Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"Very central location close to train station."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"There are lots of amenities here -like the public bath and the big fancy breakfast- but assume you will need to compete for every resource, from a breakfast table to a shoe locker. The lobby felt like a combination of a college dorm and an airport gate. Things are generally good in your room, and all supplies were in order. Walls are thin enough I was woken up by my neighbor’s alarm every morning. Breakfast waits at 6:45 AM were about 45 minutes. I spilled some hand wash soap on the area in front of the sink and learned that the floor was not nearly as clean as it appeared."

APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori

10/10 Excellent

"Convenient location, walking distance to Kyoto train station. Hotel is clean and breakfast delishious and plentyfull."

Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect room and lovely staff. We really enjoyed the stay at this hotel and would recommend to everyone."

Mercure Kyoto Station

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very helpful. The room was spacious for Japan. The bathroom, toilet and sink were all separate and it worked very well Location was great for us. My only negative comment is that it would have been nice if they had towel racks to hang a used towel on to dry after bathing/showering. We would recommend this hotel."
