Guidance in Kyoto style from SOU・SOU
OMO by Hoshino Resort
Represented by the renowned hotel “HOSHINOYA,” Hoshino Resorts operates accommodation facilities and day-trip destinations both in Japan and overseas. Among its brands, “OMO” is a hotel series developed around the concept of “lively city-center hotels that lift your spirits.”
The uniforms for the guide staff at the three OMO hotels in Kyoto were created by SOU・SOU. Guide staff members are hotel employees who become “Neighborhood Guide OMO Rangers” and lead tours around the surrounding areas exclusively for hotel guests.
SOU・SOU designed the uniforms and bags specifically for OMO, with each of the three hotels featuring a different color scheme. We visited the hotels in person and learned about the highlights of each property and their guided tours from the guides wearing SOU・SOU’s Kyoto-style outfits!
