Intimate setting

family-run for 5 generations

downtown Kyoto

ryokan with Japanese garden

Kaiseki cuisine

The Kanamean Nishitomiya is one of the ryokans which have survived in the modern surroundings of downtown Kyoto. The wooden architecture hosts only eight suites which lead to a little Japanese garden with seasonal flowers. Futon, tatamis, bamboo furniture… true serenity is prevailing. Mr and Mrs Nishida, the fifth generation of hoteliers in this property, welcome you personally, respecting the Japanese tradition of hospitality. Like the very beautiful crockery in which the dishes are served, your hosts look after every detail inspired by the history of the Honeyanocho district, renowned for crafted fans, which have given their name to the hotel.

Activities, excursions and other attractions during your stay at the Kanamean Nishitomiya

Cultural experience in Kyoto with Maiko and Geiko traditional performances

Kyoto is the only city where the culture of Maiko and Geiko exists in Japan. Maiko and Geiko are young women who expertly sing, dance and play a shamisen (a three-stringed instrument) as a form of delightful entertainment at a banquet. A Maiko is a young girl (about 15 to 20 years of age) who is yet to become a Geiko. After training for 5 years as a Maiko, the girl then holds the title of a Geiko. Maiko and Geiko are affiliated with “Okiya” that are centred around Kyoto’s Gion area, and from each Okiya, they are called to perform in tea houses and places such as Nishitomiya Kanamean. Guests enjoy wonderful dinners while being entertained by Kyoto’s traditional dances, shamisen (a three-stringed instrument), ohayashi (flute and drums), and unique games with Maiko and Geiko.

Exclusive shopping in Kyoto by bike or on foot

Kyoto was Japan’s capital city for 1,200 years. Kyoto is known to be the city where Japanese culture was born and shaped into what it is today. Kyoto's original and sophisticated cultural offerings include World Heritage temples and shrines, architecture, tea ceremonies (sado), flower arranging (kado), incense ceremonies (koudo), paintings, music and other arts. Enjoy your shopping trip by bike or on foot in Kyoto, a beautiful city where scenery and nature are marvellous in all four seasons.
