Capella Kyoto - A Virtuoso Preview Property
Capella Kyoto is part of Virtuoso’s exclusive Preview Program, projected to open in Early 2026.

Located in the historic Miyagawa-chō district, Capella Kyoto bridges past and present in this UNESCO World Heritage-celebrated city. A curated collection of Japanese artworks and artifacts are on display throughout the 89-key, luxuriously serene hotel, which surrounds a bamboo garden courtyard. Experience Japan’s famous bathing culture with a luxurious onsen ritual in the Auriga Spa — or in the privacy of your suite’s deep-soaking ofuro. There’s omakase-style dining at the casual Carte Blanche, along with an upscale brasserie and Japanese specialty restaurant.
