Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

Terrace Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here last minute while in Kyoto. Good hospitality, very clean, and amenities at an excellent price. Even includes a terrace. And walking distance to a lot of things to do."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"Pros: - The rooms were spacious compared to most Japanese hotel rooms. It was nice to have a more traditional tatami style room. - The breakfast buffet had an incredible selection to choose from. There’s a bit of a wait depending on when you go, but it goes rather quickly. - Late night unlimited ramen from 9pm-11pm was also a nice touch. We loved being able to eat a light meal after a long day of exploring. - Onsen access is really nice, with massage chairs available for use. And unlimited ice cream every night was also really delicious. Cons: - Having guests take off their shoes at the lobby makes the place smell like feet. It’s pretty gross since it was raining when we were there so it was a mix of wet socks and feet stench. They should at least require that people wear hotel rooms slippers. - The onsen was really dirty from the amount of people that would use the facilities. It was overcrowded and packed during the night time. Overall, I’d stay at this hotel again, but refrain from using public facilities. It’s almost impossible to keep the public areas clean and free of smells since there are so many guests."

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Everything is good"

The Hotel Seiryu Kyoto Kiyomizu

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing property! Loved it so much that I stayed two extra nights. Such a serene respite from frantic movement of tourists just outside the walls of the hotel. I can’t say enough about Hotel Seiryu. I will definitely return soon."
