Top Kyoto University Museum Hotel Reviews

Cross Hotel Kyoto

"Great location. Nice hotel. Staff was not that friendly or accommodating"

Dhawa Yura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was beautiful and staff was great"

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Great breakfast buffet. Very small room but that’s typical."

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We were only in Kyoto for two nights, but found the Brighton to be centrally located to the areas we wanted to explore. Cabs were always available for hire at the from entrance. Rooms were large and clean, with amenities such as pajamas and toiletries included. Large soaking tub made for a relaxing end to a long day of walking. Mineral salts for bath were provided, which were a nice touch. You cant beat the price for this level of luxury. We did not take advantage of any of the restaurants in the hotel, but they do have a breakfast buffet available for a cost. Overall, would definitely return to this property."
