The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto
4.7/546 Reviews

The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto

Kyoto|0.65km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
This Ritz-Carlton location sitting on Kamogawa and Hagashiyama mountains, is one of the best locations to stay in Kyoto. The architecture is gorgeous on every level as you enter the hotel. You feel transported to a particular place that you will never forget. In addition, the quality of service the Ladies and Gentlemen provides goes above and beyond any other Ritz-Carlton location. Staying at the Kamogawa Executive Suite was an unforgettable experience. Approximately 1350 sq. ft., the suite provides luxury accommodations that exceed the highest expectations of any guest. The bathroom is gorgeous, especially the bathtub, where the wall and bathtub are decorated with sakura flowers. The bed is comfortable, and the living room is quite spacious. One thing I would have loved to see inside this room is a Genkan to place shoes as you enter the suite. Preserving the floor and rug is necessary and educates foreign guests about the importance of doing this. Another aspect that I loved about this place was Mizuki. Every morning I visited it for a Japanese-style breakfast, and it was a fantastic experience. In addition, I went to one of their sushi demonstrations and felt that I had a lifetime supply of sushi. Every bite was delicious, and the chef went above and beyond to make every guest feel special. Please make reservations for kaiseki, tempura, teppanyaki, and of course, sushi during your stay in advance. The spa is also a must if you are staying in this location. It is one of my most relaxing experiences, and the facilities are excellent. As you enter the spa, all the details regarding the walk to the counter or attendant, the changing room, and the pool area are planned quite well, so the guest can feel extra special and disconnected from reality. Finally, I must recognize the Ladies and Gentlemen's hard work and dedication at the Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto. Thank Ana and Naoto, for your friendly welcome to the hotel and making things possible during my stay. Chef Tomohiro Goda and his team provided an experience I will never forget at Mizuki. Naoki was friendly and helpful as I researched information. Pablo and Thain were attentive to my needs as I left the hotel and provided a great experience as I checked out. Special thanks to Carlos for leading such a fantastic Ritz-Carlton property in Japan and consideration prior to my stay. This is one of the top Ritz-Carlton properties I have stayed in, out of 25 Ritz-Carlton. I will cherish all the memories that I gained from this place and will make sure to come back in the future.

The transportation is convenient. Exit 3 of Kyoto Shiyakusho Station on the Tozai Subway Line leads directly to the downstairs of the hotel. Although the facilities are not smart enough, they are well maintained and easy to use. The service is particularly good. The Japanese breakfast set menu is exquisite and delicious, and the buffet breakfast has both Japanese and Western styles, as well as Chinese steamed dumplings and siomai. It is very close to Kamogawa. There are many delicious restaurants in nearby Kiyamachi (mainly Western) and Pontocho (mainly Japanese). The restaurant is relatively late. The three nearby commercial streets are also very lively, and most shops close early. The view from the room is great, as is the view from the breakfast restaurant.

Service: Excellent service from hotel staff, spoke English, accommodating, helpful and cheerful. Location : Quiet area, right next to a train station exit, convenient location. It is close to Kyoto Station by taxi ( approx 5-10 mins), located at an intersection and was easy to grab a taxi. It is not located that close to the main Kyoto shopping street, but it's just a peaceful 5-10 minutes walk away from the main stretch of shopping and food areas. Great to explore the quiet side of Kyoto. Lawson mart just opposite, the quiet lane opposite had lots of quaint cafes and bakeries. What a wonderful find just walking through the little lanes opposite. Away from tourists crowds, immersed in local Kyoto city vibes. Room style and space: Room furnishing decor colours were so soothing, stylish pale sage greens, light cream and oak, modern and pleasant , light cream tones. Fantastic huge single beds and pillows, fluffy and clean pillows, huge sofa, strong showers from rain shower in bathroom. Loved every corner in my corner room. Spacious work desk at the corner, perfect for a working business trip. The balcony flanked the entire room length.. absolutely wonderful.. sat outside on the balcony and people watched. Bathroom amenities and products included face and body moisturizers, combs etc, all wrapped in classic stylish Japanese style. Perks: We received daily vouchers which we could use for lounge cocktail hour (free flow great selections of wines, beers, sake, hot drinks etc drinks and snacks) or for high tea set in the lounge area. The lounge area was so cozy. Wonderful vibes. High tea set was amazing, provided by famous patissierie that's located in the hotel lobby. Wonderful chill experience just before we head out for daily dinners. Facilities: We checked out the mist room and onsen.. so clean and stylish. Felt like we were at a W hotel. Overall super fantastic experience, wonderful ambience, rooms were new, stylish and cleanliness was top notch. Property itself is very new and modern. Perfect for solo or couples. Very quiet (some traffic noise, but not a big deal), peaceful neighborhood, chic furnishings. I loved my stay in Nov so much, I will stay again in future. Downside: The rooms face a few offices opposite, windows are not coated with opaque film.. so just be aware and not walk around underdressed in the room in full view of opposite buildings. Windows are definitely see through! Nothing the day curtains can't fix.

