"The hotel was in a peaceful location of Kyoto very close to the Philosophers path and surrounding temples. The roof terrace and complimentary happy hour drinks was a wonderful edition at the end of long day of sight seeing to soak up the views and relax. The breakfast was excellent - a perfect balance of fresh vegetables, baked bread and fruit and yogurt. And the staff were so helpful with local restaurant recommendations. Would definately recommend"

Top Yasaka Shrine Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"Pros: - The rooms were spacious compared to most Japanese hotel rooms. It was nice to have a more traditional tatami style room. - The breakfast buffet had an incredible selection to choose from. There’s a bit of a wait depending on when you go, but it goes rather quickly. - Late night unlimited ramen from 9pm-11pm was also a nice touch. We loved being able to eat a light meal after a long day of exploring. - Onsen access is really nice, with massage chairs available for use. And unlimited ice cream every night was also really delicious. Cons: - Having guests take off their shoes at the lobby makes the place smell like feet. It’s pretty gross since it was raining when we were there so it was a mix of wet socks and feet stench. They should at least require that people wear hotel rooms slippers. - The onsen was really dirty from the amount of people that would use the facilities. It was overcrowded and packed during the night time. Overall, I’d stay at this hotel again, but refrain from using public facilities. It’s almost impossible to keep the public areas clean and free of smells since there are so many guests."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great stay at this hotel. Everything was clean, the staff were thoughtful and helpful and our needs were met. I want to share that the hotel smells great! I saw some recent reviews that there was a bad odor coming from the hotel. If this was a recent problem, it's been addressed. As of mid-October, everything looked new and smelled great."

Kyoto Granbell Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I was not expecting the eco hotel approach that greeted us and we were a little confused at first by the do-it-yourself approach to room cleaning etc but the staff were helpful and the system did work - reducing the burden of unnecessary cleaning or waste. The public onsen was lovely too - a real bonus plus an excellent location. The rooms were small but not noisy and had everything you needed right in the heart of Kyoto."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Loved how central this house was. The hotel itself is super chic and modern. Breakfast downstairs in the main room is delicious. The rooms are spacious for being Japan hotel. I’d stay here all over agai ."

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Great Hotel! Very clean the staff is very polite and helpful. Great location close to restaurant, shopping store's you name it."

Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay overall 5/5! Room was modern and very nice with a TV that was easy to use in English and link stream account."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing!"

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in an excellent location. You can walk to amazing restaurants, shops and the local streets are beautiful. It’s really easy to get around from here. I would recommend this hotel to other travelers. However I did not find the reception staff very helpful. I wanted advice on day trips, booking a private car and booking a restaurant and they wouldn’t help me or were very reluctant to help. Booking various things on websites and via phone can be very difficult when you don’t speak Japanese. In addition the rooms are provided with fresh towels each day but the beds are not made. However the beds are very comfortable after a long day out!"
