    About the RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

    The RIHGA Royal Hotel is conveniently located just a short walk from many of Kyoto’s ancient temples and shrines. Built in 1969, the Kyoto Grand Hotel, as it was then known, was opened in anticipation of the 1970 Japan World Exposition. Since then, the hotel has remained a familiar landmark in Kyoto and underwent extensive renovation in 2016 to become a modern, spacious hotel, ideal for your stay in Kyoto.

    Your Stay

    Featuring contemporary decor with Japanese touches, all guest rooms come with a satellite TV and minibar, Laura Ashley toiletries, air humidifier and kettle. The hotel’s leisure facilities feature a heated indoor pool, jacuzzi and warm room plus a well-equipped fitness gym.
