experience

Traditional tea ceremony, meditation, and Way of Fragrance. Kyoto’s history cannot be told without its many cultures and practices. These traditions passed down for generations are well-known but thought to be inaccessible. To debunk that, NOHGA HOTEL KIYOMIZU KYOTO collaborated with experts from Kyoto to offer programs where you can casually experience traditional cultures with a hint of modernity. We await you with stimulating and nurturing experiences, inspiring you to further discover the unknown side of Kyoto.

Self Experience

We have prepared programs where you can experience the traditions and lifestyle of Kyoto casually in guest rooms. Enjoy the experience in your own space and get ready to discover the unknown side of Kyoto for the following day.

Well-being is one of the keywords NOHGA HOTEL KIYOMIZU KYOTO values. To symbolize that we have planned and created Meditation Room. The theme of the room is “Sagan”, which means the left bank on the Kamo River in Japanese. Experience the changes in four seasons, night and day, and yourself during our 30-minute meditation program. Close your eyes and feel the universe within yourself.
Complimentary for guests in-house. Reservation required.
