SPA Treatments

At HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO we have prepared a set of unique SPA treatments, including body treatments featuring original massage oils.

Based on the ancient principles of Japanese traditional Anma Massage – combined innovative facial treatments developed overseas – we have prepared a number of treatment options that focus on Ying/Yang Balance and the Five Elements (metal, wood, water, fire and earth). These traditional techniques, blended with innovative approaches, are what makes the SPA treatments on offer at HOTEL THE MITSUI KYOTO so special.

Enjoy our SPA treatments together with a visit to the Thermal Spring and Private Onsen and embark on a truly pampering SPA journey that can only be experienced in Kyoto.

*Guests staying at the hotel can enjoy special discounted rates (some exclusions apply).
