HOTEL KUU KYOTO was designed under the concept of being “location-friendly.”
Here, “location-friendly” refers to the idea that the hotel was built in an area where locals and travelers exist in harmony, creating a friendly atmosphere where guests can experience a unique sense of calm and comfort.
“KUU” is the Japanese word for “space.” However, rather than focusing on the emptiness of a given space, or on how individuals and objects can be separated by space, the name was chosen to emphasize how the space connects us with not only others but with all things. It emphasizes the ever-evolving harmony between everything in the world and how our lives are built on helping each other.
Located directly in front of Higashi Honganji Temple, HOTEL KUU KYOTO takes advantage of Kyoto’s layout to offer the convenience of an urban hotel in a relaxing design punctuated by the stillness of a temple.
