Kyoto Crystal Hotel Ⅲ

Kyoto Crystal Hotel Ⅲ

Kyoto Station
I had a great deal on this hotel and was very happy with my choice. The room was super clean and more spacious than I expected. No closet for your clothes, though. there is one drawer next to the bed, for some small stuff. Two electricity sockets and 2 usb inlets per bed. The beds were very comfy! Shower and bath were perfect. Reception was very accommodating. The room has a water heater and fridge. Couple of things notable: Station Tokyo is a 10 minutes walk, if you walk briskly. I thought the station was closer by, so that was a misconception on my part. Breakfast is very Japanese: many choices, but definitely not for vegetarians. I was glad our neighbors spent their evenings talking and not much else, because we could hear them talk, the walls were that thin. No safe in the room. All in all, I would personally choose an hotel nearer to the station, but if you don't mind the walk, the price and quality of the hotel couldn't be better, that's why 4 stars.

Kyoto Gosyo/Karasuma
The hotel is very close to the subway station, just 4 turns away. There is Daimaru Department Store and Nintendo Store nearby for shopping. You can basically find everything you want. The hotel has a hot spring which is very comfortable😌

I was pretty worried at the beginning of the review, but it was really okay, right next to Kamogawa, there are a lot of restaurants in a row, the quiet side of the road is good, I like it. The room was clean, the windows opened well and the room was relatively large. We will ask for reservations if we are late for breakfast. The disadvantage is that it is quite far from the subway and attractions. It is just in the middle of Dijo Shijo Station and Gojo, which is more suitable for leisure travel partners.

Kyoto Station
Hotel is situated in a good location. Just opposite of Kyoto station. I recommend to go there via the station’s main exit, rather than the underground exit. The exit via underground is A5, but can be difficult to locate for the first time. Amenities are basic, nothing fancy or extra. It’s a self check in/out hotel, although they do have staff on call if needed. The doors are all electronic using a passcode, so might be a bit of a challenge for elderly people to operate if not used to. Overall, a very nice hotel. Highly recommend if you need to get around in Kyoto using the public transport.

Kyoto Station
Widespread Ryokan hotel, need to check in at another place, a hotel 5 minutes by taxi who pay them. Very nice huge rooms and very comfortable beds and futons. The big problem may be the location, but that's a problem in Kyoto which has a poor subway system!

Tips for Selecting a 4 Star Hotel in Kyoto

Introduction to Kyoto

As the former imperial capital of Japan, Kyoto effortlessly blends the old with the new. This city in the Kansai region is renowned for its well-preserved temples, stunning gardens, traditional teahouses, and the historic geisha district of Gion.

Tips for Travelling to Kyoto

Travelers usually fly into Kansai International Airport or Osaka Itami Airport before making their way to Kyoto by train or bus. The city has an efficient network of buses and trains, including a subway system.

The official currency is the Japanese Yen (JPY). Credit cards are accepted in many places, but cash is still commonly used. Japanese is the primary language spoken, though English is understood in many tourist areas.

Visa policies vary based on nationality and duration of stay, so it is advisable to check prior to your visit.

Popular Attractions in Kyoto

Kyoto is home to an array of UNESCO World Heritage Sites including Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Wander around the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, or take a walk through the historic streets of Gion.

Don't forget to visit Nijo Castle and the Philosopher's Path, especially during cherry blossom season.

Weather, Best Time to Visit, and What to Wear

Kyoto experiences four distinct seasons: humid summers, chilly winters, and mild springs and autumns. The city is particularly popular during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November) when cherry blossoms and autumn leaves transform the landscape.

Given the varied climate, clothing should be season appropriate. Comfortable shoes are essential for temple hopping.

Choosing Your Ideal Hotel in Kyoto

For a luxury stay, consider the Ritz-Carlton Kyoto or the Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto. Budget travelers might opt for Piece Hostel Sanjo, known for its great location and friendly staff.
