Top Shinsenen Hotel Reviews

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Grea location nice rooms good breakfast."

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The location is just absurdly good. I didn’t appreciate fully how nice it is to be in the heart of Gion until we got there. It’s a stone’s throw from a Lawson’s, walking along the river, the coffee cafe M Stand (this is absolutely the best kept secret - you want incredible views and top tier flat whites? Go to M Stand and thank me later)… close to transit… Aircon in the room worked great and was somehow silent… and the four beds worked out well for our family. Front desk was so helpful - recommend if you do the Kurama/Kibune hike that you get their help booking a Kawadoko lunch/dinner."

The Royal Park Canvas Kyoto Nijo

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel for a family of four. We booked two rooms next to each other and it was still cheaper than most hotels that take a family of four in one room. The rooms were clean and no smell. Staff was helpful with the check in since the kiosk was a little complicated especially when it is in Japanese."

The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I stayed at The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Kyoto for our first visit to Kyoto, and overall we had a wonderful stay. The location was excellent — very walkable to many attractions, shops, and restaurants around Sanjo and Shijo. It made exploring Kyoto very convenient, especially for first-time visitors like us. One of the highlights was the access to the Iconic Lounge. We really enjoyed the complimentary breakfast, afternoon tea, and the relaxing lounge atmosphere. We do not drink alcohol, so the cocktail time was just okay for us personally, but we still appreciated the overall experience and service. We also enjoyed the small public bath at the hotel. It was a nice way to relax after walking around Kyoto all day. The room itself was adequate, clean, and comfortable for our stay. The only downside was that our room, #301, was located right outside the laundromat. Many guests were hanging around outside our room and talking late at night, which made it difficult to fully relax. I would suggest the hotel place a polite sign outside the laundry room reminding guests not to loiter or speak loudly near guest rooms, especially at night. Other than that, we truly enjoyed our stay and would and would recommend this hotel for its great location, lounge benefits, public bath, and overall comfort."
