Tucked just north of Kyoto’s Imperial Palace, The Screen blends Japanese tradition with contemporary edge – each of its rooms uniquely styled by different designers. The result is a curated stay that feels more like an art installation than a conventional hotel, yet without losing touch with the calm and grace of Kyoto.
Despite the bold interiors, the ambience remains serene, with thoughtful service and a rooftop terrace offering glimpses over the old capital’s rooftops and treetops.
