"Great location, super modern and clean, staff was very friendly and even had a birthday card for my daughter and let us use a Polaroid camera to make memories. They saw us dressed up in kimonos and came outside to take pictures of us. Even told us where to pose so you could see the beautiful temple in the background. Overall, this was a beautiful place and I would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend"

"We stayed in Emion hotel for 4 days. Clean, tidy with very friendly staff. Less than 5 min to city railway station and starbucks, one station away from a large grocery store, one station away from Kyoto station which is a railway hub. Getting taxi in kyoto is also easy and right in front of hotel. Very good size room for us as a family of four people."

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."
