Top Katsura Imperial Villa Hotel Reviews

Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel Emion was great 3 years ago and still is. The staff, the amenities, the location, the oishii breakfast-all 5 stars. My friends and I enjoyed it and the people there the most compared to the Tokyo hotels we stayed in."

Oriental Hotel Kyoto Rokujo

8/10 Good

"A quaint modern hotel in the middle of a rural housing area. Quite a walk from Kyoto station about 20 minutes so if you have luggage the take a taxi. Rooms are small but ok for one or 2 people. I had a regular room. Breakfast buffet was OK but not too many options and it can get busy. They're strict on check in, even if you're early by 20 minutes so bare that in mind"
