"This is the perfect place for an authentic Japanese experience. The staff are wonderful and the meals are superb. Tranquil surroundings with a 5 star multi-course meals each day for breakfast and dinner. The sauna and hot baths were great for winding down after a day of touring. Touring was easy because bus lines and train lines are nearby. We were sorry to leave the Tea House and really hope to return some day. "

"The owner was very lovely and polite, he prep matcha tea for welcoming us also offering fresh bread making in the morning for our breakfast but my family were very tired from a long day travelling and activities we did in the area, we just want to sleep in so we had to miss out on that. House was clean. The bath was the highlight for us. Just the tap in both toilets a bit hard to operate so we had to wash our hands in the bathroom instead."

Top Shisendo Temple Hotel Reviews

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Of the 4 hotels I booked in Japan, this is easily my favorite. So conveniently located, early check in, kind and helpful staff. Easy laundry machines and not the bad 2 in on1 machines. The separate machines take up more space, I understand, but they dry well. The 2 in 1 machines are horrible. So thank you. Luggage transfer was easy. Beautiful hotel, spacious room and nice bathroom. Will definitely book here again,"

Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

"I traveled solo. Stayed at the Oakie the entire time I was in Kyoto. Love the location. Friendly helpful staff. Quiet rooms. I only criticism was the breakfast. Very standard. You’re not really meeting a Japanese high standard. I’m sure it’s fine for most. I was just spoiled with all the other fabulous restaurants and places to eat in the area."

"Excellent hotel, great service and superb location."

Ryokan Sawaya Honten

10/10 Excellent

"This property was fantastic. I traveled in a group of three, and the room itself was more than large enough for all three of us to stay comfortably, without it feeling like we were walking into each other. The AC was incredibly effective, the shower pressure was top notch. The in room bidet? Excellent. Although I did not enjoy the public baths, opting for that in my room, I highly recommend this location for stays."

Hotel Okura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Will stay there again"
