Staying at Hotel Okura Kyoto felt like stepping into a timeless Japanese elegance. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the station and surrounded by temples and local charm. While some areas show their age, everything is impeccably maintained, reflecting the hotel’s storied past. The bedding was exceptional, with authentic buckwheat pillows that made for a truly restful night. Staff went above and beyond with warm, thoughtful service—always attentive without being intrusive. I especially loved the grand lobby adorned with festive Christmas decorations, creating a cozy, joyful atmosphere. The café on the first floor offers a delightful spot to enjoy pastries while watching the world go by; it’s popular with well-dressed older guests who clearly appreciate quiet moments of luxury. This isn’t just a place to stay—it’s an experience. For anyone seeking authenticity, comfort, and a touch of old-world grace in Kyoto, this hotel delivers perfectly.

Staying at The Prince Kyoto Takaragaike, Autograph Collection was an absolute delight. The atmosphere is wonderfully serene and peaceful—every corner of the hotel feels thoughtfully designed and impeccably clean. I especially appreciated the breakfast spread: fresh, flavorful Japanese dishes like silky miso soup and perfectly grilled fish made my mornings truly special. The location is fantastic—just a short walk to nearby temples and excellent access to subway lines for exploring other parts of Kyoto. The quiet, cozy ambiance made it feel like a true retreat from the city’s hustle. It's rare to find such comfort, convenience, and charm all in one place. This isn’t just a hotel—it’s a memorable experience. I’ll definitely be back.

Staying at Hotel Granvia Kyoto was an absolute delight. The location is unbeatable—right on the second floor of Kyoto Station, so stepping off the train and walking straight into the hotel is incredibly convenient. Our room was spacious with a sleek business-inspired design, and the view from the window was stunning at night—lights along the railway tracks stretching out in front of us, and I believe we could also see Kyoto Tower from the other side. The pool requires a fee, but it's not a dealbreaker given how great everything else is. What truly stood out was the service when I realized my son had left his watch behind upon check-out. After contacting the platform, the hotel promptly located it, carefully wrapped, and even placed it in a reusable bag for easy pickup. This level of attention to detail and care made our stay unforgettable. I’ll definitely be back.

Coming back to Kyoto was a joy, and without hesitation I booked this hotel again—truly one of the best stays I’ve had in the city. The location is unbeatable: right across the street from Kyoto Station, making train travel effortless. From Kansai Airport, the JR Haruka Express gets you here in just 1.5 hours—fast, comfortable, and stress-free. Inside the hotel, the amenities are top-notch: a cozy lounge with complimentary drinks, a spacious onsen-style bath perfect for unwinding after a long day of exploring, and rooms that are both clean and generously sized. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and every detail—from the lighting to the bathroom design—feels thoughtfully curated. It’s rare to find such a high level of comfort and convenience at this price point. If you're visiting Kyoto, this hotel is a must-book. I’ll definitely be returning.

Staying at Karasuma Kyoto Hotel was a fantastic experience, especially given how close it is to the subway station—getting around Kyoto couldn’t be easier, even with heavy luggage. I stayed over a weekend, so prices were on the higher side, but honestly, the room’s size and quality made it totally worth it. This isn’t just a standard hotel room—it’s spacious, thoughtfully laid out, and feels more like a cozy apartment than a typical city stay. The space is genuinely impressive, and I regret not taking a full-room photo because it truly deserves one. In the heart of the four-roads area, this place stands out for its comfort and practicality. If you’re looking for value, convenience, and a room that actually gives you breathing room, this is a top pick. I’ll definitely be back.

Staying at Six Senses Kyoto was an absolute highlight of my trip to Japan. From the moment I walked in, the warm and thoughtful Japanese hospitality stood out—staff were polite, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being overbearing. The hotel itself feels fresh and modern, with a strong emphasis on sustainability woven into every detail, from the food and drinks to the design. I couldn’t book the spa (it’s famously popular), but the on-site hot spring was a wonderful alternative—perfect for unwinding after a long day. The omakase restaurant downstairs was an unforgettable experience; watching the chef craft each piece of sushi with such precision and care felt like art in motion. Even though I had the place mostly to myself during dinner and drinks at the bar, service remained impeccable and personal. Breakfast was a half-self-service spread—I enjoyed the Western-style options, though the omelette could’ve been fluffier. The Japanese rice was excellent, and while other dishes were just average, the welcome fruits and little pastries added a sweet touch, even if they didn’t quite hit the mark flavor-wise. A small disappointment: no welcome champagne, but that’s just a minor note in what was otherwise a flawless stay. If you’re looking for a serene, eco-conscious retreat with exceptional service and culinary charm, this is it.

