Top Otsu Hotel Reviews

RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"This was a great property with large American style rooms. The buffet had enough breakfast options for everyone traveling with our group. Also, the buffet opened early enough where you could eat food and then leave for your tour. The staff were wonderful. The hotel was clean and it was conveniently located at 12 minute walk from the train station or about ¥600 taxi ride."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay here! The check in was easy and the staff spoke English and walked you through the whole thing, which was extremely helpful. They also have buttons you push each day to let them know if you need your toiletries and towels replaced, your room cleaned, or nothing. The laundry was also extremely convenient (free washers and coin dryers for 100 yen). The bed is very hard, which is typical for Japan, but messed our backs up since we aren’t used to it. The pillows are also the hardest and flattest pillows I’ve ever had, but we were able to ask for softer ones that were a lot better at the front desk. The room was very spacious (Queen) by Japan standards. Location was great, a 10 minute walk to Kyoto station and lots of food nearby. The buffet breakfast was great and the line system was smooth. The onsen was also nice, though I really wish the womens had a cold bath like the men’s to cool off in between baths. Overall a great experience and would stay here again!"

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"In love with the property & will definitely return next time I’m in Kyoto!!!! Conveniently located in Gion District (15 minute walk) and super close to bus stop. Staff were soooo friendly and helped me with luggage forwarding. Rooms were clean, comfortable and had everything I could have needed. Also, If you’re into ceramics, visit the shop right next door!"

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

6/10 Okay

"Our 1st room was great until we stepped on wet carpet that smelled like urine (huge area). Assuming pet (I hope). They wanted to dry it and have me star in that room! NO! Finally got another room. They give 3 coffees in room. After we finished I wanted more, I was told there was a charge. NOPE, I go get some elsewhere and ask for housekeeping to restock for next day. 2 ppl later get back to the room - no coffee refills or amenities- which they charge daily for. Took 3 ppl to get that finally. We go down to one of the restaurants to eat, and hostess shakes her finger at me and told us we could not eat there. No reason, just us!! As Americans we did get turned away numerous times, but the hotel I paid to stay in, especially 1 with a bar and restaurants. We checked out early. - and they will only reimburse the amenities we didn’t use!!!! Hard NO and warning to other travelers"

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

8/10 Good

"We had a lovely stay at the Kyoto Brighton Hotel. Located north of the main city center, it offers a wonderful, quieter escape, though you should expect to take a taxi to get to the main train station and most major sightseeing hubs. For us, the location's unique perks far outweighed the distance: Historic Walkability: Nijo Castle (Kyoto Castle) is well within walking distance and made for a fantastic, highly enjoyable excursion. Local Neighborhood Vibe: We absolutely loved walking around the immediate neighborhood. It feels authentic and local, yet remains incredibly convenient. Within a short walk, we found a great grocery store, several 7-Eleven locations, and a very handy coin-operated laundry. The Best Part: The hotel is an easy, beautiful walk to the expansive Kyoto Imperial Palace park grounds. One minor downside to note: Be careful with your physical room keys! The hotel will charge you a fee if you lose them or if you want to keep one as a souvenir. Overall, if you don't mind relying on taxis to venture further out, the Brighton offers a peaceful, authentic, and highly comfortable base for exploring Kyoto."
