The Ritz Carlton Kyoto impresses with its perfect balance of traditional elegance and modern comfort. Its exclusive setting on the Kamogawa River and close proximity to the city's cultural highlights make it an ideal choice for families who value both luxury and authenticity.
Best time to travel
The best time to visit Kyoto is from March to May and from October to November. In spring (March to May), the famous cherry blossoms and mild weather create ideal conditions for walks through the city’s historic temples and gardens. Autumn (October to November) brings a breathtaking display of seasonal colour, bathing traditional Japanese landscapes in warm shades of red, yellow and orange. Both periods are especially well suited to exploring Kyoto’s cultural and historic landmarks, as well as enjoying the city’s seasonal festivals and events.
