Hotel Granvia Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Our first time in Japan. The accommodation was superb. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The room was kept clean and necessary amenities were provided. The property is conveniently located close to the public transportation, attractions, and shopping area. Should we come back in Kyoto we will definitely stay at this hotel again."

Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Family of 5 (2 adults and 3 kids). We absolutely love this place and would definitely recommend it to others. The hotel is located in front of the train station and a bus stop, which provides easy access to transportation. There is also a 7-Eleven right next to the hotel. They also have several restaurants located on the 2nd floor if you don't want to go out for lunch or dinner, not to mention the large public bath that comes with a sauna room and big hot tubs. The amenities here are the best out of all the places we have stayed in Japan during our 16-day trip!"

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"We had a memorable stay at this hotel. The onsen featured multiple baths such that it never felt crowded even at peak times, and we found the perks like free yakisoba noodles (read: instant noodles), ice cream bars, Yakult yogurt drinks, and self serve coffee options (including matcha lattes, etc which is rare) to be fun and value added. Our triple room had a lot of space and privacy; although ours was sadly on the louder side (mainly from emergency vehicles and motorcycles)as it was on the second floor right above the main entrance. The hotel requests guests to remove and store their shoes at the main entrance which I felt was an interesting and thoughtful concept, but I felt slightly grossed out by seeing a number of guests wander around in bare feet despite being provided socks to wear. Some minor downsides: We went in late May and the hotel was fully occupied, so we found the 4 or 5 massage chairs almost always occupied and the laundry machines being in high demand (compounded by other guests not removing their clothes when done), and a cramped vibe in the common spaces (other than the onsen as mentioned earlier). The hotel is also a bit farther away (5 min extra walking time) from Kyoto Station than some alternatives but I would still consider it to be convenient."

APA Hotel Kyoto Ekihigashi

6/10 Okay

"Location was excellent as it is very close to Kyoto Station. We got a room with a king sized bed and found the bed to be too big for the room - there was literally no way to access the far side of the bed nearest to the window without climbing onto the bed and made me wonder if and how the carpet under the window is vacuumed thoroughly. We also found dried red drip marks in our bathroom door…one can only assume what that was. Bathroom faucet had a frustrating auto-off function that required the water flow to be very strong (almost overflowing) to stay on, otherwise washing hands needed one hand to be holding the tap open at a reasonable flow. No safe was provided in the room. Onsen was a selling point when booking but we found each bath to be very small (4 people would be too many) and crowded even at 10:30pm, and guests have to walk up and down a narrow staircase to access it (as with the laundry area). Front desk staff was friendly but we found communication to be challenging."
