Top Pontocho Alley Hotel Reviews

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"My favorite place we stayed in Kyoto. Bakery in the lobby, great vibes on the rooftop bar, incredible service and awesome location"

Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Really enjoy my stay. Room was clean. Always staff member at front desk incase need assistance. No machine to check in or out instead actual human, I'm old school so truly appreciate that. Outstanding breakfast available for a fair price. There is laundry machine, unfortunately only one washer and one dryer. Overall worth the stay. Aloha!"

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"The location was great. It’s just a short walk from Sanjo Station, with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. All of the staff were helpful. I stayed in a basement room with a small garden view, which made the room feel really peaceful and relaxing. There’s also an onsen in the basement, so it was nice to soak in the bath after walking around all day in the heat. I also liked being able to grab drinks from the vending machines and then head back to my room to relax. The only downside was that one of the beds squeaked whenever I moved (the other bed was perfectly fine). I wish I’d asked the staff to replace it, because it woke me up a few times during the night."

Hotel Monterey Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Room was great for me and my two kids. Great location. Easy to walk to most places and only a block or two from the subway. My worst complaint about the property was that the shower wasn’t that great. Clean tub but shower ck and under. My daughter however really Staff were always helpful when I had inquires. The spa experience was very unique and wished I had more time to enjoy it. Would recommend to others to take time to enjoy it. I"

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in the Japanese suite which more than comfortable for four adults (parents and 2 adult children) in addition to being a beautiful traditional room. The hotel is exceptionally well located. The buffet breakfast had an excellent selection of offerings. My one complaint would be the hours for the restaurant and bar. It would be nice if it was open at night to allow for a cocktail after returning. I would 100% return again."
