Shofuen Tours

The actual hotel (not the rooms) was beautiful! Looked very elegant. The rooms on the other hand were outdated and a bit rundown. We had dirty sheets upon check in that had stains on them, the sink clogged up when using it. I do give credit to the staff as they very responsive to address the bed problem immediately but it just left us to wonder what else was not cleaned properly.

his was probably the best hotel of my entire trip to Japan. From the moment I arrived, everything exceeded my expectations. The room was spotless, comfortable, and very well equipped, making it feel like a home away from home. One feature I particularly appreciated was the in-room washing machine, which was incredibly convenient during a longer trip. Being able to do laundry in the room made travelling much easier and added to the overall comfort of the stay. The location was excellent, with easy access to Kyoto's attractions, restaurants, and public transport. The staff were also friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Overall, this hotel offered exceptional value for money and provided everything I needed for a perfect stay in Kyoto. I would not hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city.
