THE RYOKAN COLLECTION
ROOM
Yuuseki / Koukoku
Yuuseki (Tranquil Stones) comes from a well-known poem by the 13th-century Zen priest Dogen describing a pond wrapped in wintery mists. Koukoku is the name of a Kyoto teahouse constructed by 20th-century garden architect and ikebana artist Shigemori Mirei. These two standard rooms feature a cozy layout with two armchairs next to a balcony shielded by sliding shoji screen doors, perfect for a romantic getaway. Yuuseki is carpeted, while Koukoku has hardwood floors. They both have the same amenities as the premium suites, including fully equipped kitchenette, all-natural Noble Isle amenities, bespoke linen sheets, and Japanese-style pajamas designed by the owner herself.
