Property info

Shukubo KANETSUNE is located within the grounds of Koseiin, a Rinzai Zen temple with a historic garden designated as a Scenic Site by Kyoto City. This exclusive two-story villa hosts only one group per day, offering complete privacy and tranquility.Passing through the gate, the bustle of the outside world fades away, revealing a serene and extraordinary retreat. The shukubo was supervised by world-renowned architect Toyo Ito, laureate of the Pritzker Architecture Prize and other international awards, and designed by Michiko Okano. Through the careful renovation of the temple’s kuri (monastic living quarters), the space harmoniously blends tradition and modernity, creating a refined and elegant atmosphere.
