Dusit Thani Kyoto

What the classifiers highlight

Five minutes from Kyoto Station yet close to Nishiki Market and the Fushimi Inari shrine, the hotel blends Thai and Japanese design across four floors and a wellness level below. Forbes highlights the cultural program: tea ceremonies, a maiko dance workshop, a kintsugi class. Restaurants ring a central garden courtyard, among them Ayatana, which serves Thai cooking in Japanese-inspired rooms.
