Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at Hotel Emion. The rooms were very spacious for a family of 4 adults. The room was serviced everyday with fresh towels and bed changes, which was perfect when coming back to the room after a long and busy day sightseeing. Staff were only too pleased to help at any time. Breakfast was delicious, with lots of Japanese and Western style options. The hotel was connected to an overpass which took us straight to the train station which was perfect, or there was also a bus stop just a 2 minute walk away. 7/11 next door was great for easy and cheap meals, drinks or snacks. Highly recommend Hotel Emion!"

Miyako City Kintetsu Kyoto Station

8/10 Good

"The location was terrific even though I got lost in the station. It’s on the other side from the tower side. The room was spacious enough and the robes for lounging were fantastic! I would definitely stay there again. Convenient shops outside that sell food, a small Uniqlo and other handy shops. There are laundry facilities but I found a laundromat just down the street. It’s a good hotel just not the ritz."

Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Traveling with my kids and our stay was great. Like the location of this hotel, it’s just 7 minutes away from the Kyoto Station. The breakfast buffet is very nice. They also have complementary afternoon tea and snack. My kids also enjoyed the free craft event. I would like to stay at this hotel again."
