"Perched midway up the hill leading to the UNESCO World Heritage Site Kiyomizu-dera Temple, the luxe heritage hotel and former elementary school, originally built in 1933, provides plenty of photo-perfect opportunities."
"Gorgeously landscaped, sprawling grounds dotted with striking statues and open-air corridors lined with dramatic greenery and trickling streams evoke a hidden oasis."
"This is all thanks to Ryu Kosaka of Nomura Co. Ltd., who retains glimpses of the building's elementary school days throughout the property to jaw-dropping effect."
"A grand staircase, atmospherically illuminated at night, is the focal point of the U-shaped brick building, guiding guests into a world full of pared-back modern luxury and historic charm."
