Hotel · Karasuma Shimmachi, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto

Ace Hotel Kyoto is the first Asian property from the Portland-born design hotel group, set inside the 1926 Shinpukan — a Showa-era former telephone exchange remodelled by Kengo Kuma's office in collaboration with Los Angeles studio Commune. The 213 rooms range from 28 sqm Japonisme bunks to top-floor tatami suites, dressed in handwoven indigo throws by Kasuri masters and prints by Samiro Yunoki. Stumptown Coffee and Mr Maurice's Italian occupy the ground-floor courtyard. The hotel anchors the Shinpukan retail block.
