My mother and I absolutely loved staying at Westin Miyako for our celebratory Kyoto trip. The renovated room was spacious and beautiful with excellent bedding and well appointed amenities. We enjoyed using the spa and dining at the buffet. The hotel is a bit away from sites but we didn’t mind because we preferred quiet stay. The area is peaceful and walking to nanzenji area was great. Most of all, we thank all the staff who were so kind and so helpful to us, making our stay wonderful!

We stayed at Urban Hotel Kyoto Shijo Premium for 1 night. The location of the hotel was closed to Gion district and Nishiki market by bus. There is a bus stop outside the hotel where you can catch a bus to Kyoto station. The room was clean but very small in size as we expected. We stayed in a queen queen, and the bed was comfortable.

I grabbed a three-night stay at the Double Eleven price. Although it's not in a very busy area, it's very convenient to go out to the subway station, bus station, fresh food supermarket and drugstore. The service is not bad, and the front desk will do its best to solve any problems. One night I bought some big roots and wanted the restaurant to cut them, but they said there was no such service. I asked the front desk to give me a handful🔪 and I was very satisfied! The room is 18 square meters and not small. I didn't eat breakfast in the store, so I can't comment on it. In short, it's still worth staying. By the way, you can go to the 7th floor every night to take a hot spring to relieve fatigue~

One of the best hotels we visited in Japan! Truly amazing experience. All visitors walk without shoes in the hotel but the floor was absolutely clean and nice. Excellent baths, massage chairs, breakfast (in the photo) and complementary ramen & ice cream. The room and the hotel as well were in Japanese style which was perfect for us. 11 minutes from shinkansen railway station, 7 minutes from subway, 30-40 minutes by foot to Gyon. Smoking room was available however it was pretty small but ok.
What could be improved: more cleaning in the bathing area in dressing room. More massage chairs would be nice as it was pretty crowded due to people waiting in queues. One woman left her child in the massage chair with ipad “for hours” so it was impossible for other visitors to use it.
Overall, fascinating hotel and we will 100% sure come back!

The spirit of hospitality in the heart of Kyoto.
Kyoto, the thousand-year capital.
Located near the old Kyoto Imperial Palace in what once was the heart of the capital city.
Sanjo Street, a street at the intersection between history and modernity.
Now home to Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER to open this summer.

We seemed to have walked into a botanica garden on our first day, AKA Mitsui Gardens Kyoto Sanjo Premier. The whole hotel is beautifully designed and well maintained. A simple air well was also turned into an Art piece. We fell in love with their public bath as the citrus scent from that wellness space draws us back every evening for a relaxed bath. They have a team of professional staffs who were warm and welcoming. I highly recommend this hotel and will definitely be going back there again.

Not a bad hotel to stay in. There is a complimentary drink for each guest per stay in the hotel. The concept is towards minimalist, comfortable beds and fairly sound proof. The twin room is consider hire spacious. There is a sauna and onsen (male/female switched in alternate days), but we didn’t utilise.
The toilet Is a bit dark and wash basin is situated outside.
Check in is at 17:00hrs and check out is before 14:00hrs. It’s good for guests who are catching a later flight.
Staff are wonderful and very helpful.

The environment is very good. The hotel opened in 2024. There is a hot spring designed by Kengo Kuma. This is my second stay just for these reasons. The disadvantages are that there is a cemetery next to it, so please choose carefully if you are afraid of it. In addition, the flip-flops are a bit useless and can't be worn at all. If you walk to the hot spring area, it will hurt. I have never encountered the problem of flip-flops being difficult to wear in other Japanese hotels. I hope it can be improved.

GGuest UserMy wife and I booked the Classic Room for 3 nights in April 2025. We thought this was one of the best hotels we stayed at during our trip.
From the moment you enter the hotel, you are welcomed by the hotel staff. You leave your bags with them and you walk up to a separate reception area where you are seated and offered tea and macarons. Check in is conducted while you sip your tea. After you get your keys, you go up to your room and your luggage bags are already there. We were very impressed by the reception.
The room itself is fairly sizeable and offers a cabinet of Fauchon snacks. We had a good view of the alley behind the hotel that was lined with Sakura trees. We could also see the mountains in the distance.
The location of the hotel is also great. It is located about a 5-10 minutes walk from downtown Kyoto and about a 5 minutes walk to Kiyomizu-gojo station.
We also had breakfast which included a free flow selection of bread and pastries like French croissant, baguette and brioche. You also get a fruit plate, salad, and omelette. If you stay for more than 1 night, you also get a premium breakfast menu for your 2nd night onwards.
We will definitely return to this hotel the next time we are in Kyoto.

