Romantic Hotels in Kyoto

All my expectations were exceeded. It's difficult to express in words how amazing our stay was. The staff are the best - genuinely friendly and went out of their ways to help us with a luggage issue. The rooms are well appointed, cosy and elegant and the location is perfect. We were so in love with the hotel that we cut short our Tokyo trip to come back here! Couldn't recommend this more!

Comfortable stay with an impressive terrace on roof top where you can chill out with the view of Kyoto while soaking your feet, so comfy! Bar time in the evening at the terrace. Small hot bath area yet peaceful ambience. Small room but well equipped. They suggest to store the luggage under the bed but personally found that it isn't practical for big luggage. Otherwise the mattress is comfortable and the provided amenities are all fine for the stay. Good location even department stores, shops, restaurants, public transportation, attractions, Gion and etc are in walking distance but still silent enough and I had a good stay here. Also taxi stop is just right in front of the hotel entrance. Luggage can be store after check out but please check with the time for picking up with the staff.

Here’s a possible review for your stay: I had a fantastic stay at this accommodation! The space was immaculately clean, and the bathroom was incredibly well-equipped, allowing for a personal onsen experience – such a treat! The added feature of being able to dry clothes in the bathroom was a great bonus. The mini kitchen was also a highlight, providing everything needed to prepare a simple hot meal with fresh items from the supermarket. Overall, a wonderfully convenient and comfortable experience. Highly recommend!

Location is perfect. Very near Kyoto station, less than 5 minutes walk. Room was very comfortable! Toilet and shower are separated. Staff were very courteous. You need to purchase detergent at 50 yen for laundry. Use of machines is free. Onsen was great. There’s a sauna and multiple shower cubicles. Also features outdoor onsen. There’s a basic gym as well. Didn’t try the breakfast.

Best toilet in all the hotels we’ve been to during our trip in Japan so far. Spacious shower stall with rain shower included. WiFi was also very fast, and so strong we could still get a signal from across the street (password required of course). Room was also very clean and comfy. Service staff were very helpful and polite, and also proficient in English.

Our stay at DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto was truly memorable. The service was outstanding, with staff who were not only professional but also warm and attentive to every detail. The room was spacious, clean, and elegantly designed, reflecting the serene atmosphere of Kyoto. The hotel’s amenities were top-notch, and the welcome cookies added a delightful touch to the experience. Its location offered easy access to Kyoto’s cultural landmarks while still providing a peaceful retreat after a day of exploring. Highly recommend for a perfect balance of comfort and excellent service in Kyoto!

Hot spring ，room and meals are amazing！I love their public spring even though I don't like public spring before. Different cuisine every meals！ Location is far away from Kyoto downtown，but easy to find once arrive at end of Hankyu Railway. Yukata is provided but small size quickly out，better to grab one asap.

There are not many varieties of breakfast, mostly Western style, but also Japanese style. This hotel is not suitable for traveling with children. The overall atmosphere is not suitable for bringing children. The bathroom is divided into three areas, and the shower room is very small, which makes it difficult to take a bath with children. The hotel room is small, and people may not be able to get in and out if an extra bed is added.

My husband and I have been to Kyoto many times and stayed in various luxury hotels, but the Kyoto Bettei at the Sora-niwa Terrace this time is definitely our favorite and most satisfying one! Although the room rate is nearly 6,000 per night, it is worth the money. If it weren’t for the fact that the bed was a little too soft and not elastic enough, it would almost be a full score💯 The hotel is in an extremely advantageous location, with subways and trains nearby, small rivers and large rivers within easy reach, and beautiful scenery; The room has a private hot spring in Shijo Kawaramachi, which is extremely rare in a hotel in the city center, and the hot spring water quality is excellent. After taking a bath every day, I feel that my skin and body are in great condition; The service is first-class, the front desk guy is handsome and gentle, not only carefully and thoughtfully explaining all the details, but also recommending several particularly delicious restaurants for us (we have almost tasted them, great!) The hotel room is spacious and very comfortable, making us almost reluctant to go out... There is a warm outdoor terrace overlooking Kiyomizu Temple, a TV that can be projected, and a refrigerator full of snacks and various drinks for free... What surprised us most is that the hotel has a ”secret exit” only for guests. From here, you don't need to go through the front desk and go directly to the nearby streets. Every time you walk, you feel like you are on a ”Roman Holiday”. I strongly recommend friends who come to Kyoto to stay here. We will definitely choose this place again next time we come.

Fortunately, I stayed at the famous Park Hyatt Kyoto 701. When checking in at the lobby, the service staff knelt down to serve throughout the whole process. I could enjoy sake, champagne, etc. at the same time. It happened to be a guqin performance at 5 o'clock. The whole check-in experience was smooth and full of senses. When I entered the room and the service staff opened the window, I was intoxicated by the real scene even if I had watched many videos before. During my stay, I saw the red leaves of the ancient pagoda and even the rainbow in the early morning, which was poetic and picturesque. The room supplies are basically the same as other Park Hyatts around the world, and there is no merit or demerit. The breakfast on the second day was mediocre because I had tried the breakfast at Kyoto Yamato before, so I chose Western style this time. The buffet had Chinese buns and rice dumplings, which were quite authentic. The dishes ordered were also amazing, and the udon noodles were delicious. At the breakfast location, you can see the comings and goings of people in Ninenzaka, and even feel that you are part of the street. A small complaint is: there seems to be an exhaust vent for the heating system under room 701. There will be intermittent white smoke floating in the autumn and winter. When the smoke is heavy, it affects the viewing experience. If you want to take pictures, you have to wait for a while. I hope the hotel can make adjustments in the future.
