HOSHINOYA Kyoto
I'm from Yangzhou, Jiangsu—where gardens are part of daily life and the surrounding region is full of tranquil retreat-style hotels. But HOSHINOYA Kyoto by Shinya Group stands out as a must-stay experience. The cleanliness was excellent, with well-maintained facilities and zero musty smells—very reassuring. One tiny note: the windows could use a little more attention when it comes to polishing. We arrived in the late afternoon, and on the way from the taxi drop-off point, we caught a breathtaking view of Arashiyama's sunset—pure serendipity. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming; one lady even drove us personally to the entrance in a small car, navigating narrow mountain roads with skill and grace—felt like a mini adventure. And when it came time to check out, we experienced their signature boat transfer service, which added such a memorable touch. Also worth mentioning: the nearby Yosai Tea House (Yuzen Tsubaki) across the street—perfect for those who appreciate scenic views and traditional ambiance. A truly special stay.
Togetsutei
Staying at Togetsutei right next to the iconic Togetsukyo Bridge in Arashiyama was an absolute highlight of my trip to Kyoto. While not inexpensive, the value truly shines through in every detail. The staff went above and beyond with their warm, attentive service—always smiling, always ready to help. Breakfast was a standout: beautifully set in a serene atmosphere with a great variety of fresh, authentic Japanese dishes, including local specialties I’d never tried before. The room itself was much larger than expected, with thoughtful design, comfortable bedding, and plenty of space to relax. Easy access to public transit made exploring nearby temples and trails convenient. Overall, this was a perfect blend of tradition, comfort, and quality—highly recommend for anyone seeking a memorable, peaceful stay in Kyoto.
La'gent Hotel Kyoto Nijo
Staying at La'gent Hotel Kyoto Nijo was an absolutely delightful experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I could feel the authentic essence of Kyoto—elegant, serene, and deeply rooted in Japanese tradition, with subtle touches inspired by the Manyōshū that added a poetic charm. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from major attractions and well-connected by public transit, making it easy to explore the city. Breakfast was exceptional: fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared with local flavors that truly captured the spirit of Kyoto. My room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and beautifully designed with modern comfort blended seamlessly with traditional aesthetics. But what really stood out was the on-site hot spring bath—perfect for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. It’s rare to find such a peaceful retreat in the heart of the city. Overall, this hotel offers incredible value and a memorable stay. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto.
Hotel Ecclesia
We stayed here as a family of four—two adults and two middle schoolers. The room was surprisingly spacious, easily fitting two single beds and three floor mats with plenty of room to move around. Even the kids said they felt comfortable. Location-wise, it's super convenient—just a short walk from both the Nijo Station (JR) and the Nijo Station (Subway). If you're taking the subway, note that Exit 3 doesn’t have an elevator, so we’d recommend using Exit 2 if you’re carrying heavy luggage. Right next to Exit 3 is a small convenience store that has evening discounts—perfect for grabbing snacks or essentials. One thing to keep in mind: no toothbrushes are provided, so bring your own or pick one up at the nearby store (usually cheaper than hotel prices). Cleaning services are extra, but towels are replaced regularly and trash is taken out daily. Overall, the experience was excellent—great value for money, clean, well-located, and very family-friendly.

Plus, there are so many great dining options nearby, making it easy to explore local flavors without traveling far.

With such comfort, excellent value, and unbeatable convenience, this hotel is definitely a top choice for my next trip to the city.

Overall, the value for money is excellent, especially considering how central the hotel is. I’d definitely stay here again if visiting Kyoto again.
