The Westin Miyako Kyoto

The Westin Miyako Kyoto truly lives up to its reputation—excellent quality and service throughout. Located in eastern Kyoto, it’s just a short walk from Exit 2 of the Keihan Subway's Katsuyama Station, making access super convenient. One of the highlights is the on-site hot spring bath—definitely worth trying if you’re looking to unwind. My initial room was near the street and a bit noisy, but after speaking with the front desk, they quickly arranged a room change. Special thanks to Mr. Yamane and another staff member who looked like a young Hikaru Nakamura (I mean, a little like Hikaru Nakamura—just kidding!)—they were incredibly helpful and polite. The hotel also offers a direct shuttle to Kyoto Station, departing at 8:00 AM on weekends and holidays, and 9:00 AM on weekdays, with departures every hour at :10 and :40—only 25 minutes to the station, perfect for travelers. Daily housekeeping kept the room spotless, just as clean as when I first arrived, and they even included calming essential oils each day. Breakfast was outstanding—especially the homemade onigiri corner, where a cheerful lady made some of the most delicious rice balls I’ve ever had. It’s definitely worth waking up early for. Overall, this hotel delivers comfort, convenience, and genuine hospitality—highly recommended!

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

Absolutely fantastic! The room was huge and incredibly comfortable, with top-quality bedding that made for a restful night's sleep. I especially appreciated the built-in power outlets—no need to fumble for adapters, just plug in and go. The bathroom shower had excellent water pressure, and soaking in the tub was pure relaxation. Staff were genuinely warm and attentive—every interaction, from the shuttle driver to the front desk manager, felt sincere and welcoming. No coldness or preferential treatment at all. The only minor downside is the location: it’s not right next to a subway station or bus stop, so we relied on the hotel shuttle or walked about 10 minutes to reach transit. But honestly, the quiet neighborhood more than makes up for it—super peaceful and perfect for a good night’s sleep. If I ever come back to Kyoto, this will be my first choice again.

Hotel the Celestine Kyoto Gion

Staying at Hotel the Celestine Kyoto Gion was an absolute delight. The space is thoughtfully designed—removing shoes before entering the room gives it that authentic, serene feel, and the layout feels open and airy, with no cramped business hotel vibe. The rooms are spotlessly clean, and having windows that actually open makes a huge difference for fresh air and natural light. Breakfast stood out even among other high-end Japanese hotels—especially the popular tempura bar, where they serve freshly fried tempura daily with creative variations. It’s delicious and worth waking up early for. My favorite part? The lounge area in photo five—perfect for waiting for your shuttle. Coffee and tea are available throughout the day, and from 4 to 6 PM, there’s a nice selection of alcoholic drinks. Sipping a cold beer while watching the cityscape through the window? Pure relaxation. And this one red maple leaf 🍁? It’s honestly the only shot from my trip that I’m proud of. Would absolutely come back.

KYOTO TOKYU HOTEL

I couldn’t be happier with my stay at Kyoto Tokyu Hotel—this was truly one of the best experiences I’ve had in Japan. The room was prepared exactly to my request, which made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. The executive lounge was a highlight: offering a wide range of snacks, coffee, tea, and even alcoholic drinks, perfect for unwinding after a long day exploring Kyoto. Room amenities were top-notch—everything was well-maintained, quiet, and functioned smoothly. The only small downside? The hairdryer was a bit outdated and took longer than expected to dry my hair, but it’s a minor issue. What really stood out was the exceptional service—the front desk staff were warm and attentive, and the shuttle service was seamless and thoughtfully arranged. The hotel shuttle stops just behind Kyoto Station, near the Hachijo East Exit, making transfers super convenient. It runs from 8 AM to 8:30 PM, so you can easily get into and out of the city without stress. I highly recommend this hotel—especially if you value comfort, convenience, and genuine hospitality. Check out my last two photos—they speak volumes about how much I enjoyed this stay!

ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel Kyoto

This trip, I stayed at ANA Crowne Plaza hotels in Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe—without a doubt, the most relaxing was the one in Kyoto. While it’s not located right in the bustling heart of the city, that quiet, peaceful atmosphere is exactly what made it special. The hotel features a serene water feature, and from my room, I could enjoy views of Nijo Castle across the street—such a tranquil setting. Kyoto itself has a calming charm; the streets feel welcoming, unhurried, and full of character. It’s not just about the location—it’s the overall vibe. The staff were attentive, the room was comfortable, and the balance between comfort and calm made this stay truly memorable. Definitely my top pick among the three.

