Top Zenshoji Temple Hotel Reviews

Hilton Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The staff was so sweet and helpful. The room was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The breakfast buffet had everything you could ask for. This was our first time in Japan and we both agreed at the end of our stay that the next time we come back we will be staying here once again, but next time for longer."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"The rooms were very clean. Unless you get to breakfast before it opens, you'll be waiting up to half an hour just to get in. The onsen was great. There should be laundry on every floor because you will only get a machine in the middle of the night. The staff were outstanding"

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"Overall it's a very nice and clean hotel. It is also quite spacious in comparison with other Japanese brand hotels, the beds are big as well. The only down side is the breakfast, not much selection as I was hoping for some Japanese style breakfast. The ones they offer is not bad but since it's a Japanese brand hotel, I would've love to have some Japanese style breakfast included."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect hotel and not that expensive. Perfect location. The onsen are beautiful. You have everything within walking distance."

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Modern, clean, well-thought-out in layout of rooms and hotel. Centrally located. Staff were very helpful and kind, especially Yotaro for check in and Mon Myat Thu in the restaurant, (who saw me with my Matcha powder in the breakfast buffet and promptly offered to make me a Matcha latte!). Great breakfast buffet. Best hotel experience we’ve had in years! We’ll look for other locations should we return to Japan."

Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei

10/10 Excellent

"The room was really nice. Very spacious and beautifully designed. Our room appeared to be one of two rooms overlooking a car park but that didn’t bother us. It was a bonus to be able to log in to Netflix at the end of long days touring and making use of the hotel’s happy hour between 3:00 pm and 6:00 pm. There’s easy access to their garden. We didn’t eat at their restaurant and the breakfast option did seem a bit pricey. All staff were very friendly and professional. We would definitely stay there again and certainly recommend."

Hotel Okura Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was impeccable. The restaurants were amazing. Our only complaint was the showers were not hot. Not a big issue, but strange given what an amazing hotel it is."

The Westin Miyako Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Concierge was super helpful in arranging a dinner reservation as well as airport transfer"

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

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