About This Venue

Aman Kyoto is hidden within a secret forest at the foot of the Kitayama mountains, accessible only via a stone path that winds through ancient cedar trees. The resort's 26 pavilions and suites are designed in the tradition of Japanese architecture, using natural materials that blend seamlessly with the surrounding forest.

The resort's culinary philosophy is rooted in the Japanese tradition of shojin ryori — the ancient Buddhist practice of plant-based cooking. The kitchen team creates extraordinary kaiseki menus using seasonal ingredients sourced from Kyoto's finest organic producers.

With a maximum capacity of 50 guests, Aman Kyoto is the world's most exclusive vegan venue for intimate ceremonies, elopements, and honeymoons seeking absolute tranquillity.

"Aman Kyoto is the most peaceful, beautiful place we have ever experienced. The plant-based kaiseki was a spiritual experience in itself. Our wedding was perfect in every way."

"I have stayed at Aman properties around the world, but Kyoto is in a category of its own. The forest, the food, the silence — it is transformative."
