Top Yasaka Shrine Hotel Reviews

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was awesome! Friendly and helpful staff. The onsen was a nice experience. The room was large for a Japan hotel. The only room for improvement feedback I have is to have them have more washer and dryer machines. I had to wait 50 minutes just to get a washer. The dryer setting on the first cycle doesn’t dry clothes so two other people in front of me had to do another dry cycle. I also had to do an extra dry cycle. It was a little ridiculous having to wait so long to do some laundry. I think there could be a better system or more machines for guests. The location was perfect! Right next to a train and subway station which made it super easy to get around to all of our destinations. There is also tons of shopping and wonderful restaurants in walking distance. Overall, this was our favorite place that we stayed at on our trip. It was very nice!!"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Kabuki room decor is awesome! Location is very convenient. The facial amenities already provided in room were very much appreciated. Although laundry machines are available, I would discourage use of dryer due to its limited (1/2 load) capacity. Overall, our stay was excellent!"

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing amenities of hot spring and ramen bar late night options. Its trendy japanese tatami style room which make it fun to experience."

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is fantastic, right in the heart of Kyoto, with so many beautiful places and things to see and enjoy nearby. The staff were lovely, friendly, and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. Our room was also in great condition, clean, comfortable, and very well maintained. We’d happily stay here again when we’re back in Kyoto."

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Super nice. Close to the station and everything is nearby."

APA Hotel Kyoto Gion EXCELLENT

8/10 Good

"Comfortable bed. Clean room. You have to step up into the bathroom and down to get out which could be a problem if you have knee issues. Location is good. Breakfast was priced high for the selection. We didn’t take it for the second morning. We were able to sleep with our window open which was good because we did not have control of the AC, and it cooled down enough at night that the outside air came in."

SOWAKA

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was amazing"

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Great location!"

Kyoto Granbell Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The whole end of the room was the bed so you had to climb up it… but that wasn’t bad, just odd. The breakfast is really good and the hotel is in a great location for all the sites, and transport to Osaka"
