1. The Hotel Seiryu Kyoto Kiyomizu

    A Forbes four-star hotel tucked into the Higashiyama hills, built inside a converted elementary school, which sounds like a quirky gimmick until you see the views over Kyoto's rooftops and realize you're staying somewhere genuinely special. The bones of the old building are still very much there, but the rooms are quiet and refined, and Kiyomizudera is practically at the end of the street. Guests tend to be the kind who did their research.
