Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

8/10 Good

"Private onsens were good."

The Royal Park Canvas Kyoto Nijo

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the huge king size bed. It was two doubles put together. The shower was amazing! We booked 4 different hotel stays in Japan on this trip and this is hands down the best and the lowest cost! It’s right across from the train station and easy to get to different places in Kyoto. If you plan to use the gym, the stationary bikes are very uncomfortable to sit on. The free drinks station in the lobby is a nice bonus!"

Agora Place Kyoto Nijo

8/10 Good

"The Agora place is a no frills but relaxed hotel. There are amenities on the ground floor that are all you need. The room was a reasonable size and very clean. The staff were helpful and friendly. There is a large supermarket very close. The hotel is close to the Nijo castle and Imperial palace and an easy walk to bus stops and metro station with direct access to Kyoto station. My room was quiet but the hotel is situated on a busy noisy road."

Urban Hotel Kyoto Nijo Premium

10/10 Excellent

"80代母と50代娘二人で泊まりました。部屋はとても綺麗でした。ベッドマットも硬めでいい感じでした。朝ごはんビュッフェがどれも美味しい！さらに、スタッフの方々が細かに目を配り、お声かけしてくださったので、何も困ることなく、大満足でした。おかげさまで良い旅行になりました。ありがとうございました。"
