Couples’ Time in Kyoto

Translated as “healing at home,” our original rituals and treatments at The Spa invite you to deepen your connection with each other. Rebalance your mind and body together in a Zen-inspired space as you enjoy an array of treatments performed by our skilled therapists.

Savour a romantic meal on our outdoor terrace at Emba Kyoto Chophouse, overlooking the 800-year-old Shakusui-en pond garden. Let our head chef wow you with delicate and creative menus that include everything from afternoon tea made with seasonal ingredients to à la carte dishes featuring local vegetables grown at nearby Higuchi Farm.

Prepare and savour tea in our traditional Tea Ceremony Room over garden views as an expert teaches you about the aesthetics and delicacy of the Japanese tea ceremony. Delight in the Kyoto hospitality and embrace the essence of Japanese serenity and tranquillity.

Our pond garden is where couples come to create memories among its natural beauty and romantic atmosphere. Cherry blossoms bloom in spring, lush greenery grows in summer, colorful foliage falls from the trees in autumn and snow paints the landscape in winter. At Shakusui-en, immerse yourself in 800 years of history and Japanese aesthetics amid the changing seasons and abundant nature.

Begin your day with an exclusive relaxed dining experience for two in the comfort of your room or suite, or savour a buffet breakfast at Emba Kyoto Chophouse alongside garden views. With a variety of breakfast options, including miso soup made from Kyotanba koshihikari rice and black bean miso, tofu made with soya milk from Kyoto Miyama and Japanese breakfast infused with Kyoto Obanzai style, you’re sure to start your couples’ day of exploration on the right foot.

The Lounge & Bar is the ideal space for couples looking for a sophisticated, romantic experience. Offering a stylish and comfortable ambiance, our modern lobby lounge provides a dynamic atmosphere for enjoying drinks and conversation together.
