A wordless performance, a restaurant lane, and dinner at your own pace.

Kyoto,
one good night.
Quiet lanes. A wordless show. A different Kyoto.
Make room for the Kyoto that comes alive after the day’s sightseeing: dinner in Pontocho, a non-verbal performance near Sanjo, or a music night at METRO. Near the station, a city view and a food hall make an easy pair.
A night to make your own.
