ENSO ANGO FUYA II - Luxury hotel in Kyoto
Explore an ancient city through a contemporary lens from this Kyoto escape
Set across five Zen-inspired buildings, ENSO ANGO FUYA II is all about harmony. This artful boutique retreat blends seamlessly with the cityscape, inviting you to walk Kyoto's historical paths as you explore the hotel. Each of the five buildings has a different contemporary feel, yet their traditional Machiya structure brings a sense of unity and calmness.
As you step inside, the aesthetic attention to detail is immediate. Designed with tranquillity in mind, the calm palette and crisp lines in each suite invite you to relax – right away. Uncover clarity of mind in the Zen meditation room, or take lessons in traditional cooking and crafts. Walk, run and cycle between the hotel buildings: these spaces are where mind and body can come together, away from the bustling crowds of Gion.
The unique layout of the hotel encourages exploration. Wind your way through the city’s traditional and modern architecture, soaking up the Kyoto way of life. From the famous Nishiki Market, to Gion's magnificent temples, to the understated 'ochaya' teahouses – this is Japan in its element. Relish local cuisine, explore the arts, crafts and philosophy, and be swept up in one of many festivals in Kyoto's calendar. It all happens on the doorstep of ENSO ANGO FUYA II.

Almost but not quite SLH
October 2019
My Trip Type: Couple
‘Experience’ tour of Gion was great.
Top tip for other guests:
The location, bedroom and bathrooms are great. However this hotel offers the extras which make a hotel SLH but not all of them were executed. The ‘experience’ tour of Gion was perfect. Only very small servings were offered for drinks and canapés which guests had to request refills as there was insufficient for all the guests to experience. Similarly breakfast offerings were so small a number of guests were bringing in their own food to have with a cup of tea or coffee Guests even had to request the teapot was refilled to make tea. There did seem to be enough staff although a very high percentage were trainees and the staff were not proactive

Not at the level of a SLH
September 2019
My Trip Type: Business
Internet worked well and the hotel is well located and overall brand new. However, breakfast -complimentary for everyone not just SLH members - is a joke. No honeymoon enhancement or personal attention whatsoever. Again not a bad hotel, but just not at the level of other SLH hotels.
Top tip for other guests:
No real enhancement coming from your SLH status which is not even acknowledged

Great location but poor breakfast
August 2019
Hotel is very conveniently located, close to many of Kyoto's main attractions. Our room was reasonably big (for Japanese standards) with a view on the street (given it's a side street, it's not very noisy). You can rent bikes from the hotel which is great to explore the city. The breakfast is very basic though, only bread, butter, and some spreads. You have the option to opt into breakfast at any of their other hotels (which are close by) but those are very expensive.
Top tip for other guests:
Try to get a room that's facing the street as all other rooms have tinted windows, which other reviews complain about.

Not a luxury hotel
July 2019
My Trip Type: Individual
We were disappointed by the hotel. While the staff is very nice and helpful and the location is great ; rooms are very tiny and the breakfast is minimal. We selected this hotel as it was part of SLH group but were overall disappointed.

Superb hotel, Wonderful Hospitality
May 2019
My Trip Type: Couple
This newly opened hotel is absolutely marvelous! The rooms, the facilities, the services were all above our expectations. The hotel is beautifully designed with Japanese gardens and a tatami room. Guests are offered diverse cultural experiences from Zen meditation, yoga to Japanese cooking classes. Special thanks to the wonderful staff that goes out of its way to make guests feel at home. Important to know that activities and facilities from all five clustered hotels are available to all guests and its good to go visit them all.
Top tip for other guests:
Booking through SLH got us a lower price than direct booking and additional amenities.

The perfect base for exploring Kyoto
May 2019
My Trip Type: Couple
A lovely little hotel, very Japanese minimalist (slight lack of storage space in the rooms) but excellent finish. A nice lounge to sit and relax and all this helped with a very Zen feel to the whole place. Easy to walk around "downtown" Kyoto and explore the fantastic food and the Geisha districts (as well as some temples and shrines). This was a really nice change of pace from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and Osaka.
Top tip for other guests:
Walking around Kyoto is easy, lots of options for day trips from the location as well.

Very good location including bikes. But the breakfast included in the rate (also for SLH members) is really not up to standards.

Good room. Hotel rents bikes for free. Excellent location allows to cover whole of Kyoto in 2/3 days by bike, which we did. Walking distance from Gion and food market also excellent.
