Top Kounji Temple Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel's traditional décor is truly impressive. There are various hot spring options to enjoy. The massage chairs are well worth the wait, and the complimentary drinks, ice cream, and ramen are all of good quality. The breakfast offers excellent value for money, and the rooms are spacious, clean, and well maintained."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in several hotels throughout our two week Japan trip, and this hotel (and Kyoto in general) was by far our favorite. It is spotlessly clean and classy. The lofi-jazz playing in the hotel as well as the rooftop lounge was a nice touch. The breakfast every morning was wonderful, and the staff were friendly and helpful. This hotel is walking distance to most of the Gion sites such as Yasaka Pagoda, Kiyomizu-dera Temple and a short taxi or subway ride from Yasaka Temple, Nishiki Market, Fushimi Inari (amazing) and so many other things to do. I would stay again at this hotel in a heartbeat! We’ll be back the next time we’re in Kyoto."

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were great! Bigger than other similar rooms (in my experience), the buffet was very nice and worth the cost, and the staff were extremely helpful. Doing laundry was challenging - they only had three machines and a lot of people were trying to do laundry. Eventually got a load in and it wasn’t fully dry when finished. Not a big deal, just something to note. Locations is amazing and nearly everything was within walking distance. Would absolutely recommend it to anyone."

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at The Hotel Higashiyama Kyoto Tokyu! The room was very nice and comfortable, and the bathroom was absolutely fantastic. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The hotel is in a great location for exploring Kyoto, and we also really enjoyed the restaurant and bar, which were both excellent. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely recommend this hotel!"

Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in Kyoto. Beautiful property. Looks brand new. Staff were extremely attentive. Gardens on the property were gorgeous. Rooms were beautiful, clean, and Modern/Japanese. Only the gym was a little underwhelming with minimal equipment. Would definitely stay here again."
