Park Hyatt Kyoto

Higashiyama Kyoto|0.24km from Gesshin-in Temple
Except for the unhappy dinner at Yasaka Teppanyaki, I was very satisfied with everything else. From the greeter at the hotel entrance to the front desk reception, including the room attendant, the service was very considerate. The catering needs to be improved. There are not many breakfast varieties and the taste In general, the fruits are not very fresh, the Yasaka Teppanyaki set meal is expensive and not delicious, and the ingredients are very average. Yasaka is because of the beautiful scenery of the sunset. The scenery in Yasaka is good, but the food is average, and most importantly, you have to first Pay a deposit. If you don't cancel three days in advance, you will be charged the full amount. In short, the entire Park Hyatt Kyoto Hotel feels like its services are good except for the restaurant.

This homestay is really amazing! The landlord is a handsome little brother, who is super nice, and he made a personalized itinerary for us and booked a taxi for us. Before leaving, I also gave away snack packages for my daughter Frozen and Anpanman. I carelessly left the things I bought in Kyoto in my room, and my younger brother immediately sent it to my hotel in Tokyo when he found it. The location of the house is very good. Needless to say, it’s super clean. Upstairs and downstairs can be up to four large and one small. The scenic spots of the ancient capital are all within walking distance. There are many convenience stores and restaurants around, which is very convenient.

Higashiyama Kyoto|0.09km from Gesshin-in Temple
This place is INCREDIBLE! I have no other words for it other than the most pleasant stay I could ever imagine having at a traditional Japanese ryoken. We opted for daily traditional kaseki breakfasts that were served in our room with tea and coffee, would sit at the bar and chat with the staff and sample their great Japanese whiskey collection, enjoyed our beautiful spa-like bathroom with private onsen, heated floors, temperature controlled shower area, and beds so comfy, you couldn't help but fall asleep as soon as your head hit the pillow. The staff were incredibly amazing and very quick to handle any needs we had—and they were SO friendly! We had several great and long conversations with them that they felt like friends more than hotel staff. The location was great too because you were a short walk to several temples, popular tourist sites and great food but was secluded enough that you felt like you could relax and detox from the chaos of other large cities in Japan. This was one of the best experiences during our 12-day stay in Japan. I highly highly recommend. One piece of information that might be helpful, the entrance can be difficult to find but the property will message specific instructions to show the taxi drivers so whether they know English or not, they'll be able to get you close to the entrance. Once dropped off, it's just a short walk to the entrance. But trust me, it's worth the search.

Loads of free amenities available at the lobby as well, and shampoo, conditioner and body soap is provided in pump bottles in the bathroom.

CHION-IN WAJUN-KAIKAN

Higashiyama Kyoto|0.43km from Gesshin-in Temple
This wonderful place is nothing like the rustic version we stayed at in Yudenaka. It is more like an upscale boutiqe hotel. Only 3 floors, but very well kept. Our room was one of the largest we experienced during the 2 weeks we were in Japan. We chose to decline the meal package as we expected we would be out during the dinner time, and did not want to commit to breakfast, as my wife is a very fussy eater. A public bath for men and a bath for women is located in the basement. Exceptionally clean and properly set up in the shower area and bath area,. I chose to take advantage of the bath each evening. It is so incredibly relaxing. The bath is not heated by thermal springs but whatever they use to heat the building. The front desk staff could not be more helpful during our stay. When a snowstorm hit Kyoto, it meant the shipping company that we chose to forward our large suitcases was no longer viable since the company cancelled all trips that day. When we got up the next morning we discovered that the taxi cab companies were not answering the phones that morning(due to snow and ice). The front desk looked at my wife and I with 4 suitcases, my cane and walker and somehow just knew that we couldnt possibly get to the Kyoto station using public transit. The tall, thin gentleman behind the desk, went outside and ran at his fastest speed, 3 blocks to find a idle taxi, ran back to us, still checking out, took all of our luggage outside to the waiting taxi, assisted with the loading, ensuring that we were safely inside and on our way before he went back inside, hopefully to have a well earned cup of tea. The service is outstanding, the meal to my eyes looked incredible. The rooms have ample space for luggage, fully stocked bathrooms, Yukatas for wearing to the bath and 2 bottles of water daily. They also include a small refrigerator. If I should be so fortunate to visit Japan again in my lifetime, this will be my must stay hotel. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH CHION-IN WAJUN KAIKAN!!! EXCELLENT STAFF AND OUTSTANING SERVICE. THANK YOU SO MJCH FOR HELPING MAKE THIS DREAM VACATION SO SPECIAL!!!

