Nothing to complain about except 1 thing: there was no pool table as shown on the photos and we were not told about it. The guy who gave us the keys told us it is being fixed, which is fine but we would have prefered to know beforehand as we were very excited about it. "

Top Iwayaji Temple Hotel Reviews

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Hotel is close to shops and dining options. Although the hotel is located just opposite Kyoto station, walking to and from the gates or terminal still took us 8-10 mins- definitely something to consider especially if travelling with older person. The entrance to the shops connected to Kyoto station is just opposite the hotel, so about 1-2min walk only. As per hotel room, the space is enough for 3 pax, bed was not bad but the pillows were not the most comfortable. Check in and check out using machine so less interaction from staff but staff helpful when asked. I would probably try the other Miyako accommodation next time which I noticed is closer to the terminal/gates."

Hotel Granvia Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Such a great place with amazing staff and a zen vibe."

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and functional. Great location and near to the station so easy to get about on foot, bus or train to attractions. Didn’t have much interaction with staff apart from checking in and breakfast but they were all friendly . The breakfast was lovely, delicious and lots of choices."

KANSEI Kyoto Hachijo

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel room is spacious , clean and well maintained. It is close enough you the Kyoto station. I enjoyed my stay there"

Hotel Anteroom Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"My stay at the hotel was very enjoyable."

Rihga Gran Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great experience overall with no major complains."

Daiwa Roynet Hotel Kyoto Hachijoguchi

8/10 Good

"We loved the location of this hotel. Just south of Kyoto Station, which let us explore the region at ease. There were tons of restaurants nearby (close to the hotel, and near the Station). The room was actually quite spacious! (Especially compared the the hotel we had in Tokyo.) The two twin beds, while individually quite small, could be pushed together and make enough room for a family of 4 (two adults, two children under age 7). Amenities were nice (available in the lobby, some available for rent for free). As well, staff were all kind and helpful, particularly the breakfast staff. We were pleased with this hotel! Only a couple of cons. We paid to have breakfast included and while we really liked it the first day, after a 6 night stay it started to get old as none of the food was changed, but we have come to expect this after our trip to Japan. Consider trying the breakfast for a few days but don't depend on it for a long trip. The staff at breakfast was wonderful, however! My biggest complaint is the room did not offer a nice view (facing south, lower floor) but the opposite side seemed to have a glimpse of a nice view featuring buildings, temples an greenery/mountains in the background. We should have asked for a better view but were staying with friends in a nearby room. And finally, the hotel did have more of a corporate/business feel and we would probably want to stay somewhere with more personality and more 'traditional' if staying in Kyoto in the future."

Randor Residential Hotel Kyoto Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Our travel plans changed suddenly and were in a need of a last minute stay. Great location at a great price."

Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great property, location, decor , outdoor pond , great restaurant!"