Kyoto|1.22km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
The room was very very nice! Don’t mention the 13 square meters shown on the introduction, it should be at least 50 square meters. There are guest rooms, rooms, and bathrooms are separated. The toilet is on the other side. All are covered with bamboo mats. It is very comfortable and clean, and the white socks are not stained with dust. When we arrived, the bath water had already been placed in the pine wooden tub, and everything should be put in a place where we could easily get it. There is a faint woody fragrance in the whole room, which is so healing. The service is very thoughtful and meticulous, even if you don't understand the language, you can also dance and communicate. The most memorable thing is that his food is so delicious, it is the most worthwhile hotel in Kyoto. The proprietress is very kind, and will definitely stay here again

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

Latest booking 24 hrs ago

Located a few minutes walk to the Imperial Palace is this hotel. This area is considered to be a ”quiet zone” so there is a minimal commercial activity. There are very few restaurants and the closest convenience stores are a block or two away. If you ever watched movies like Die Hard or In the Line of Fire, you remember scenes in a hotel with a large indoor atrium with glass elevators. All the room doors face the open atrium. That is exactly what the design of this hotel is like. All the amenities are on the ground floor or below. As for the rooms. For Japan, these rooms are quite large. It would be comfortable for international visitors who are used to larger rooms. The amenities are not branded but of higher quality. There are three areas for parking. Ground level, basement, and outdoor. While checkout is at noon, you get complimentary parking until 3 pm. We choose this hotel for this feature. Allows you to spend the day exploring without worrying about the expensive street parking costs. There is a taxi stand with taxis until about 10 pm. There are five restaurants, be fair warned, all are quite pricy. There are two breakfast options. If you want a traditional Japanese breakfast, you go to the Japanese restaurant Hotaru. If you want a ”western” breakfast, there is a buffet at the Terrace restaurant. We were not interested in seeing the nightlife but wanted to be close to the Imperial Palace and Nijo Castle. This hotel was perfect for our needs. Would recommend without hesitation.

The hot springs are very good, although not the best hot spring experience, but the meeting is very memorable, fully aware of the chef's warm cuisine, there are several very well handled delicious! The hotel is old-fashioned, but very tidy, the room is not very big, but everything is enough, there are snack cookies next to the tea bag, if you like, the shopping department on the first floor can buy. Slippers are old-fashioned, feet are a bit difficult to wear, put disposable two pieces of paper insoles for the guests, but just on the shoes is removable, does not mean that the wear will clean up much, interestingly, you will see the guests left in the corridor these white insoles XD room and bath have Skin care products, even a foot and joints of a cream, but unfortunately shopping department has sold out.

Kyoto|0.47km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
The place is very good. When I go to the hotel where I am going to Bus from Kyoto Station, although there are 10 stops, there is no need to transfer. The fare is 230 yen per person. It is also very convenient to play Kyoto Station from the hotel when you leave, and the fare is less than 2,000 yen. During the period, the hotel’s front desk called the taxis, and they all came in a few minutes. The place is good. If you want to walk, you can walk to the ”Flower Road”, which seems to be about 3 kilometers. The area should be the most lively place in Kyoto. There are many Chinese people, including the northeastern dialect, Sichuan dialect and Hunan dialect. . . Breakfast can be a pity not to eat in your own room :) There are very few soup pools on the first floor, and it seems to be a private one for two days. There is no view outside the hotel and there is no expectation from the resort. . Clean is basic, overall good!

