Top Katsura Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"10/10."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We loved everything! When we arrived it was peak check-in time but the front desk staff were plentiful and checked everyone in quickly, which was impressive! Super friendly and attentive staff throughout the hotel (bar, restaurant, housekeeping and as mentioned front desk staff). The room (jr suite) was decorated tastefully and the sound system was a nice surprise old school tube and horn system!"

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"Great distance from the station and mall. The room was spacious and very clean. You can even leave your suitcase before and after you have checked in or out. Loved the spa which is included in the amenities. They also have a breakfast buffet available. It was a great place to stay at in Kyoto."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Second time in the hotel , even we asked to be upgraded they offered just with extra charge . Breakfast doesn’t have the variety I would expect including lack of western products and vegetables . Service is good in general and location excellent . Room size is not too big for superior double All together price wise is reasonable"

Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

10/10 Excellent

"This place was fantastic, we stayed during Silver Week, which meant the hotel was full, however we never once felt crowded. The only thing lacking was a laundry service, however there is a laundromat 600m away. The closeness to the station which is only one stop from Kyoto was really convenient. Looking forward to coming back."