FFabian YipLove love love this hotel!
Pros:
- The room was so modern, clean and spacious! For frequent travellers to Japan, you would definitely know how rare it is to find a spacious hotel!
- Many and sufficient toiletries are provided.
- There are hotspring (public bath).
- Location is good (near to Gojo station). There are also direct buses to places like Gion, Kiyomizu Dera.
- There is a convenient store downstairs.
Cons:
- Gojo station is a subway line. So if you are travelling here from Osaka, you may be alighting at other stations along the main line instead. Thus, you may need to carry your luggage and walk slightly longer to the hotel.
- No popsicle is provided (usually comes with hotspring?)

KKC333We loved our stay at Hotel the Mitsui. Super nice and zen design . Absolutely adore their lobby area, which I think is designed by Andre Fu. Always drawn into his work somehow.
Breakfast food was okay, but the view really made up everything l. Super relaxing & beautiful
Service was great. Most of them were able to speak English proficiently.
There’s a thermal spring at their basement, which you have to call the reception before you go to ensure there’s enough space. Everything was well prepared, including swimwear, disposable underpants, towels, water, etc. Since they control the # of people, everyone has their own space and it still feels very private.
Room is nice with many details. Love their huge selection of pillows available for guests. It’s not huge, but the space is well used.
Location wise, I wouldn’t say it’s the most convenient, but if you take a cab, everything is reachable in 20 mins max, so it’s not too bad. There are still good restaurants and touristy places to go that are in walkable distance, so it’s not middle of nowhere.
Overall, fantastic experience which I will recommend for others!
ZZomoAmazing Hotel right behind Kyoto Station!
The hotel has a good enough onsen, one Open air bath, one large indoor hot bath and a small Cold bath along with a sauna!
Hotel provides free coffee in the morning, and from noon to night, green tea and some other beverages.
Everything is clean and rooms are definitely more spacious than most Japanese hotels!
Amazingly, they even provided Charging cables just in case you forgot yours!

GGuest UserA very good stay experience.
The location is very good, very close to the various attractions in Arashiyama, about 10 minutes on foot, quiet in the bustling city. But it takes more than 10 minutes to walk to the station, etc. If you are carrying luggage, it is still a bit inconvenient, you can take a taxi.
Because the red leaf season is very expensive, we booked a basic room type, which was allocated on the 2nd floor, but the view from the balcony is very good, with red leaves and Arashiyama in the distance. The room is quite satisfactory, and the luxury hotel is average.
The service feels very individual. The front desk reception we just checked in was very polite and very good. When we checked out, we felt just so-so, a little arrogant.
The hotel is not big, but the landscaping is beautiful, one step at a time. Especially the small courtyard opposite the restaurant, it is very enjoyable to sit on the bed during breakfast, and there are two black cats in the yard. We took a lot of satisfactory photos in the hotel, the key point is that there is no one!
As for additional services, since our room did not have a bath, we tried the private baths in the hotel. There are two private baths next to each other. The bamboo forest environment is very good. I personally recommend the one inside. However, you need to make an appointment in advance, and the service fee is more than RMB 200. Before leaving, I asked the hotel to help reserve a taxi from Kyoto Station, which cost about RMB 200, which was very convenient for catching the plane.

There’s an hourly shuttle bus that brings us to Kyoto station. Room is decently big (in normal Japan standards) and we liked the bathroom (both standing and tub).

GGuest UserI travelled to Japan for 20th time over the past many years. Been to Kyoto three times, this is one of the better hotel in times of value for money.
The hotel provides good breakfast, clean onsen, cleaning services and a coin laundry.
If coming from KIX, the airport bus stops directly opposite the hotel. The hotel location is perfect, where it is just across the JR station. As Kyoto is mainly using bus, the main bus terminal is within walking distance.
The breakfast is good- warm porridge, with local Kyoto dishes, bread, mochi, etc. so much variety.
Staffs are friendly and ready to help.
The only thing is that the bathroom is small, but that could be mitigated by the onsen.
Been to Japan countless times, I will definitely book this hotel again should I visit Kyoto! One of the better value for money hotel.

LLinh CCould have give it 5stars if the bathroom is clean and not smell urine so bad. Others than that breakfast was awesome, Customer service was top not, location is perfect to go everywhere. Also they said they have bus service every 15 minutes to Kyoto station which is not true, we waited forever 1.5 hours or so, but they never came. We saw others hotel busses came by several times. I didn’t confront this to the front desk tho. We was taxi everywhere and it was cheap, furthest would be 20 minutes taxi drive and about 3,000 yen which is reasonable.
