History and Location

Kyoto is beautiful in all seasons. It has been 135 years since KANAMEAN NISHITOMIYA was established. We, KANAMEAN have thought much of the heart of Onko-chisin (The pursuit of new knowledge through studying what happened in the past and learning from the ancient knowledge of wise men.) since our establishment.

KANAMEAN NISHITOMIYA is located on Tominokoji Street and a little south of Rokkaku Street. This area is called Honeyacho, where many artisans have been making their livelihoods by creating the hones (called hone) of fans for years. Even now there are famous fan-shops, which have been passed down from generation to generation.

The Japanese word Kaname of KANAMEAN NISHITOMIYA has two meanings; 1. the rivet of a fan and 2. the center of the most important point. KANAMEAN NISHITOMIYA was named after the glorious history of fan making culture in the area and also embraces our hope to be the most important place among all the inns in Kyoto.

KANAMEAN is in the heart of Kyoto city, providing easy access to museums, Kyoto’s traditional craft shops, food markets, coffee shops, restaurants, movie theaters, popular department stores, famous brand shops, banks, post offices, and bookstores. Providing such convenience to our guests, KANAMEAN also maintains a traditional Japanese quiet environment. We invite you to share our peaceful atmosphere. KANAMEAN NISHITOMIYA warmly welcome our guests from the bottom of our heart.
