Room was excellent, decor and ambience were excellent, food was excellent, location was excellent, staff was excellent. One of the best hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. Would 100% recommend
This is a beautiful hotel and the staff is excellent. I would highly recommend and stay here again. The location is great. It is practically adjacent to Kyoto station which makes it very convenient to get around and there are plenty of options for food and shopping. We did not use the amenities or dining because we were busy exploring but I would imagine them to be excellent because this is the type of hotel that caters to their guests and shows a high level of care.
Great hotel, close to the station allowing for easy day trips into and out of Kyoto. Staff are friendly and helpful. Room was excellent and clean. Food at the restaurants was delicious. A great stay overall!
It is a hidden germ in Kyoto city! Close to the train station
I also like their food options, highly recommend booking with breakfast offer and try their afternoon tea
Very comfortable beds and the best towels ever. Quiet but right by the train station for convenience. Tons of shopping and restaurants nearby.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Like: clean room and large
Location : so close to Tokyo train station but still quiet and classy
Staff very polite
They could have included the breakfast for the price we paid for the room …
But overall: fantastic hotel
The hotel was elegant and breathtaking. My daughter enjoyed the magical stairs. All the staff was kind and helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. And it was nice to have either American buffet or Japanese breakfast as our options to start our day perfectly.
Great modern hotel. Spacious comfortable rooms. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Daichi, one of the concierges was incredibly helpful, particularly with a medical matter.
A fabulous hotel newly refurbished. Very comfortable beds and rooms, superb service and very good quality food. Extremely convenient to Kyoto station (about 3-5 mins walk) dependent on your exit.
Great gym and spa. Recommend allowing a little extra time for your breakfast as hotel is always full and consequently busy.
One of the nicer hotels I've stayed in the world. Place was beautiful, service was amazing, and it's walkable from the train station... Will be back, for sure!
Best hotel we stayed at in Japan. Staff were superb, especially concierges, and the staff at the tea service. Not cheap, but spacious and luxurious feel for the price.
Exceptional property!! Beautiful hotel and rooms, very quiet, unbelievably located steps from Kyoto station. Staff is so warm and welcoming! We loved our stay! Will absolutely be visiting again!!
I had a wonderful stay at the thousand Kyoto. The staff were friendly and professional. The facilities were well kept and had well appointed amenities. I would definitely look to stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Kyoto looking for convenience and a five star accommodation experience.
