Thanks to its storied history and bountiful natural setting, Kyoto has a rich food culture. At HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO, the culinary team selects the finest ingredients from around the world and across Japan, starting with famed local Kyoto produce, to deliver the ultimate gastronomic
experiences to your table.
Our restaurants and bar facilities consist of 4 distinct sections: TOKI, FORNI, THE GARDEN BAR and SHIKI-NO-MA, all of which surround our beautifully curated garden, where diners can enjoy viewing the rich tapestry of the seasons.
Immerse yourself in the seasons at TOKI, where a variety of innovative dishes showcase the culinary artistry of Kyoto. Our “fond” (stock), made from Kyoto‘s natural waters, forms the foundation of each dish and is prepared by Chef Asano to accentuate the abundant seasonal
ingredients. Chef Asano selected as Japan's representative at the Bocuse d'Or International Culinary Competition 2027.
Delicious grill dishes and authentic pizzas from our ovens. A Japanese space infused with modern touches. Enjoy the colours and flavours of the 24 seasons of the lunisolar calendar, brought to you by our creative culinary team.
The soft lighting illuminates our elegant Japanese garden as the sun sets. Relax, unwind and reflect on a say spent exploring the ancient capital over a drink and a bite to eat.
HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO is located on the site of Kyoto residence of the Kitake, the executive branch of the Mitsui Family. Recognizing this important part of our heritage, SHIKI-NO-MA is a faithful yet modern reconstruction of part of the former Mitsui residence, constructed from Japanese
cypress. SHIKI-NO-MA can be used for a variety of purposes, such as exclusive dining events and tea ceremony gatherings.
Savor the beauty of the seasons with our breakfast at FORNI, overlooking the serene courtyard garden at HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO. Choose from a breakfast buffet featuring the chef’s specialties and warm dishes from the kitchen, a traditional Kyoto-style Japanese breakfast served in an elegant oju box, or a thoughtfully prepared vegan breakfast highlighting natural and organic ingredients.
EMBRACING JAPAN‘S BEAUTY - our brand concept at HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO. With great care, we have selected a range of products that we feel capture this concept. The unique beauty of Japan as seen in traditional culture, craftsmanship and food.
