The location is superb as it is close to scenic spots and large department stores. Good restaurants are available in walking distance. The staff was nice and the hot spring is spectacular. The sky lounge is like a heaven. Recommended!

Everything is perfect except for the room is filled with grilled teriyaki sauce when we came back to the hotel in the evening, cause we left the window opens for ventilation.

Very good location, everything is nearby! A lot of restaurants around:) The hotel provided a free evening cocktail at the rooftop bar, the view is epic! However, the room is a bit small (as usual in Japan), and breakfast is the same every day, a bit disappointing. Apart from that, overall is good!

Response from Property: Thank you for choosing Soraniwa Terrace Kyoto. We're glad you enjoyed the convenient location and nearby restaurants. It's nice to hear that you appreciated the complimentary evening cocktail and the rooftop view. We understand that the room size may feel small and appreciate your understanding. We also value your feedback about breakfast and will consider it for future improvements. We hope to welcome you back in the future.Mat, Receptionist

We recently spent 4 nights here and had a great experience overall. The check-in process was smooth and hassle-free. The hotel's central location is very convenient, providing easy access to Kyoto's popular attractions. Although the room is a bit small, it’s was very comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. One of the standout features of this hotel is its stunning rooftop terrace overlooking the city, which was our favorite spot to unwind and relax at the end of each day. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and highly recommend Sora Niwa Terrace Kyoto to anyone visiting this beautiful city.

2nd times to stay in Sora Niwa Terrace Kyoto. Love the hot spring so much. Nice location and great environment. However, the room size is a bit small that you even cannot fully open a large suitcase.

Extremely clean and nice hotel. Duvet & bed are comfy. Close to shopping and food.

Response from Property: I am very grateful to Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Onsen Solaniwa Rodai Sake Store. A very interesting review. The liquor store is located in the city center of Kyoto, close to the Kyoto River, and visitors can walk to Pontocho, Gion, Yasaka Shrine, Kiyomizu Temple, and other famous sightseeing spots. The open garden terrace of the liquor store is the main feature of our liquor store, where you can enjoy the view of Kyoto, view the eastern mountain scenery in the morning and evening, and also enjoy the foamy foot bath. There are two natural open-air hot springs, "Yasaka no Yu" and "Niwa no Yu". If you are tired while traveling, you may also be able to take a bath and enjoy free drinks such as ice cream and dim sum. We have created a liquor store that we hope will serve customers from all over the country, and we will be able to serve you at any time depending on the demand. The next time I'm excited, I'm looking forward to seeing you again. Shijo Kawaramachi Onsen Soraniwa Terrace Kyoto Store Manager Hajime Yokota

Room is small. Bed is sunken in. Onsen is great. Breakfast need to book 3 days in advance. Customer Service is average. Price point is slightly too high.

Beautiful hotel, right in the shopping district, 5 min walking to Nishiki market very close to Gion, and the river just behind the hotel. The Onsen was Definitely one of the highlights in our trip, just what we needed after long walking day. The Roof bar is amazing with view and calm atmosphere I’m goanna definitely recommend this hotel

We hv a very terrible experience during our check-in. We booked as 2 adult and 1 kids in 7 months ago. When we checked in, the staff said the hotel had changed its policy and children is not welcome and it was not allowed to hv 3 ppl in a room. We hv a book additional room but the hotel was already fully booked. They could offer an upgrade to VIP room with only 100k yen per night. They said it was a expensive option, and it was fine if we didn't accept it. Of coz, we didn't cause that wasnt our fault. I said it was allowed to hv a child with us when we booked it. They said I need to give evidence for that. Luckily, my booking receipt showed "Child is allowed if they can sleep in the same bed". After checking, they said they gave us an exception and allowed my kid to stay with us this time. "But next time, you need to book 2 rooms but u probably won't come again." We are definitely not coming again. To be honest, the hotel has gd facilities and good location. Amazing views in the bar and common bath. I think if u were couple, it would be fine. But if any issue happens in ur booking, I don't think they would be helpful.

Response from Property: Thank you very much for staying at Shijo Kawaramachi Onsen Solaniwa Terrace Kyoto. We would like to thank you for taking great care of the special space on the rooftop "Sora Niwa Terrace," which is one of our prides.Enjoying the footbath while admiring the scenery of Kyoto's Higashiyama as it changes from morning to noon to evening and night allows many customers to experience a special and extraordinary time.Please take a breather, relax and unwind with services such as a welcome drink.We apologize for the inconvenience this time. For now,only 2 people can stay in one room for Soraniwaterrace, whether it is an adult or a child. We will continue to strive to improve our services, thank you for your understanding.

Great location near Kawaramachi station, there are also huge shopping centers within walking distance. Great foot spa and public bath facilities. The room size is small but expected for Kyoto city centre. It’s great for 1 person but might be a tricky for couples and family. Overall a great hotel and would definitely stay again.
