ANNOUNCING ACE HOTEL KYOTO IN PARTNERSHIP WITH ARCHITECT KENGO KUMA AND NTT UD

Opening Winter 2019

Kyoto, Japan, April 6 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- ACE HOTEL TO OPEN FIRST JAPANESE OUTPOST IN KYOTO

Since the beginning of Ace, we’ve dreamt of Japan. We’ve spent decades admiring Japanese culture and craftsmanship, collaborating from afar with Japanese artists and brands whose work we love — BEAMS, Porter, Isetan, Takahiro Miyashita of Number (N)ine, Kenzo Minami, Hender Scheme and Traveler’s Company, to name a few, hoping for the chance to put down roots.

Now, we’re proud to announce we’re partnering with NTT Urban Development Corporation for Ace Hotel Kyoto, a new cultural hub as part of the redevelopment of ShinPuhKan. Designed in part by the famed architect Kengo Kuma, Ace Hotel Kyoto will open in Winter 2019 in an area with a valuable industrial and imperial legacy. Kuma’s designs blend new with old, incorporating renovations of the historic building — erected in the mid 1920s as the Kyoto Central Telephone Office — into the new build.
