Each unit is equipped with a kitchenette, and the site is located a ten-minute walk from Karasuma Station.
On the other hand, the Oaks Vacation Club Kyoto Gojo features 20 guest rooms, ranging from standard double units to a Japanese-style suite.
The hotel property is situated an eight-minute walk from Shijo Station and one block from the city’s Nishiki Market.
The dual openings represent the entry of the Oaks brand into the Japanese market.
The additions also increase Minor Hotels’ operational footprint in the regional hospitality sector.
Minor International Group CEO Dillip Rajakarier said: “Kyoto draws travellers who want to explore at their own pace, and the Oaks brand is built for that.
“Spaces suitable for families, couples and solo travellers and central addresses give guests the freedom to wander a traditional market, try a local speciality or turn down an unfamiliar street.
“Entering Japan with two properties in Kyoto is a strong start for the Oaks brand.”
Minor International is the parent company of Minor Hotels. Oaks Hotels, Resorts & Suites currently manages a portfolio of more than 60 properties across Australia, New Zealand, China, Japan, and the Middle East, with further developments in the pipeline.
