Top Shimogamo Shrine Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was so lovely! The room was large comfortable and clean, the service was amazing and the onsen was really clean and enjoyable. Free matcha and coffee all day and night as well as ramen evening snack"

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in Kyoto. They offer amazing toiletries/guest amenities!!!"

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Kyoto Oike

10/10 Excellent

"One of my best stay in Japan. The room is spacious, for the Japanese standard, and ver comfortable. The staff is great and the location Is good. Close to transportation, bars and restaurants. Also, it is close but not in the middle of the crowd."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Solario Hotel, Kyoto: great location, pricey for what you get The location is the standout. It's easy to reach the main sights and getting around the city is simple, which makes it a very convenient base for exploring Kyoto. The rest of the stay was solid: everything was pretty good and nothing really let us down. The one drawback is value. Given what the room rate was, I expected a bit more, and it could be better for the price. Still, if location is your priority, it's hard to beat. Verdict: Recommended for the location. Just go in knowing the price is on the high side."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is brand new and in pristine condition, but there were some notable operational quirks. It doesn’t seem like management is able to decide whether this is a luxury property or a select service hotel - even though there were two reception desks staffed at all times, the staff were actively pushing customers to use the three self-service kiosks for all operations (check-in, breakfast coupons, check-out) and actually doing the work for them on those machines. Not sure what the point of that was or whether it should be the case in a luxury property. Similarly, the public bath in the basement is pretty underwhelming, if pristine. All that said, the rooms were spotless, staff were very helpful and spoke English impeccably, and breakfast was great both in terms of food selection and quality."

Ryokan Yoshida-sanso

8/10 Good

"Incredibile experience of staying in a traditional ryokan. Very calm/peaceful atmosphere and the most lovely staff. Our room had everything we needed however, no coffee machine. There was a cafe nearby though, and breakfast was delicious and included coffee."

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Stay was great and staff was very helpful. Location was perfect!"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo
