Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto is located next to Kiyomizu-dera Temple, on a hillside in Kyoto’s Gion and Higashiyama area. This 52-room Hotel opened in August 2024. Surrounded by a bamboo grove and set within a sanctuary rich in nature, it features natural Onsen. While within walking distance of Gion’s major attractions, you can still enjoy a quiet stay away from the crowds.
