Japan Historic Vacations

Our stay was very comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel was clean, the staff were kind and helpful, and the service was excellent throughout our stay. The location was also convenient, and the atmosphere was relaxing. I would definitely recommend this hotel to other travelers visiting Okinawa. Thank you

Very good access to food and shopping

Our favorite place to stay in Japan.

The hotel was very lovely and all the staff were welcoming and courteous. I was able to obtain a room upgrade upon my arrival without any issues. My room was very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The breakfast buffet had a nice selection of items that accommodated western visitors. My favorite was the french toast. The location is situated in a quiet area of Kyoto in the Kamiygo Ward and about a 11-14 minute walk to the subway station but the hotel offers daily shuttle service to a main station for convenience. On some days where I had long days of walking I preferred to take the local taxis which can drive you to popular places nearby like Gion and Nishiki Market. There is also a 7Eleven around the corner if you need to withdraw money from an ATM. Just be aware that the luggage delivery service the hotel partners with (Sagawa Express) does not offer luggage transport to the airport so if Kyoto is your last destination in Japan before you depart for the airport you will need to consider other options. Other than that I would highly recommend the Kyoto Brighton.

Perfect location to visit the castle and a wonderful view of it from our room. Clean, large and well kept room, with a very useful laundry machine in our room. Perfect for a long trip when you need a refresh.

I bought a bottle of wine from a lady at one of the shops and the wine she recommended was perfect, couldn’t have enjoyed a better wine. Travelling from a distance can be difficult and stressful we all need time to adjust and relax before we start dealing with new rules and regulations. Adjustment time !

great location, friendly staff. good but not great breakfast buffet The room cleaning service forgot to empty garbage and pajamas were still under sheets. The hotel is so large with multiple towers and elevator banks its easy to get lost

Staying at this hotel made riding the train easy, and there were many options nearby for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The room was clean and I had all I needed. I thought that the design of the bathroom faucet was strange. I couldn't leave it on, except at full strength. I found that inconvenient.
