Overview
XIV Kyoto Yase Rikyu (エクシブ京都八瀬離宮) is a members-only resort hotel located in Yase-Nose-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto, Japan. It opened in November 2006 on the site of the former Mori no Yuenchi amusement park, which closed in 2001. The property is part of the XIV (Ekusibu) brand of membership resort hotels operated by the Resorttrust Group, a major Japanese hospitality company. As a members-only facility, access to accommodation and many services is tied to Resorttrust membership programs, including the RTTG Points Club and corporate memberships. The hotel offers guest rooms, restaurants and bars, breakfast service, wedding facilities, and various ancillary amenities, and it is promoted through the Resorttrust Group's integrated reservation platform. Its location in the Yase area of Kyoto places it near the city's northern mountain scenery and cultural sites, and the site itself has a local history as a former excursion destination for students before the amusement park's closure. The hotel is marketed alongside other Resorttrust properties such as golf courses and cruise clubs, reflecting the group's diversified resort and leisure portfolio. The official website provides information on room availability, reservations, dining, facilities, and access, and serves both individual and corporate members. The brand is positioned within the premium membership resort segment in Japan, leveraging Kyoto's tourism appeal and the exclusivity of the XIV membership model.
History
XIV Kyoto Yase Rikyu opened in November 2006 in Yase-Nose-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto. The site was previously occupied by Mori no Yuenchi, an amusement park operated by Eizan Electric Railway that closed in 2001. The park had been a popular destination for school excursions. After its closure, the land was redeveloped by the Resorttrust Group into a members-only resort hotel under the XIV (Ekusibu) brand. The hotel has since operated as part of Resorttrust's portfolio of membership resorts, offering accommodation, dining, and event facilities to members. Its official website is integrated into the Resorttrust Group's service platform, allowing members to check availability and make reservations through the RTTG reservation system.
