THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staffs were helpful and friendly! Breakfast has a lot of choices and the restaurant serve great lunch and dinner with reasonable price!"

Hyatt Regency Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Hyatt Regency Kyoto. The exceptional service stood out most. During my stay, I accidentally left my passport and IDs at the hotel bar. After I contacted the front desk, they quickly retrieved them and placed them securely in my room, which I greatly appreciated. I was initially unsure about being assigned a Garden Level (B1) room, but it became one of my favorite aspects of the stay. Located beside the hotel's Zen rock garden, it was a pleasure to open the windows each morning and enjoy a coffee overlooking the tranquil setting. I also appreciated the room's Japandi-inspired design. The blend of Japanese and Scandinavian influences felt elegant, modern, and relaxing. The only notable drawback was the bathroom layout. The vanity and shower areas were open to the room with limited privacy. The toilet was enclosed behind a self-closing sliding door but lacked a lock. This wasn't a major issue for me, but it may be a consideration for those sharing a room. Overall, Hyatt Regency Kyoto delivered an excellent experience with beautiful design, a serene atmosphere, and outstanding service. I would gladly stay here again on a future visit to Kyoto."

Kyoto Granbell Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay at Kyoto Granbell Hotel. Amazing location, main tourist attractions, bars, coffee, restaurants, public transportation, Kamo River, all easily accessible from Granbell. Staff was amazing and incredibly helpful, they arranged our luggage forwarding to Tokyo as we did not want to bring all our stuff one night to Hakone. Room was incredibly comfortable and quiet, the bathroom with tub was amazing, beds and small table with chairs made it great for a three night stay. We did not have breakfast or visit the bar but they looked great. Loved the self service coffee machine in lobby, snacks were a hit too. Filtered water machine was a great amenity as well. Unfortunately did not have time to enjoy the public onsen but heard they were fantastic. Hope to return and will be suggesting Granbell Hotel Kyoto to others!"
