"We really enjoyed staying in a real house in a real neighborhood for our trip to Kyoto. There was plenty of room for our small family, and we felt we had a more authentic visit to this beautiful city. A couple things to note for those who read reviews is that the stairs to the bedrooms are very steep and narrow, and I worried for my husband navigating them in the dark at night. The bed in the second bedroom is on the floor, which isn't a bad thing considering this is an authentic experience,...

Top Iwayaji Temple Hotel Reviews

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Clean room and walking distance to mall and Kyoto Station"

Rihga Gran Kyoto

8/10 Good

"A well positioned hotel close to the main station. The room was spacious, well maintained with wonderfully comfortable beds. The bathroom was good. We didn't eat at the hotel as we generally prefer to eat elsewhere. We did consider having breakfast but the price seemed very high compared to local eating establishments. Free coffee and soft drinks in the reception area was a nice touch. My only complaint was the lifts; they were plainly possessed by some malignant spirit and rarely went to the requested floor without visiting a number of random floors first!! Overall, a good hotel to stay at but use the stairs if you're in a hurry."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Evening ramen service and multi level onsen"

Randor Residential Hotel Kyoto Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Apparantly Expedia doesn't tell us that there is a room tax, payable in cash, once you arrive at the hotel. So, that was a bit of a surprise. Also, we arrived early and the girl at the front desk just told us to put our bags to the side, didn't show much interest in helping us, or being friendly. Other than that, the stay was excellent. The rooms are amazing, beds are incredible, bathroom is superb!"

Hotel The Celestine Kyoto Gion

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay with great location and exceptional staff service."

Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Great place to stay"

Hotel The M’s Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was convenient with location, services and relaxation"

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"All the amenities, lobby, and room were very clean, spacious, and well-maintained! The luggage lockers were especially helpful. Two tips: (1) make sure you rinse off in one of the showers near the public bath before entering (this isn't listed on the list of "rules" but it is, indeed, one). (2) Be prepared to wait awhile for the laundry machines to open up; they were full for a while when we were there. Also you'll probably have to run the drying cycle 1.5 times to get your load fully dry."

Hotel Granvia Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing location at the train station. Very central and convenient to see the city. Rooms could have done with a refurb but the rest of the facilities were top notch. Really good service and staff - very, very helpful and friendly."
