Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei

“Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei” opened on January 20, 2022, the first in about 20 years for the Hotel Okura brand in Japan.
Our space concept design team "RENS" was in charge of overall interior direction and interiors construction and FF&E construction.

In Kyoto, there are many world-class traditional crafts that are created by craftsmen using techniques that have been passed down since ancient times. We have created a hotel where you can connect the traditional crafts to the future and feel further possibilities.
We are collaborating with GO ON, a project unit made up of six successors of traditional crafts in Kyoto, to create a small luxury space filled with new crafts.

You can enjoy a soothing stay in the beauty of modern Kyoto at a hotel where you can feel a tranquil moment reminiscent of an adult retreat.

【customer's voice】
We have created a one-of-a-kind hotel suitable for the new era of Kyoto, where you can feel the aesthetics of Kyoto culture everywhere.
We are confident that everyone who visits our hotel will be satisfied.