Ryokan Motonago

Higashiyama Kyoto|0.06km from Gesshin-in Temple
Yuan Naigu’s Kyoto cuisine is three-star Michelin~ It's really a very satisfying Japanese experience with one night and two meals. Before I traveled, I wanted to experience a traditional ryokan, so I really did my homework. I wanted to live in Yachiyo. However, when I traveled during the peak period, the price rose to an outrageous level. I was looking for it. By coincidence, I found Yuan Naigu. Although Ctrip's diamond level is not high and the reviews are poor, it really exceeded expectations. The location is not to mention~ the scenic spot...the distance you can walk with your legs...anywhere is close... Although there is no private bath, you can make an appointment for the bath time. During that time, you will only have you~ You can check in at 4pm, but you can store your luggage in advance (will wipe your luggage clean). Although the uncle who helped us check in is not standard enough in English, he only needs some basic English and communicates. Completely proper. We will confirm with you in advance the time for dinner, bathing, breakfast the next day and morning bath (if you need it). In the room, there is no way to take a bath, only the sink and toilet, so if you need a bath, you must check the time~ this time the bath is completely yours. The service is very good (traditional Japanese kneeling service), everyone is very kind (there are few young people, all of whom are uncles and aunts), especially the aunt who was in charge of our Beijing cooking that night. She enthusiastically helped me and my husband to take a photo. , I also sent a beautiful postcard when I checked out and left. If you want to take a photo in front of the hotel, there will be very caring staff to help you ”stop” the guests entering and leaving the hotel, and help you take a beautiful photo~~It's really heartwarming. As for their cooking. If you want to experience one night and two food, Yuan Naigu really won't let you down. The level of Michelin three-star, good-looking, delicious and good shooting~ I want to experience it again with the reviews~ I really miss the very warm bed and the warmth on the pillow Heart thousand paper cranes. My husband also said that next time we come, we will stay here again~~It's really great~ Let a person who doesn't write very much reviews so much~~ The only downside is: check out at ten o’clock~~ I really want to stay a little longer~~~ There are too many pictures, everyone will take a look.

I had a great night at this place with my friends and siblings. All the staff took good care of us and tried to communicate with us even though we don't speak much Japanese. They were friendly and made us feel welcome, doing lovely little touches like wiping the wheels of our suitcase when we came in. They took the time to teach us how to put on our yukata while we were questioning, and the room itself was just the right temperature and amenities. On the last day, they also gave us cute and functional wallets, which we still use even though we left Japan.

Hotel Yuraku Kyo-Yasaka

Higashiyama Kyoto|0.14km from Gesshin-in Temple
We stayed 3 nights at DoubleB room on 3rd floor. Room: Much larger than we thought. Luggage area with dressers, separate toilet with sink by the entry room, huge king size bed and love sofa next to the bed. Bathroom is very luxurious and tons of amenities (face mask, facial toner, hair band, cotton but NO shower cap-beware). Separate large tub with natural stone was deep and large enough for 2 ppl, separate handheld shower and rain shower with treetop views from win and large. almost feel like outdoor bath. Room was unexpectedly nice and large. Breakfast: Amazing kaiseki breakfast and this was unexpected with all fresh cooked rice, fish, eggs, and nabe. Lounge area: Free coffee/teas throughout the day and free wine/whiskey from 5-7pm. Very good tea selections (Hojicha, Green tea, Camomille tea, Orange tea, Earl Grey) and several kind of juice available, which was unexpected too. Staff: Check in was at the lounge individually while you are sitting in the lounge area. Hotel lady gave us wet towels and welcome tea and sweets, very nice touch. Staff was very personable and kind, very personable. Location: Steps to Kodaiji and it's around the corner of Nene road which leads to Kiyomizu. Steps to Yasaka Jinjya and Shijo, amazing location. I got the great rates (I reserved 3 months before hotel opened in 12/2022) : I will be afraid rates will go much higher when I return. This hotel should be ranked top #1 in the area soon. This location is amazing for people who is coming with car (has parking), or people who'd enjoy serene walking in the mountain side of Kyoto. It'll takes about 13 min to Shijo/Gion area where buses and subway station are located. It contains some hills so I would not recommended for people who is not good with walking. We loved this hotel and walked around this beautiful Gion/Kiyomizu area, hoping to come back soon!
