In downtown Kyoto, Dhawa Yura is an absolute gem of a property that oozes charm and sophistication in equal measures.  This boutique hotel offers 5-star service, facilities and design, one of the best locations in this ‘eternal city’. Walking distance to Nishiki Market, the Gion neighbourhood, and only a few stops away from the central train station – everything on your agenda will be easily reachable from this stylish property.

Inside you’ll find plenty of character, and a lush feel thanks to the mini bamboo growing in the central courtyard, up from the ground to the first floor. The hotel maintains an east-meets-west vibe, coupling authentic Japanese hospitality with modern amenities to make it an ultra-comfortable and relaxing place to be with simple reminders of  your surroundings. A grill restaurant and bar, as well as highly rated spa, enhance the whole experience of Dhawa Yura, expertly run by consistently friendly and welcoming staff. There’s a reason why this hotel is up there on our most recommended stays.
