Yumi provided the finest massage I have experienced in Japan. She was patient and enthusiastic, spoke excellent English, and took her time ensuring I felt thoroughly relaxed. I would suggest the 90-minute deep tissue massage; it is highly worthwhile.

This was my first time in Japan and I was in need of a massage from all the walking. I immediately looked up a massage spa in I read great reviews so I had to book. My massage therapist was Aya and she did an AMAZING job. I highly recommend this spa for anyone coming to Kyoto. Thank you so much Aya, you are great and wish you many blessings.

An absolute hidden gem in Kyoto! Far superior to any overpriced hotel spa. The team at Kartena provides deeply professional, thoughtful care, perfectly blending traditional Japanese bodywork and Shiatsu techniques with customized aromatherapy. It was exactly what my travel-weary body needed for a complete reset. Highly recommended for any traveler looking for genuine, high-quality restoration!"

We had a truly exceptional massage experience at Kartena Kyoto! Natsu and Manami providing amazing service, making sure to approach our massages with care and thoughtfulness. The location was easy to find, peaceful, and welcoming. We did 90 minute massages with added facial treatments and left feeling completely refreshed after several days of sightseeing in Kyoto. I highly recommend a visit, and look forward to stopping by again when we’re back in Japan!

Manami provided the exact balance between relaxation and the deep tissue massage. She was tuned into areas that needed more work and I really enjoyed my 90 minutes with her. The experience felt very personalized. I will absolutely come back when in Kyoto.

Absolutely incredible experience! Very nice set up, incredibly well designed and relaxing. My wife and I booked a couples massage and it was very relaxing and helped take away the soreness from walking around Kyoto. Highly recommend!
