"There were two Japanese well maintained gardens and stone paving hallway outside. They were beautiful and they made us feel very historical culture. The summer season in Kyoto is very uncomfortable to stay outside because of the hight temperature but, in this house, for some reason we could stay comfortably without air conditioner. It was a huge house but all the rooms were cleaned perfectly. Especially we were impressed with the bathroom. The high-tech toilets beautiful wooden bath tub made us...

Top Nishijin Hotel Reviews

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay with excellent amenities (e.g. laundry room). The bakery is top notch. Bar and restaurant staff were very helpful. Breakfast buffet is worth the price."

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"This was a wonderful and beautiful hotel! One of the special parts of this hotel is that there is a bath house on the bottom floor where you can soak. There is also a laundry area on the bottom floor as well as a lounge with snacks and drinks that are free to guests. I will definitely recommend this hotel to everyone!"

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Our room was nice appointed. The furnishing was very high quality. It came with an espresso machine as well. I noted the edges of the bath tub was actually not caulked at all in the shower which seemed strange. The AC seems a bit dated and underpowered. The hotel was very close to the Main Kyoto Station which commuting very easy. I would recommend."

Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"The location was convenient, and everything made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. We truly appreciated the warm hospitality and attention to detail. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for excellent service and a comfortable stay!”"

RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, not too far from the train station, but because of the heat, it was a bit unbearable to walk with luggages. They actually provide a shuttle from the train station to the hotel, which we found out after the fact. The hotel is very nice and had a modern feel to it. My favorite was their breakfast. We had a choice to either go to the buffet, which had amazing selections of both International and Japanese food or go to the rotating restaurant with amazing view that serves international breakfast. We tried both during our stay and loved it very much. I would go back and stay there again."