The Chapter Kyoto, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel

Kyoto|0.56km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
I was able to use it on a holiday alone. Because it was a land that I spent four years at a university in Kyoto, there was a land insight and this location was very convenient. However, from people who don't know much about Kyoto, you may feel a little far from downtown Kawaramachi. I walked in the morning 々 I had a morning at the bakery in the hall and wandered around Kawaramachi. The hotel lobby is also nice and smelly. I also use the hotel in Osaka Honmachi in the series, but the lobby and appearance are preferred here. I liked the public bath quite a bit. I was impressed by the quiet and Kyoto atmosphere and the size. Since the view from the room is zero, I can't open the window and feel free. So I thought it would be nice to have a little more price.

Kyoto|0.68km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
When I booked the room, I didn’t indicate that it was an unoccupied hotel. I had to go to another place to check in and get the room card😠, so I couldn’t check in after we arrived at the hotel. It took me a few long-distance calls to ask that this hotel had to go back to Kyoto I went through the check-in procedure next to the station. On the same day, other tenants encountered the same problem as me and could not check in. Oh my God! It cost me 300 yuan for a round-trip taxi. When you check in, you must first receive emails on your mobile phone and fill in a lot of information, but the interface is very poorly designed. When filling in your nationality, you must be in hundreds of countries around the world. Find your nationality in the country, and everyone has to fill it out once. (Not sorted by strokes or English words), the waiter's attitude is very good, but it's useless, she can't help you! Room facilities and sanitation are good. But if you are not a travel expert, it is not recommended to stay.

It is located 10 seconds on foot next to the subway, but it is a little disappointing that it is about 2 stops away from the downtown area. However, there are many restaurants around and it is quiet, so I recommend it. I asked for an unknown tax, but even when I inquired, the staff's English was poor, so I couldn't hear a proper explanation and just paid it (400 yen per night x 3 days). a bit disappointing. Everything else was good. The room is spacious and the bathroom is clean and well cleaned. The cafe on the 1st floor is also cute, so I recommend a visit because the atmosphere is good.

Hotel Monday Kyoto Marutamachi

Kyoto|0.83km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
recently stayed at Hotel Monday Kyoto Marutamachi and overall, I had a good experience. The facility, service, and environment were great, but unfortunately, there was one issue that affected my stay. When I arrived in my room, I noticed that the duvet on the bed had marks on it and was not clean. This was disappointing and made me question the overall cleanliness of the room. However, apart from this issue, everything else was great. The hotel's facilities were modern and well-maintained, and the service provided by the staff was friendly and helpful. The location of the hotel was also very convenient, with easy access to public transport and many tourist attractions. Despite the issue with the dirty duvet, I would recommend Hotel Monday Kyoto Marutamachi to other travelers, as the overall quality of the facility, service, and environment was good. I would suggest that the hotel management pays more attention to the cleanliness of their rooms to ensure that all guests have a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The Screen

Kyoto|0.24km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
We enjoyed our stay at the Screen. The rooms are quite big, as there is a bedroom area and a living space with a big screen. We order dinner and breakfast to the room and they were delicious! We got new slippers every day as well as clean pjs. The hotel isn't too far from the cool area in Kyoto, though a cab is needed. On the negative side, the room is a tad dark, the bathroom doesn't have a shower fan so it takes a while for the mirror to clear up, the restaurant was almost empty but they wouldn't let us sit on a coach to enjoy drinks (we took a cab, though, and went to Bar K6, which was awesome.. state of art drinks!), and the staff, though super nice, didn't have good English. I think it's a very decent option and you get value for the price.

Sakura viewing in Kyoto, it was too late to start, I didn't book a machiya, I chose this Japanese-style hotel with hot springs, and I felt pretty good overall. Although the facilities are old, they are well maintained and the breakfast is not very used. The service staff are all a little old, still dedicated and admired. The only drawback is that it is located in a secluded street and the traffic is not convenient. Fortunately, behind the house is the Kamo River in Kyoto, with cherry blossoms in full bloom, a worthwhile trip!

Super recommended this hotel, the location is not very popular, but in fact it is four or five hundred meters on the side of the subway, very quiet, very convenient to go to Nara, near the direct railway can use the spot coupon, back from the Kiyomizu-dera Temple along the second year It is also just right to walk back to the hotel. In the morning, there is the matchmaker's matcha drink, and the soup can be soaked. The hotel environment is very good, the tatami is also very comfortable, and the breakfast is very delicious.

