Northern Kyoto hotel guide. Khaosan hotel in Northern Kyoto, Kyoto

"This was by far the best hotel we stayed at during our entire trip in Japan, and we stayed in quite a few throughout the country. The breakfast was incredible, easily the best of our trip. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere and a fantastic location, within walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. The staff was outstanding, kind, helpful, and professional. Our room was spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with a large, spa-like bathroom that felt luxurious. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Japan. It truly exceeded our expectations in every way."

"Family of four with neighbouring twin rooms. Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Very much a staffed hotel. Rooms and bathroom were clean. Beds were very comfortable. There were cups and kettle in room and tea bags available for self serve at reception along with toothbrush and toiletries although toiletries and washing liquid provided in rooms already. Area was safe and peaceful, walking distance to many sites and metro. Loved the back streets and restaurants, some european options too if desired. Free coffee machine and seating area in lonby was appreciated. We had breakfast included which was a mix of Japanese food and ham and eggs, croissants, toast, jam, yoghurt but 7 - 11 also next door for supplies if needed. Would recommend for anyone."

"Great location with shops and dining options right below the hotel. Rooms were a good size and very clean with a convenient mini sofa and table to allow for a quick snack/meal grabbed from the 7-11 downstairs. A bit of a walk to the nearest metro ~8-10mins."

"Fantastic hotel close to everything. The room was spacious and comfortable. Definitely going to stay again the next time im in Kyoto "