HOTEL SUI KYOTO KIYOMIZU

Stayed from December 14 to 16, 2025 — absolutely loved every moment! The hotel’s exterior is beautifully designed with a modern yet traditional Japanese touch, and the lobby space feels serene and thoughtfully crafted. Upon arrival, we dropped off our luggage and were warmly greeted by staff who made us feel right at home. The room was compact but well-organized and spotlessly clean — just the right size for a comfortable stay. I’m not a fan of soft beds, but the mattress and pillows were perfectly balanced in firmness, so I slept like a baby. What really stood out were the little extras: free matcha experience during designated hours, beer time, and even udon hour — such a charming way to unwind. We booked the complimentary airport transfer in advance and were picked up directly at Kyoto Station, saving us some money and hassle. The driver was friendly and professional throughout. On checkout day, there was a unique farewell ritual involving stone tapping — something symbolic for blessings on our journey. It felt meaningful and heartfelt, though I didn’t catch the exact name. There’s also a 24-hour convenience store right next door, plus another nearby, making late-night snacks or essentials super easy. Overall, this hotel offers exceptional value, attentive service, and that rare blend of comfort and cultural authenticity. If I ever come back to Kyoto, this will be my first choice.

Heian No Mori Kyoto

Staying at Heian No Mori Kyoto was an absolute delight! The atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, surrounded by lush greenery that makes you feel like you're in a quiet retreat right in the heart of the city. It's conveniently close to major attractions—just a short walk or quick transit ride away. Nearby, there's a charming rabbit shrine that’s perfect for photos and a nice cultural experience. Two bus stops are right outside the hotel, making getting around Kyoto super easy. The room itself was spacious, spotlessly clean, and very comfortable, with a great bed that made for a restful night's sleep. Even better, there's a supermarket just steps away—super convenient for grabbing snacks, drinks, or essentials without having to go far. Everything about this stay was excellent, from the location to the service. I’d definitely come back and recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto.

Momijiya Annex

Staying at Momijiya Annex in Kyoto was a truly serene experience. The traditional Japanese aesthetic shines through with its wooden interiors and authentic atmosphere—feels like stepping into a quiet mountain retreat. While the private onsen is a bit small, it adds to the intimate, cozy vibe. The wooden footbridge is absolutely stunning and offers breathtaking views of the surrounding forest, creating that peaceful, nature-filled ambiance with a real sense of calm and fresh air. The location is perfect for those who love being close to nature and want to disconnect from city life. Staff are friendly and attentive, though the meals are simple and somewhat basic—nothing special, so I’d recommend bringing snacks or heading out for a nice dinner nearby. Overall, this place delivers great value for the tranquility and charm it offers. If you're looking for a quiet, authentic Japanese stay with a focus on nature and simplicity, this is a must-try.

Momijiya Honkan Takaosansou

If you're looking for a peaceful retreat to unwind and recharge, this ryokan is an absolute gem. The serene atmosphere, combined with only three couples staying during our visit, made the place feel completely private and intimate—like we had it all to ourselves. The shared onsen was relaxing, but the private pool bath was a real highlight—perfect for unwinding under the stars. Meals were exceptional: dinner was thoughtfully prepared with fresh, local ingredients, and breakfast was equally delightful. They even accommodated our special dietary needs without any hassle. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. It's a short ride from Kyoto Station via bus, making it easy to access despite its quiet location. A truly memorable stay—definitely coming back.

Park Hyatt Kyoto

Staying at Park Hyatt Kyoto was an absolute highlight—serene yet perfectly positioned in the heart of Kyoto. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere was calm and elegant, a true oasis amidst the city. The room was cozy and thoughtfully designed, with luxurious bedding that made it hard to leave. The staff were incredibly warm and attentive, and I was so grateful for the multilingual team member who spoke fluent Chinese—she made check-in smooth and stress-free. Every detail felt just right: not too flashy, but full of quiet sophistication. Honestly, this place felt more comfortable than some other high-end hotels I’ve stayed at, and I already can’t wait to return. And the food? Don’t miss the on-site Western restaurant—while the Japanese dining experience is Michelin-worthy, their lobster pasta was a revelation. Rich, perfectly cooked, and bursting with flavor. It’s one of those meals you’ll remember long after you’ve left.