We recently stayed for four nights in the Tomoya Residence Hotel in Kyoto. We found the accommodation and the friendly and attentive staff were fantastic and just what we were hoping for when we booked. The Tomoya Residence is well situated in a nice part of Kyoto, surrounded by countless restaurants and cafes. It is also nearny to public transport and major attractions including the Nijō Castle and the International Manga Museum. After staying in hotels for a couple of weeks beforehand it was very handy to have our own self contained laundry within our two bedroom Executive Apartment. It was great to have a bit of space to relax and get prepared for our next adventure. Thank you to Tomoya Residence Hotel for a wonderful stay and an excellent base to explore Kyoto from.

We had a delightful few days at this lovely ryokan. Service was super friendly and welcoming. The room was cosy and traditional (futons on floor, with thick, warm duvets). The location is great, just a short walk to a quiet station which will take you to Gion and Pontocho in a few stops. The same train line also links to local routes which will take you to several of the less busy temples. If you are lucky enough to be here for the autumn leaves as we were then you should see Enkoji and Shisen-do (they are next to each other): sublime! Many thanks to Sawaya Honten for a memorable stay in Kyoto.

Resi Stay Nishijin

Kyoto Gosyo/Karasuma Kyoto|2.42km from Kyoto City Library of Historical Documents
We had mixed reviews of this accomodation Pros - was a very large room two small doubles and a bunk perfect for families. Amenities are great with wifi, lots of kitchen utensils, stove, tea and coffee supplied, toothbrushes available, washing machine and tablets are provided with an inbuilt dryer system in the bathroom. Bathroom and shower area was also spacious. Beds are on the okay side but could be softer. The area itself is nice and quiet with a bus stop right out from we utilised every day, supermarket and Lawsons are across the road and you feel very safe. Would recommend for families. Cons - check in is in a different location 20minute taxi away so we had to catch a train to the check in office when arriving in Kyoto from Osaka, then a taxi to the accomodation after this which chewed up a few hours as we had to wait 45min in addition to check in due to busyness of the office. The area is a bit out of the way of everything next time I might consider staying at a different resi stay location closer to sights and facilities like shops etc. All the restaurants in the area seem to not open for breakfast until 11am so we had to have McDonald’s if we didn’t want to cook or travel too far for breakfast as we have a toddler (early riser). Same occurred at dinner time a lot of restaurants didn’t seem to be open the Monday or Tuesday we were there or opened too late for us (we travelled with a four year old). Our last disappointment was resi stay apparently have a strict not noise at night policy however another room partied until about 3am but there is no front desk or after hours phone number to call to complain / get the noise to stop. Was very frustrating as walls were very thin so we didn’t sleep very well. Overall we would stay with Resi Stay again but at another location due to Nishijin being a bit too out of the way for us.

A great stay experience. We lived for 8 days, my wife kept saying, how could it be so clean, it was really spotlessly cleaned every day, and then the landlady was a Taiwanese who came to Japan for 37 years, and her daughter and son helped to take care of the house. The homestay has 3 floors, and there seem to be 3-4 bathrooms and toilets. Anyway, it was quite convenient during our stay. 5 minutes next to Kamogawa, running is so cool. . Also, the transportation is very convenient, and it is convenient to go wherever you go. It is only 20 minutes to Kyoto JR. Highly recommended, it is warmer than the hotel, returning every day is like going home and will not feel cold.

It is close to Kyoto Gyoen and Kyoto University, and a street crossing leads to Kamogawa. The bus stops on 202 and 204 are not far away. There are about 300 convenience stores and many restaurants at the intersection of Heyuancho. The rooms are clean, there are a lot of towels, the cooking utensils are relatively complete, and the bedding is also very good, but the rooms are a bit small, and the twin and double rooms are especially crowded into quadruple rooms. The booking was for a triple room with a balcony marked 25 square meters, but upon entering the door, it was found that the area without a terrace was not enough. Fortunately, the handsome American guy at the front desk quickly changed to a larger one. It was very late. I do n’t need to say anything more ~ After all, I only live for two days, it is very convenient to go in and out, and it is super simple to check out (throw the key in the front desk box).
