Top Shogoin Hotel Reviews

Dhawa Yura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel and great location."

Hilton Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We couldn’t have been more surprised with this hotel, amazing 5* from the hotel to the staff, we couldn’t fault this at all.it made our stay in Kyoto even more memorable and we will definitely be back and recommend this to all! The Italian and bakery inside the hotel was also a huge bonus if your needing a change"

Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

10/10 Excellent

"Our triple room (which I believe was a double with the couch converted) was slightly bigger than others we’d stayed in while in Japan. We had no view to speak of but it didn’t matter because we spent the majority of our time out, sightseeing and enjoying the city. I liked the hotel’s system for notifying staff of the need for a cleaning: a magnet on the door signifying the need for a full clean, change of trash bag and linens, or no service at all. Everything in the hotel felt relatively upscale. The entrance from the street (next to the Rolex store) was lovely, as there were fresh flowers and we were greeted by air conditioning and a really calming, fresh scent each time we entered. The other entrance (into the underground mall/subway complex) was very convenient and allowed us to teach destinations more quickly than if we were to brave the crowds on the streets above. Breakfasts were outstanding, and staff was clearly aimed at pleasing each guest. My only (very minor) disappointment was that, since I’d read there were laundry facilities on-site, I’d planned to do our laundry here. There were 2 machines, both tiny, and both full. However, we were able to toss our laundry into one rolling suitcase and take it to a proper laundromat a half mile away, and that worked out just fine. The hotel is quite nice, and I would most definitely stay here again."

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Great room for 3 people. The rain shower was great and I wish I got to use the tub. Elevators were smooth and quick. Breakfast had a variety. Staff was incredibly kind and helpful. My boyfriend left his wallet in an Uber and the staff took care of communicating with Uber and the driver for the return of it. The location is also great. Right by the river, the main shopping district and Gion. Incredible stay."
