Garrya Nijo Castle Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely building near a scenic historic castle and located close to public transportation to go anywhere else you would like to in Kyoto. The staff is superb, they are endlessly friendly and helpful and I can’t thank them enough for their outstanding service. The restaurant is excellent, aside from the breakfast which I gladly enjoyed every morning I actually enjoyed the dinner so much I went twice during my stay. The restaurant staff in particular were fun and friendly on top of being prompt and efficient. My room was beautiful and the bed was excellent. All the other amenities you would expect are present and the daily housekeeping is both prompt and unobtrusive. Needless to say I greatly enjoyed my stay here and I would gladly do it again and recommend it to any friends who plan a Kyoto vacation."