The location is excellent—just a short walk from Kyoto Station, making it super convenient for exploring the city and getting around by train. The hotel is spotlessly clean with all the essentials you’d expect, and the room amenities are well thought out. The only minor downside is that the two beds are placed side by side, which might not be ideal if you prefer more space between sleeping areas. One thing to note: after booking online, there’s an additional tax to pay upon check-in—I initially thought it was a deposit and even asked the front desk for a refund at checkout, only to get a confused look in return! Lesson learned. Also, if you want housekeeping service, make sure to place a sign outside your door—unlike some hotels back home, they don’t automatically assume cleaning is needed. Overall, this is a great stay with strong value for money, especially given the central location and clean, modern rooms. I’d definitely recommend it.

Absolutely loved my stay! The hotel is perfectly located right next to major attractions, making it super convenient to explore Kyoto's top sights without needing to travel far. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with modern amenities. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere and the thoughtful touches that made the experience feel personal. Being just steps away from local charm and culture made the whole trip even more memorable. Highly recommend this spot for travelers who want a peaceful retreat while staying in the heart of the action.

Staying at Kamo Residences by Reflections felt like coming home—warm, inviting, and full of thoughtful touches that made our trip unforgettable. Every detail, from the quiet garden nook on the first floor with its subtle fragrance to the serene view of the Kamo River just outside, created a peaceful retreat. The fresh air and natural beauty were invigorating—every breath felt like recharging your soul. The platform’s VIP group was incredibly helpful, offering personalized recommendations for restaurants and local spots we wouldn’t have found otherwise. It’s rare to find such comfort, charm, and genuine hospitality in one place. If we ever return to Kyoto, this will be our first choice again.

Staying here for three nights was an absolute delight! The hotel is incredibly clean and well-maintained, with a warm, authentic Japanese atmosphere that made us feel right at home. The breakfast was a standout—each morning brought a slightly different selection, keeping things fresh and enjoyable. I especially appreciated the friendly and attentive staff at the front desk; two of the ladies were genuinely helpful and went out of their way to assist us with any concerns. Their kindness truly enhanced our experience. Located just a short walk from major attractions like Gion and Fushimi Inari, it’s super convenient for exploring Kyoto. This place offers excellent value and comfort—definitely a top pick for anyone visiting the city.

Staying at The Machiya Kazahaya was an absolute delight! This charming, standalone machiya-style house is a true gem—compact yet spacious, with six rooms across two floors. We were on the second floor, which included two private rooms, a fully equipped kitchen (stove, microwave, cookware), and a well-designed bathroom split into three zones: toilet, shower with a bathtub, and sink—all very practical. The entrance room had a long table with a TV and a cozy sofa area that could easily sleep multiple people, while the other room featured a large tatami mat with two sets of bedding—perfect for four guests. The sliding doors provided good privacy between spaces. The entire place was spotlessly clean and secure, with a simple password entry system. It’s just a 10–15 minute walk to four subway stations, making it super convenient for exploring Kyoto. Ideal for families or groups of friends looking for comfort, convenience, and authentic local charm without breaking the bank.

Staying at Rinn Premium Kunpu was an absolute delight from start to finish. The property is part of a trusted chain, and the renovation truly shines—modern touches blend seamlessly with traditional Kyoto charm, echoing the serene aesthetic of the nearby Shōhō-ji Temple. The private onsen-style bath in the courtyard garden was a highlight, especially for my kids who loved soaking in the tranquil space. The bedding was incredibly comfortable, and after a long day of exploring, a warm soak before bed was the perfect way to unwind. It’s just a 10-minute walk to Kyoto Station, and waking up to the gentle chimes of the temple bell outside the window added a peaceful, meditative start to each morning. I’ll definitely be returning to this gem on my next trip to Kyoto—authentic, calming, and effortlessly elegant.
