"Gift Cards Terms & Conditions

This card can be applied toward eligible purchases at participating Hyatt Hotels and Resorts in the U.S., Canada and Caribbean"

Don't believe they can be used outside of these locations per https://www.certificates.hyatt.com/TCGiftCardCert.aspx
so you wouldn't be able to use it in Kyoto anyway.
