Facilities Information
Our policy regarding our guests safety and security/Consideration for theEnvironment
Taking advantages of Mother Earth’s Blessings
We are making the best of Nature’s blessings, starting with its hot springs and groundwater.
Environmental-friendly and innovative approach
Besides introducing the use of solar panels, we are also taking steps towards reducing theenergy and water used at our hotel by actively implementing energy-saving equipment like
LED lightings, motion sensors, daylighting systems (in the shared toilets),

water-saving

faucets and sanitary fixings, etc.
A measured and creative approach for the buildings construction
Drawing upon the wisdom of Kyoto’s traditional houses (Machiya), we are using original
concepts to reduce the thermal load of our buildings; for instance by using traditional blinds
on the windows, Japanese sliding doors or multilayered glasses. Moreover, the inner courtyard
is also cleverly used to provide natural lighting and ventilation to the rest of the hotel.

Facilities and Equipment
Safety of the Buildings
The anti-seismic performances of our hotel are ensured by its earthquake-resistantconstruction designed to minimize structural deformation, thanks to an optimal use of a steel
and reinforced concrete blend in its frame.
Water Safety
・Natural groundwater is sent to our facilities after going through an advanced treatment(using membrane filtration and ion exchange systems) to ensure its safe use.
・Such water is stored inside elevated tanks and reservoirs, and can be distributed thanks toa co-generation system.
Electrical Safety
Emergency power generators can be used to provide the necessary electrical power for thelighting and elevator of the Hotel main areas, for as long as 24 hours.

Room Security
All rooms feature IC keycard systems. The same card can be used for the elevator but only
allows one to stop at the floor where their room is located, in order to prioritize the safety of
our single women guests.
Toilets Availability
The toilets located in each room (as well as the public ones) can be used even during a power
failure.
Air-conditioning system
The AC system featured in each room is designed to prevent the spread of microorganisms.
Bath water Safety
Only water that has been sterilized at 60℃ (140 °F) or more inside tanks (as a preventive
measure against Legionella) is used in the large baths of our natural hot springs.

Buildings Fire Safety
The Fire Safe Certification Mark (which apply to buildings witha capacity of 30 persons or more, and 3 stories or more) wasissued by the Kyoto city Fire Department to Kyoto Hot Spring
Hatoya Zuihokaku Hotel on October the 1st, 2014.
This certification mark was issued after the results of an
examination performed by the Fire Department (on the requestof the Hotel (and related facilities) managers) confirmed that thehotel was following the standards of the Fire Service Act andother important regulations regarding building construction.
A silver mark is issued for one year when it is recognized that abuilding complies to the standards of the Certification Mark afteran evaluation performed by members of the fire station. A golden mark is acquired by fulfilling
said standards for 3 consecutive years or more , which Kyoto Hot Spring Hatoya Zuihokaku
Hotel is doing since October 2017.

Information related to the buildings earthquake-resistant construction
Our buildings are designed with Safety and the Environment in mind.
By adopting a durable and flexible structure made of steel reinforced concrete (a blend of steel
and reinforced concrete), our buildings are ensured to display high anti-seismic performance.
All facilities feature LED lighting to reduce energy consumption, while the atrium in ourcentral building is used to provide natural lighting and ventilation to our environmentalfriendly hotel.
Energy Back-up Solutions
We have deployed a co-generation system that can be powered by gas, so that in the event ofa power outage, the supply of electricity remains available.
Water Storage Control
As a guaranteed amount of water is stored inside elevated tanks and reservoirs, pumps
operated thanks to the co-generation system will remain usable (to deliver water) even in
the event of a power outage as long as gas is available.
Power Supply
Electricity to power lightings and electrical outlets of all rooms indesigned areas of the Hotel can be supplied by generators (serving
each room as well as the elevator) for up to 4 hours in case ofemergency.
Elevator system
Our elevator is designed to guarantee safety by enabling
passengers to exit and reach a safer place ahead of an earthquake;it will automatically go and stop at the lowest floor right after the primary (and faster) pwaves are sensed, and before the secondary (and stronger) s-waves are felt.
