Sakura Terrace The Gallery

Rooms

The property is divided up into two buildings with contrasting styles; North and South. In the North, you’ll find rooms that feature soothing neutral tones, dark wood and clean, modern lines. Additionally, all the rooms boast a small balcony. Rooms in the South building have the same sleek lines, but feature a playful Pop Art theme, with Roy Lichtenstein-inspired splashes of red, blue and yellow. The balconies are more spacious here and Roof Rooms offer terraces with loungers.

Location

The hotel is less than a five-minute walk from the Hachijo exit of Kyoto Station and the various shops and restaurants within. From Kyoto Station, a four-minute journey on the Karasuma line to Karasuma Station takes you to the heart of Kyoto where the majority of nightlife and dining options are located.

Food and drink

The hotel’s restaurant serves two meals each day. Breakfast is a Western-style buffet that includes soups, rice and egg dishes, pastries and smoothies. All rice is locally sourced and polished on the premises. The dinner menu features both Western and Japanese dishes, and includes a selection of meals that you can take up to your room or balcony to enjoy in privacy. During the day, the restaurant turns into a complimentary café that serves house-roasted coffee and a selection of teas.

Every evening, guests can enjoy a complimentary drink at the bar.

Families

This hotel is not suitable for families with young children — it does not accept bookings for children under the age of 12.

Facilities and activities

The on-site public baths, which are separated by gender, feature saunas. The gym is basic and offers treadmills and yoga mats. Each day, the bar area serves cocktails and from 5pm to 9pm guests can enjoy their first drink on the house. Most nights local bands play live music in the bar area.
