most of the location by the Kamo River and help guests experience Kyoto in such a comfortable way.Even though it’s right in the bustle of Shijo-Kawaramachi,this is a space where you don’t feel any of that at all—remarkable.Your affiliated HIYORI Ocean Resort Okinawa is also one of my favorites—a wonderful Hotel that lets you truly feel the beauty of Onna Village.And now SORANIWA Terrace Kyoto has won me over too!At this rate, I’ll probably be back again for my birthday next year.

  • The Room, Onsen, and service were all excellent, and we had a very comfortable stay.Just one thing: the welcome drink was served on the rooftop terrace, which was a wonderful service. However, it was simply too hot during summer, so we would be even happier if it could also be offered in an indoor space.

Sky Open-Air Bath

On the top floor, we offer two spectacular Onsen bathhouses with breathtaking views of Higashiyama: "Yasaka no Yu," an open-air bath featuring natural Onsen water from our private source, and "Niwa no Yu," bathed in soft light. These two bathhouses alternate daily between men and women. Both bathhouses are equipped with a deep bath and a silky jacuzzi bath. The deep bath, with a water depth of 1.2 meters, allows you to bathe while standing, providing a full-body massage effect through water pressure. The silky jacuzzi bath generates microbubbles in a milky white Onsen, which penetrate deep into pores to remove excess sebum and impurities. Known as a "beauty Onsen," it leaves your skin smooth, hydrated, and less prone to cooling, making it especially popular among women.

About Hygiene Measures
[Soraniwa Terrace Kyoto: Infection Prevention Measures] 1. Mask use when commuting We provide masks to all employees and require them to wear them when commuting to and from work. 2. Temperature and health checks upon arrival Thermometers are installed in the staff room, and we ensure temperature checks and hand sanitizing. Any employee with a fever of 37.0°C or higher, or who is feeling unwell, will be asked to stay home until they have recovered and sufficient time has passed. 3. Personal hygiene management during work Employees are required to wash hands frequently, sanitize hands, and gargle. After entering/leaving the office or using restrooms, employees must wash hands, gargle, and sanitize multiple times per day. 4. System for managing unwell employees We have established guidelines for actions to take when feeling unwell and have introduced a system to monitor employee health conditions. 5. Disinfection procedures We regularly wipe down with alcohol-based disinfectant areas that guests frequently touch, including guest rooms, doorknobs, remote controls, chairs and tables, the front desk counter, pens used at check-in, elevator buttons, and more. At Soraniwa Terrace Kyoto, we implement these measures to welcome our guests in the best possible condition. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. General Manager
