Top Tale of Genji Museum Hotel Reviews

Stay SAKURA Kyoto Fuga

10/10 Excellent

"Nice room for the price, everything was perfect."

Daiwa Roynet Hotel Kyoto Hachijoguchi

8/10 Good

"We loved the location of this hotel. Just south of Kyoto Station, which let us explore the region at ease. There were tons of restaurants nearby (close to the hotel, and near the Station). The room was actually quite spacious! (Especially compared the the hotel we had in Tokyo.) The two twin beds, while individually quite small, could be pushed together and make enough room for a family of 4 (two adults, two children under age 7). Amenities were nice (available in the lobby, some available for rent for free). As well, staff were all kind and helpful, particularly the breakfast staff. We were pleased with this hotel! Only a couple of cons. We paid to have breakfast included and while we really liked it the first day, after a 6 night stay it started to get old as none of the food was changed, but we have come to expect this after our trip to Japan. Consider trying the breakfast for a few days but don't depend on it for a long trip. The staff at breakfast was wonderful, however! My biggest complaint is the room did not offer a nice view (facing south, lower floor) but the opposite side seemed to have a glimpse of a nice view featuring buildings, temples an greenery/mountains in the background. We should have asked for a better view but were staying with friends in a nearby room. And finally, the hotel did have more of a corporate/business feel and we would probably want to stay somewhere with more personality and more 'traditional' if staying in Kyoto in the future."

RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Nice breakfast with a revolving view plus can’t beat the shuttle service from the station"

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were really friendly, and the hotel + amenities were very enjoyable."

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend this hotel. The location is ideal, since it’s across the street from Kyoto Station. The breakfast is incredible with various options, including continental and traditional Japanese foods. The location also has a public onsen bath, making it the perfect Kyoto experience."

Randor Residential Hotel Kyoto Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Our travel plans changed suddenly and were in a need of a last minute stay. Great location at a great price."

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Large hotel. Everything okay. Only issue is during check in, front desk was not busy with 3 to 4 staff standing by doing nothing but will not check us in. Asked to use self service. Self serve did not work. Ended back at front desk and finally got checked in. Not very courteous and quite frankly rude not willing to help us first time. Most hotel check you in willingly with a smile."

HOTEL ELCIENT KYOTO HACHIJOGUCHI

Rihga Gran Kyoto

8/10 Good

"We travel as a small group. The rooms were clean but a bit of moldy smell. However the dehumidifier was in the room so it was helpful. Great breakfast and coffee is available all day and night. The hotel was a bit far from main attractions. The staff was very nice and helpful and big plus laundry room in the building and across the street"
