Nazuna Kyoto Tsubaki St.

＜Notice regarding preventive measures against COVID-19＞

Nazuna Kyoto Tsubaki St., a luxury ryokan renovated from an entire L-shaped alleyway of machiya (traditional Japanese townhouses) spanning 1,400 sqm, built over 110 years ago. The reception building on an unassuming street serves as both an entrance to welcome guests, as well as a passage from the outside world into Tsubaki St. On the other side, guests are greeted by an otherworldly, nostalgic street view – a world reminiscent of the historical geisha districts of Kyoto known as Hanamachi. At dusk, guests can experience the luster of Tsubaki St. as the chochin (Japanese paper lanterns) and oki-andon (Japanese paper lamps) illuminate the stone-cobbled path.

The 23 machiya lining the street have transformed into 23 individual guest rooms with a private semi open-air bath, named and decorated according to elements of nature that have long been cherished in Kyoto: TAKE (bamboo), MIZU (water), IWA (stone), HANA (flower), and HA (leaf). The 9 twin rooms of TAKE and MIZU feature a first-floor living room alongside a space with a semi open-air bath, and a second-floor bedroom. The 14 deluxe rooms of IWA, HANA, and HA feature a first-floor bedroom alongside a space with a semi open-air bath, and a second-floor tatami area where futons can be used for additional guests. Throughout each room, guests can enjoy the unique décor and interior design inspired by each of the five elements.
