RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, not too far from the train station, but because of the heat, it was a bit unbearable to walk with luggages. They actually provide a shuttle from the train station to the hotel, which we found out after the fact. The hotel is very nice and had a modern feel to it. My favorite was their breakfast. We had a choice to either go to the buffet, which had amazing selections of both International and Japanese food or go to the rotating restaurant with amazing view that serves international breakfast. We tried both during our stay and loved it very much. I would go back and stay there again."
