Quietly sitting on a suburban street just five minutes from bustling Kyoto Station, the Dusit Thani is an intentional blend of Thai and Japanese design elements creates a stylish sense of serenity from the moment you set foot inside the chicly wood-panelled building. Natural materials in soothing hues permeate each of the luxury hotel’s four levels and sub-level wellness floor, showcasing a fusion of Thai and Japanese design. A central garden courtyard, lined with the hotel’s restaurants (including signature dining venue Ayatana, where world-class Thai cuisine is served in Japanese-inspired surroundings), allows you to enjoy the serenity and beauty of Kyoto’s seasonal foliage.
The rooms are decked out in a palette of mushroom and taupe with the occasional splash of colour. The rooms have a comfortable king-size bed or Twin Beds, a working desk, a balcony and floor-to-ceiling windows. The wooden flooring extends into the bathroom, which is fitted with a signature rainfall shower.
The lobby lounge features a subtle design motif of a five-story Buddhist pagoda or goju-no-to, a common element of Japanese religious architecture.
