It is my second in Kyoto, and I stayed both times in this hotel - this proves that this is really nice hotel.
The room is spacious compared to other hotels I stayed im Japan, facilities are great, staffs are friendly. We tried the breakfast and dinner at the bar, the breakfast has quite limited selections but th quality was great. Dinner was a little disappointing for the price, but overall still a good experience.

More than 5 times to stayed in this hotel. Everything is perfect. It’s just 5-8 minutes walk from Kyoto JR station. The Onsen is perfect. You can enjoy Onsen overnight until next day morning, so if you come back late you can still enjoy the Onsen. Free ramen offered from 21:00-23:00, which is very delicious, and the hotel breakfast is Perfect too. There is Sashimi Bowl.
Room is clean as always and this time the view is very good we can see Kyoto Tower.
The staff in this hotel can speak very good English, and very nice and helpful.

The room was quite spacious for Japan, easily accommodating two 28-inch suitcases laid out. It was clean and tidy. I booked a premium room which had a fresh air ventilation system, so the room never felt stuffy. The receptionist was polite and courteous, and English communication was no problem. Check-in was quick and easy, and they even held my package deliveries securely. Breakfast was good, with both Japanese and Western options, and for Chinese, there were mini meat buns or siu mai, and one day they even had congee. The closest Hankyu Omiya Station is just a 5-minute walk away, making it super convenient to get to Osaka. Daimaru and Takashimaya department stores are also within walking distance. The lobby offers complimentary coffee and tea, and there's a large public bath on the second floor. For this price, it's truly a rare find and highly recommended!

I absolutely adored the Mitsui Garden Hotel Premier Kyoto. First off, the hotel's design is stunning; both the restaurant and lobby offer breathtaking views of the central garden through floor-to-ceiling windows, where branches sway gracefully in the breeze – it's simply beautiful. Secondly, I was thoroughly impressed by the in-room washing machine, the Refa hairdryer, and the showerhead! I truly hope I can stay here every time I visit Kyoto in the future.

Excellent place to stay. Free public bath spa in the hotel.
Plus: PJs and extra toiletries like makeup remover, cotton pads provided.
Lunch: Good lunch buffet with homemade tofu. Value for money.
Laundry: Coin machine at 400 yen a cycle. Good value.
Venue: Walking distance to huge local supermarket, pharmacy and a nearby neighbourhood mall, BIV. Near the world heritage Nijio Castle. Bus stop just outside. Feels safe in coming back late as the hotel is just next to the main road.

The hotel is conveniently located between Gojo and Shijo subway stations, slightly closer to Gojo. However, these two stations are quite close anyway, so walking to either is perfectly acceptable. A taxi to Kyoto Station costs around 2000 JPY. The hotel itself is clean and tidy, and the front desk staff speak fluent English, making communication a breeze. Both check-in and check-out were very efficient. The comfortable twin room features a wet and dry separation in the bathroom, which makes toiletries more convenient and reduces disturbance. The soundproofing of the windows is excellent; you can barely hear any outside noise, though an occasional siren is unavoidable. The room was cleaned daily, and amenities were well-stocked. The only slight letdown was the breakfast; while the quality was good, it was exactly the same for four consecutive days. More variety would have been a definite improvement.

Absolutely loved this hotel! The interiors are stunning and rooms are spacious and well decorated with ample amenities. The staff is very warm and welcoming. The breakfast spread was the best I’ve had in Japan … includes very good ala carte options as well.
Would definitely recommend to all visiting Kyoto.

Overall, I'm quite satisfied, although the 21 sq meter room wasn't as spacious as I'd imagined. The location is relatively quiet, with a Lawson and McDonald's downstairs, and Higashiyama Station is just a 3-minute walk away. Plus, the hotel offers a bus service to Kyoto Station, departing at 55 minutes past the hour and returning at 25 minutes past.

The biggest advantage of Hotel Gajoen Tokyo is definitely its location. Beyond its prime spot in the city center, there's a direct walkway from the hotel's third floor straight to Takashimaya. You can walk along the green passage into the mall, turn a corner, and be at Din Tai Fung – it's incredibly convenient. This stay, I specifically booked a corner room to experience the lounge. The room was spacious, and the bathroom had a great four-piece layout. The large windows let in plenty of light, and catching a glimpse of the beautiful Higashiyama scenery in the distance was a pleasant surprise. The lounge is also on the third floor, so after browsing Takashimaya, it was lovely to just tap my card, go in, and relax with a drink.
The breakfast selection wasn't huge, but most items were high quality. I ate there for three days and didn't get bored. The ham, salmon, and homemade yogurt sauce were all excellent, and the latte was delicious too.
Furthermore, the cleanliness of this popular hotel exceeded my expectations. Daily housekeeping was impeccable, and they didn't compromise on standards under the guise of being eco-friendly, which I really appreciated. Huge thanks to the staff.

Great
IiamnotdelicateThe basic room type isn't in the main building; you have to walk up to the main building each time to have breakfast or soak in the onsen (hot spring). And it's not a real onsen; my friend's superior room was the real onsen. We were given a small room at the back of the hotel, but thankfully there weren't too many graves.
When I asked the staff at the entrance to take photos for me, they were very reluctant and had a sour face. At night, on my way back to my room from my friend's, the receptionist on duty in the lobby was also very rude. Overall, I was dissatisfied with the service.
The facilities are excellent, very new, and the hotel is quite small, but that's typical for Japanese hotels. The decor is also very nice; the aesthetics are on point.
There are at least three cemeteries and a bunch of shrines nearby; bring some amulets if you like.

IIRADAEverything was good except the service in hotel restaurants, which was exceptionally bad:
1) breakfast: waited for food for 40 mins, reminded the server 2 times - still nothing;
2) bar: a too long wait for a cocktail. the server said that as apology said cocktail won’t be in included in the bill… but it was there;
3) afternoon tea: told the staff that I dislike dairy products, but have no allergy. So, for example I can eat most sweets, but not the ones with a strong taste of mascarpone cream. In the end they gave me just a plate of fruit and when I remninded them of the above they… did nothing ) I stayed at this hotel and had afternoon tea there last year too - everything was fine then.
All of the above are 3 different restaurants inside the hotel, so I wouldn’t recommend going to any restaurant there. In all other aspects except services related to food the hotel is good.

GGuest UserThe price doubles and goes up. I have stayed in this hotel many times. It always feels good. I came here again after many years and felt that the overall service and the quality of the food in the hotel were much worse. In particular, the service may be understaffed during the peak season, but it is indeed a very good hotel. Be sure not to make any mistakes when booking a hotel, otherwise he will be unkind and only care about money!

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.
