Umekoji Potel Kyoto
This was my second stay at this hotel, and honestly, it’s easily the most spacious room I’ve ever experienced in Japan. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt calm and luxurious. The exterior design is sleek and modern, giving off a very refined vibe. One of the highlights? A dedicated free onsen area with multiple baths, including massage jets—perfect for unwinding after a long day. There’s also a complimentary drink and snack lounge, plus a quiet music appreciation room where I just sat and relaxed with some tunes. My room’s balcony offered stunning views—nighttime moonlight scenes and morning sunrises over the cityscape were absolutely peaceful. The on-site restaurant serves excellent food, though prices are a bit on the higher side. Still, if they could adjust pricing slightly, it would be even more appealing. Location-wise, it’s incredibly convenient—just a short walk or quick taxi ride from Kyoto Station. Overall, an unforgettable experience with great value, and I’d definitely come back.
The GrandWest Arashiyama
Staying at The GrandWest Arashiyama was hands down the best part of my 7-day trip to Kyoto! I couldn’t be more satisfied—this place truly stood out in comfort, space, and vibe. While it’s a bit farther from the JR station (a 10-minute taxi ride), it’s super close to Hankyu Arashiyama Station, making it easy to reach on foot. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet, especially at night—no noise, no crowds, just fresh air and cool mountain breeze. The hotel itself is spotless, modern, and well-maintained. I loved that we could rent bikes right on-site—perfect for exploring nearby attractions like the iconic Togetsukyo Bridge, the bamboo grove, and Tenryu-ji Temple without needing to rely on transport. Oh, and the day-use onsen? Only ¥65 per person, and it’s worth every yen—especially with its serene outdoor courtyard. Two restaurants stand out: one requires advance booking, and the other, Kijūrō’s beef bowl, was absolutely delicious—rich, savory, and perfectly cooked. I’ll definitely come back here whenever I visit Kyoto again.
Floral Green Maple House
Staying at Floral Green Maple House in Kyoto was an absolute delight! The room was immaculately clean and surprisingly well-equipped—complete with a washing machine, stove, microwave, and even a dryer right in the bathroom. I loved being able to wash and dry my clothes on-site; it felt so convenient and homely. The staff were incredibly attentive and genuinely warm throughout the entire stay. I accidentally left my headphones behind, and instead of just waiting for me to notice, they reached out immediately and arranged to send them back to Tokyo—such a thoughtful gesture! It really made the experience stand out. Located right near Shijo Kawaramachi, everything is within walking distance, and the overall vibe is cozy yet modern. This place offers incredible value and service that feels personal and genuine. I’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto.
The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Umekoji
Staying at The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Umekoji was an absolute delight. Located right within Umekoji Park, the hotel is just steps from the train station—making travel around Kyoto incredibly convenient. A short walk takes you to the aquarium and the Railway Museum, both perfect for exploring without needing a car. The hotel itself has a warm, inviting atmosphere with clean, well-maintained rooms and cozy furnishings. I especially loved the on-site hot spring bath—perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. During winter, there’s even a seasonal ice rink nearby, and the surrounding area turns into a charming Christmas market with festive lights and holiday vibes. It truly feels like stepping into a winter wonderland. The location, comfort, and unique seasonal touches make this stay unforgettable. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Kyoto.
Urban Hotel Kyoto Nijo Premium
This hotel is an absolute gem for travelers looking for comfort and convenience. The location is fantastic—just a short walk from Nijo Castle, a major UNESCO site, and steps away from a large local supermarket, pharmacy, and the neighborhood shopping complex BIV. I felt very safe even returning late at night since the hotel sits right next to a main road with good visibility. The free public bathhouse was a real highlight—clean, relaxing, and well-maintained. They even provide complimentary pajamas and extra toiletries like makeup remover and cotton pads, which shows great attention to detail. The lunch buffet was impressive, especially the homemade tofu—it was fresh, flavorful, and offered excellent value. The coin laundry machine runs at just 400 yen per cycle, making it affordable and convenient for longer stays. Overall, this place delivers on every front: comfort, cleanliness, location, and thoughtful touches. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Kyoto.
Moxy Kyoto
Staying at Moxy Kyoto was an absolutely fantastic experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a welcome drink and even got to choose from a signature cocktail—such a nice touch that made us feel right at home. The room design is sleek and modern, with a standout feature being the spacious shower-only bathroom setup, which felt both practical and luxurious. Located just steps from JR Nijo Station, getting around was incredibly convenient—we took the subway to Shijo for dining and shopping, and the JR line made trips to Kyoto Station, Nara, and Arashiyama super easy. Plus, there’s a well-known yakiniku restaurant right around the corner, perfect for a delicious post-check-in meal. While it’s slightly quieter than the bustling Shijo area, this hotel strikes the perfect balance between tranquility and accessibility. It’s ideal for travelers who value location, comfort, and a vibrant urban vibe without the chaos. Definitely recommend this gem if you're looking for a smart, stylish base in Kyoto.
Hotel And Spa Kyoto Eminence
This stay at Hotel And Spa Kyoto Eminence was absolutely wonderful. The location is perfect—just a short walk from Jigoku-dani and Saikyo-ji Temple, with the convenient 80 bus stopping right nearby, making exploration effortless. While the staff are a bit older in age, their warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism more than made up for it. Every interaction felt genuine and caring. The room was spotless and cozy, and the onsen bath was serene and relaxing—exactly what I needed after a busy day exploring Kyoto. It’s rare to find such a peaceful retreat with such high service standards. Highly recommend this hidden gem for anyone seeking comfort, culture, and tranquility in the heart of Kyoto.
Kyo Ryokan Gekkou-an
Everything about our stay was absolutely perfect—from the moment we arrived to the last goodbye. The real magic came from Shin and Shohei, who embody Japanese hospitality in every way. From a seamless check-in process to answering every question with warmth and patience, they went above and beyond. They even helped plan a custom itinerary complete with Google Maps, arranged a private matcha tea ceremony, secured fantastic dinner reservations, and ensured everything was spotless and welcoming. No request was too small, and their kindness made us feel like family. The ryokan itself is stunning—a beautifully restored traditional Kyoto townhouse with modern comforts seamlessly integrated. We especially loved our private Zen garden and the onsen tub, which offered the perfect retreat after exploring the city. The beds were spacious and incredibly comfortable—sleeping like babies all night long. If you're planning a trip to Kyoto, look no further. This is hands down the best experience we’ve had, and we can’t recommend it enough.

Staying at Hotel Emion Kyoto was one of the highlights of my trip to Kyoto. Located just a 2-minute walk from Kyoto Station—only one stop on the train—it’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The room was much larger than I expected, with a comfortable bed and plenty of space to move around even with luggage unpacked. The bathroom features a full-sized bathtub and excellent hot water, making it perfect for a relaxing soak after a long day of sightseeing. What truly sets this hotel apart is its public bathhouse, complete with a hot spring pool, sauna, and wellness area. Coming back tired from a day out, soaking in the warm waters was pure bliss. On-site dining options and convenience stores make meals and snacks super easy. Even the smallest details show thoughtfulness—the bathroom has dual sinks, a separate toilet area, a small faucet, and a hand towel, giving a high-end, spa-like feel. If you value cleanliness, comfort, and location, this hotel is absolutely worth considering. It’s not just a place to sleep—it’s a true retreat in the heart of Kyoto.
