We booked a triple room, and with three beds, the room was quite compact, but we could still fit our luggage. The hotel is a bit of a distance from the station, but there are two buses an hour to Kyoto Station, which is very convenient, and the location is easy to find. For breakfast, there are two restaurants to choose from. The Japanese one offers a set meal, so we ate at the Western restaurant all three days, which basically met our needs.

Waking on the cloudWe stayed here for a family trip over Children's Day in May. Banyan Tree is such a renowned brand even in Korea, so I had high expectations when I booked our stay.
However, we were hoping for a mountain view, but instead, we got a cemetery view – and on a dark, rainy night, it was quite enough to give us nightmares. If you're looking for a relaxing experience, like soaking in a Japanese cypress (hinoki) bathtub, you'll be satisfied, but I have to say the view was extremely disappointing.
On the positive side, the Japanese tatami room vibe was very pleasing, and the aroma oil program at the spa was really interesting.

WohewodejiarenKyoto Global Hotel Karasuma definitely has its pros and cons. To be honest, the cleanliness in the guest rooms could use some improvement; the dust in the corners and hair in the bathroom are a bit off-putting. However, beyond that, the value for money is absolutely incredible.
The breakfast is a hearty Japanese set meal, and for dinner, you get to choose between a rice or noodle set. All this for a 200-yen room rate, including two meals – I don't know any other place that can beat that! The most impressive part is the large communal bathhouse with a sauna. Soaking in the hot water, which feels just like a natural hot spring, instantly melts away all your travel fatigue. The location is also fantastic; the Karasuma line is just a two- or three-minute walk away, making it convenient to get to Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Arashiyama.
If you don't mind a few minor cleanliness issues, this is absolutely the king of value in Kyoto. I'll definitely choose it again next time I'm in town – because a good soak, a full meal, and a good night's sleep are the truest joys of travel.

nguyen anh duc vnExceptional Stay in Kyoto for the Whole Family!
We had an outstanding stay at Hotel Nikko Princess Kyoto during our family trip. The location is ideal—situated in a quiet neighborhood yet only a short walk from Shijo and Karasuma stations, making it effortless to explore the city's top attractions.
Unlike many typical, compact Japanese hotel rooms, the accommodation here was remarkably spacious, exceptionally clean, and comfortable, giving our family plenty of room to relax after a long day of sightseeing. The amenities were top-notch, and the beds guaranteed a restful night's sleep.
What truly elevated our experience was the hospitality. The staff demonstrated true Japanese Omotenashi—always polite, attentive, and eager to assist with directions and luggage. The breakfast buffet was another highlight, offering a delicious variety of both authentic Japanese dishes and Western options.
We couldn’t have asked for a better home base in Kyoto and would highly recommend it to any family or group visiting the city!

Guest UserThe room was a decent size. I took a twin as the beds are bigger than a single. However, the bed was very uncomfortable unfortunately They have a great coffee machine. Nespresso that was a bonus. I had a great view over the station watching the Shinkansen trains. Easy to walk anywhere shopping mall on either side, easy place to meet my guide for the tour. The person that checked me in on the self machines. Romeo was very nice. All the other staff didn’t speak to you, which was a shame.

Our stay here was absolutely fantastic! The hotel's environment is beautiful, the room was clean and comfortable, and all the staff were incredibly warm and polite. The overall atmosphere was very relaxing, and the attention to detail made us feel right at home. The hot springs and the hotel's scenery, in particular, are definitely worth experiencing; it was such a blessing to be able to truly relax here during our busy trip. My family thoroughly enjoyed this stay, and the overall experience exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely choose to stay here again if we're in the area in the future. Highly recommended!

LongfengmamaxiaochengNestled along the Kamo River's Sanjo area, this modern hotel beautifully blends contemporary design with traditional Japanese aesthetics. I highly recommend the Kamo River rooms!
The riverside rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows offer direct views of the flowing river, and the sunrise and sunset scenery is truly therapeutic.
Inside, there's a public hot spring bath with all the toiletries you need, including skincare samples. The guest rooms feature separate wet and dry areas, and the bathroom fittings are thoughtfully chosen, making for an incredibly comfortable stay.
The location is fantastic. It's just a two-minute walk to Sanjo subway station, making it incredibly convenient to get to Kawaramachi and Nishiki Market. The self-service breakfast offers a good mix of Japanese set meals and Western dishes.
After exploring Kyoto's streets, it's wonderful to return to the hotel for a relaxing soak in the hot spring. This is an outstanding choice for a hotel in the city center, offering excellent overall quality. I'll definitely be back on my next trip to Kyoto. It was a truly delightful four-day stay!

Yongyuande90houConveniently located, spacious rooms, complete dining facilities, good service, but average room cleaning.
We chose this hotel located within Kyoto Station for our leisure trip to Kyoto. Overall, the experience was quite good.
The room was quite large, and despite facing the train station, the sound insulation was excellent; we could barely hear the sound of vehicles. The daily newspaper delivery was a nice traditional service.
For breakfast, there's a buffet restaurant on the 2nd floor and a Japanese set meal on the 3rd floor. We stayed for 3 nights and tried both, each with its unique characteristics. The Japanese breakfast didn't have a huge variety of dishes, but there were three options for rice, and the ritual of cooking the rice on-site was very impressive.
Room cleaning was a bit subpar. There were obvious stains on the carpet, and I'm not sure if they couldn't be cleaned or for what reason (Picture 2), but it was unpleasant to look at. A bottle cap left by the previous guest was also not cleaned up (Picture 3), which is unacceptable.
When checking out, after paying the taxes, the front desk attendant handed the bill directly to us without an envelope, which felt unprofessional and unfriendly.

This onsen hotel in Kyoto was a delightful find. It's just one stop from Kyoto Station, and only 200 meters from the exit, making it super convenient. As a traditional Japanese onsen hotel, guests can enjoy complimentary access to both public and private hot spring baths, available 24 hours a day. They even offer complimentary ramen as a late-night snack after 9 PM, which is a lovely touch. There's a 7-Eleven right outside and a bus stop nearby, making it easy to get around and explore areas like Kawaramachi for shopping and dining. Highly recommended, I'd definitely stay here again.

Guest UserThis is a hot spring hotel, and hotels in Kyoto are generally quite expensive. However, this hot spring hotel wasn't significantly pricier than others, so it felt like a pretty good deal. All the hot spring rooms are traditional tatami style. Downstairs, there are several hot spring baths to choose from. They also offer ramen and all-you-can-drink after 10 PM, as well as a buffet breakfast the next morning. After a bath, there are automatic massage chairs in the hallway. I used them several times. It felt like I got a full massage after my bath, saving me the cost of a separate massage. I felt completely rejuvenated!
