Malda Kyoto

In central Kyoto, a short walk from Nijo Castle, Kyoto Imperial Palace, the Kaleidoscope Museum of Kyoto and the Kyoto International Manga Museum. A compact, design-led small hotel near Karasuma Oike — perfect for exploring the city on foot.

Opened in 2018 and inspired by Jürgen Lehl’s Babaghuri design ethos, the hotel features just a few thoughtfully styled guestrooms with blackout drapes and in-room safes. Select rooms include air conditioning, refrigerator and coffee/tea makers; toiletries, hair dryer and linen service are available in some rooms. The vibe is minimalist, textile-forward and quietly curated.

Free Wi‑Fi throughout, on-site parking and an elevator make stays easy; the property is completely smoke-free. Enjoy excellent coffee at the café each morning and a restaurant on site, plus room service if you prefer to stay in. Luggage storage and safety deposit boxes are available at reception.

Complimentary Wi‑Fi and luggage storage help business travelers stay connected and organized; safety deposit boxes and accessible on-site parking add practicality.

Daily complimentary local-cuisine breakfast is served 7–9 AM, featuring vegetarian recipes inspired by Jurgen Lehl’s cafeteria — exclusive to guests. A café offers great coffee and the hotel restaurant provides additional on-site meal options, plus room service when you want to dine in.
