Top Shogoin Hotel Reviews

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Good location/very helpful staff and I loved the pajamas, which I tried on for a laugh then realized they were very comfortable. We had luggage sent there from Tokyo and it was waiting in the room when we arrived, and we also had the staff send our luggage back to Tokyo the day before we left. We called taxis using our Uber app and the lobby has a waiting area with decent seating where we could wait and then go outside right when the cab was coming. It was close to picturesque Pontoncho alley and not far from Teramachi covered shopping area (which can take you pretty much all the way to Nishiki Market, and nice bonus when it's rainy or you want some shade from the sun). Right next to the hotel is a vegetarian friendly, gluten-free friendly ramen place called Moon and Back. We first sought out the busy location at Nishiki Market, (researched by our vegetarian daughter) then two days later as we were leaving the hotel we noticed there was another branch literally right next to the front of the hotel and went one final time before we left Kyoto. It's nothing fancy, nor is it that traditional, but when you have one vegetarian in your group it's a nice option; I enjoyed the wagyu beef ramen which they finish it at your table with a blowtorch. My other daughter liked using hotel's public bath, which is segregated for women and men."

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely stay at the Kyoto Brighton Hotel. Located north of the main city center, it offers a wonderful, quieter escape, though you should expect to take a taxi to get to the main train station and most major sightseeing hubs. For us, the location's unique perks far outweighed the distance: Historic Walkability: Nijo Castle (Kyoto Castle) is well within walking distance and made for a fantastic, highly enjoyable excursion. Local Neighborhood Vibe: We absolutely loved walking around the immediate neighborhood. It feels authentic and local, yet remains incredibly convenient. Within a short walk, we found a great grocery store, several 7-Eleven locations, and a very handy coin-operated laundry. The Best Part: The hotel is an easy, beautiful walk to the expansive Kyoto Imperial Palace park grounds. One minor downside to note: Be careful with your physical room keys! The hotel will charge you a fee if you lose them or if you want to keep one as a souvenir. Overall, if you don't mind relying on taxis to venture further out, the Brighton offers a peaceful, authentic, and highly comfortable base for exploring Kyoto."

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel rooms were spacious, clean and well stocked. The staff were incredibly polite and helpful, and the breakfast options were good too. It’s worth bearing in mind that the rooms were not serviced every day, as part of their hotel policy; but the service was available on request. Lovely Onsen too!"
