Top Kyoto University Museum Hotel Reviews

Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Location and suite were perfect. Exactly what we were hoping for. This trip was for my birthday and I mentioned that in the check in confirmation but when I got to the hotel there wasn’t any acknowledgement so it was a bit of a let down. But overall the hotel is great and we would stay again."

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"Very good stay"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

8/10 Good

"This hotel was mainly for the location, and the location is awesome for shopping. The room and hotel itself were okay. The rooms are a little outdated, and the beds had a few minor stains on the blankets, nothing that was terrible (all of our group had some kind of stain on the blankets in every room) but definitely made an impact on our visit to the hotel. The premium lounge is awesome, but located directly next to a smoking area, and was often just filled with smoke, which made it so we never went. Again the location is 100% worth it, and if you just want to use it as we did as a place to sleep while shopping in Kyoto, then its awesome."

Hearton Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Good breakfast and amenities"

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent
