Top Saionji Temple Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Of the 4 hotels I booked in Japan, this is easily my favorite. So conveniently located, early check in, kind and helpful staff. Easy laundry machines and not the bad 2 in on1 machines. The separate machines take up more space, I understand, but they dry well. The 2 in 1 machines are horrible. So thank you. Luggage transfer was easy. Beautiful hotel, spacious room and nice bathroom. Will definitely book here again,"
