Smile Hotel Kyoto karasmagojo ★★★
"Very friendly service! The rooms are clean but small but that is normal for Japan. The location is great as well!"
Tennen Onsen Renka no Yu Onyado Nono Kyoto Shichijo ★★★★
"This is my go-to hotel every time I visit Kyoto. The hot springs are incredibly relaxing, and the ice cream is top-notch. They even have little toys for kids. The soundproofing in the rooms is excellent. I'm really looking forward to staying here again next time!"
The Hedistar Hotel Kyoto Nijo Comic&Books ★★★
"This is my favourite hotel on our travels around Japan. The room size was a little small but it was fine for a few nights as a base to explore Kyoto. It's walking distance from some great sites like Nijo Castle, the Samurai Ninja museum and the bustling market. The transport links are great and easy to get to most places of interest. Staff were very helpful and even rushed to fetch towels when we came in from the rain. There is no restaurant on site so, breakfast is only a bento box but it was so tasty! And there's a fantastic little cafe/restaurant just down the street (to the right as you leave the hotel) which was lovely for dinner. My only suggestion is that it would be nice to have a larger selection of manga in English or other languages."
APA Hotel Kyoto-Ekikita ★★★
"Great location, 5 min walk from Kyoto station..."
Hotel the M's Kyoto ★★★
A convenient Kyoto stay near Kawaramachi Street and Kyoto Tower, with free Wi-Fi, family rooms, a lounge, and laundry facilities.
