"I had the most wonderful stay in Kyoto at this charming hotel. It has the traditional Japanese feel, but doesn’t feel dated; they did a beautiful job with the interiors. Also I needed to send a bag to a residential address in Tokyo and since their partner only delivers to hotels, Julie went above and beyond to help me figure out the best way to do it on my own and she even filled the form in Japanese for me. I will most definitely be staying here again whenever I’m back in Kyoto."

Dhawa Yura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Conveniently located next to the subway station and in a great area of Gion and across the bridge from the arcade and picturesque streets. The hotel was immaculate, of course. Great beds, big room, friendly staff and a nice self service coffee bar in the lobby."

Hilton Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Spacious and clean room. Fantastic location. Highly recommend!"

KOKO HOTEL Kyoto Sanjo

8/10 Good

"Overall, I had a comfortable stay. However, the toilet was a bit of a nuisance. It had a persistent odor that refused to go away. Also, during my stay, the air conditioner started leaking water. The staff promptly fixed the issue and gave me a new room."

Shikikaboku

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was great, we appreciated all the small details. The soaking tubs on the roof were an addition we didn’t expect to love as much as we did. Breakfast was unique, but very good and satisfying. The rooms are nice and well equipped."

Eigetsu
