Shizuru Kamogawa (Location: 145-1 Tennocho, Shimogyo-ku, Kyoto), an adult hideaway nestled by the Kamogawa River, will begin offering a special guest room featuring a private 'Noryo-yuka' (riverside summer terrace)—a hallmark of Kyoto's summer—starting May 1, 2026.
In a combined 113sqm space consisting of a private Noryo-yuka (46sqm) and the guest room (67sqm), the hotel proposes a stay where guests can indulge in the changing scenery of the Kamogawa River from morning until night.
Background: Reinterpreting 'Noryo-yuka' as a Private Space
Since the Edo period, 'Noryo-yuka' has been a beloved cultural tradition for enjoying the cool breeze alongside the murmurs of the Kamogawa River. The rows of lanterns along the river and the lively atmosphere of the people are iconic symbols of summer in Kyoto. Shizuru Kamogawa has reinterpreted this traditional atmosphere as a 'private space.' Moving away from the riverside hustle, guests can feel the flow of the river and the cool breeze at twilight on a terrace prepared just for them. This luxurious moment of quiet unwinding is the new way to enjoy tradition proposed by Shizuru Kamogawa.
Feature 1: [Space] 'Private Noryo-yuka' Dominating the View
Located on the 1st floor, this single-unit special room offers a 46sqm private Noryo-yuka. The essence of the bustling Noryo-yuka culture is reimagined as a private sanctuary. Guests can spend time in an open space where light and wind shift, feeling the river's murmur up close. This offers a new stay experience to savor the Kyoto summer to the fullest.
Feature 2: [Scenery] 'Staying in Noryo-yuka' to Cherish Time
Transforming Noryo-yuka from a 'place to visit' to a 'place to stay.' From the refreshing sparkle of the water in the morning sun to the openness filled with midday light and the tranquility of Kamogawa at night. Guests can entrust their five senses to the luxury of encountering the river’s beauty as it changes expression every moment, possible only through staying here.
Feature 3: [Coolness] 'Kyoto Toast' with Traditional Sparkling Sake
To add glamor to the Noryo-yuka experience, a welcome drink will be provided to commemorate the launch of the special room: a sparkling sake from a long-established brewery. The delicate carbonation and refreshing finish enhance the atmosphere of the terrace. Guests will be treated to a supreme sense of 'coolness' as their mind and body gently unwind by the flowing Kamogawa River. (Provided as part of the special room launch commemorative plan.)
