Thanks so much—magical is an apt description, indeed. I was sorry to finish composing the review, actually.
I would love to hear how a “regular” guest feels about this place, though I’d imagine that most will fall in love with Arashiyama much as we did. My Ambassador status was just icing on the cake, I think. If you go, definitely book Boruta for teppanyaki dinner and Kitcho for kaiseki!
Also: yours is *definitely* the second closet. DEFINITELY.

Was it the short sleeves, cool shoes, or assumed Zegna labels that gave me away?
