Top Pontocho Alley Hotel Reviews

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"i've booked with this hotel twice already. immediately after my first trip i was adamant that if i came back to kyoto again i had to rebook at this same hotel. the hotel is very close to the subway station and has many convenience stores nearby. it was great having laundry available and the service was very cheap as well. the highlight of this hotel is the onsen there are many different baths. I do wish that the women's bath had an ice bath though as the mens bath did. however the onsen was perfect to decompress after a long day of walking. they have tattoo covers available free of charge as well. they also offer free yakult and ice cream during the day and night respectively. the night time free soba in the cafeteria was also great for a late night bite. their morning breakfast buffet was also amazing so much variety, definitely worth it. overall whenever I'm in kyoto this hotel will be my first choice over other accommodations. from all of my travels this hotel is definitely one of the most memorable accommodations i’ve stayed at. highly recommended."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"I had a great stay at Hotel Solaria. The hotel was clean, modern, and conveniently located near public transportation, shops, and restaurants. The staff were friendly, professional, and always helpful. My room was comfortable, quiet, and well-equipped with everything I needed. The check-in process was smooth, and the overall service exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Hotel Solaria to anyone visiting Japan and would happily stay here again."

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel. Everything was high quality. I loved all the little perks like local coffee beans with our own coffee grinder in the room, free ice cream and snacks downstairs, motorized blackout blinds, traditional Samue (long-sleeved top and pants) for the onsen. Speaking of the onsen, it was beautifully done, a large pool in black stone with wooden sides, a huge window with plants outside, but also private. The staff is great. Sheets and towels were all high quality. The only downside was the noise from the busy street below. The windows look double pane, but they could not keep out all the noise. Despite that, I slept well and would recommend this place heartily."

THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO TAKASEGAWA by HULIC

10/10 Excellent

"Loved this hotel! So many great things to say about this hotel. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, we were very sad to leave. The staff was very kind and helpful. Loved the small snacks and drinks they had in the afternoon. One night they even had marshmallows for us to roast at the fire. The location was perfect!"
