Kyoto Nanzenji Ryokan Yachiyo
4.1/541 Reviews

Kyoto Nanzenji Ryokan Yachiyo

Okazaki Kyoto|0.28km from Kyoto City Zoo
The room for 3 people with 3 people, the tatami room is awesome, there are old railway tracks not far from the hotel, and there are cherry trees on the side. The cherry blossoms must be beautiful. A few steps from the subway station to the hotel, about 10-15 minutes. You can take a bus to Sensoji Temple at the station next to the zoo. The entire hotel is Japanese-style, with shoes off at the door. It was 10 o'clock before check-in time, so I left the luggage and went to the attractions first. I did n’t care about the luggage. When I returned, at 9 p.m., the clerk had already moved to the room. But I need to check out and store my luggage. It did n’t bring an umbrella when it rained. I super lend us and give them back when I have a good time. The service attitude is really nothing to say
Ryokan Genhouin

Ryokan Genhouin

Ohara/Kibune/Kurama Kyoto|0.33km from Kyoto City Zoo
The hotel is located between the Izumiya Museum and the neighboring museum, close to the Michelin three-star restaurant, Hyotei, and philosophy. It is the most private and abundant indoor location in Kyoto. The hotel has only four rooms. The courtyard is professionally designed, and it is full of Zen no matter from all angles. It is one of the Japanese hotels in Kyoto that I am most satisfied with for the time being. The rooms are modernly decorated and suitable for living. Breakfast is a set meal of the Michelin restaurant Izumi , Recommended for those who like modern and simple Japanese-style hotels
The Westin Miyako Kyoto

The Westin Miyako Kyoto

Kyoto|0.45km from Kyoto City Zoo
Overall, amazing stay at the Miyako Westin Kyoto. Great location (quite central but not in the hectic district of Gion, at the foot of the hills on the east side of the side), stones throw to most restaurants / places of interests. Immediately got upgraded to suite when checking in (Platinum Bonvoy member), great service and hospitality. Suite was beautiful with balcony and great view, 2 member of the reception went up and escorted us to the suite. Food was amazing! Great breakfast spread with Japanese and Western options (the croissants are to die for, probably the best I've ever had!). They also have a Japanese Kaiseki option for a more authentic experience Concierge was super helpful. They managed to book us a table at a 1 michelin star Kaiseki restaurant with one day notice (keep in mind that most places are booked out 1-2 months in advance and the concierge had to call 15+ restaurants to find us a table) There was also an in-house ”Onsen” (Japanese bath house) with over 2000 sqm indoor and outdoor hot pool. Amazing place to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the city. Wonderful stay all in all and a definite stay again for future trips to Kyoto. Highly recommended!
Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei -Age Requirement 12 over-

Hotel Okura Kyoto Okazaki Bettei -Age Requirement 12 over-

Okazaki Kyoto|0.48km from Kyoto City Zoo
The Okura Okazaki Bettie is a beautifully designed modern hotel and was the perfect choice for our combined business/leisure visit to Kyoto. The location was reasonably close (short taxi ride) to excellent restaurants and sights in the culturally historic area east of the river. The guest room quality, cleanliness and comfort is excellent - finished to a high standard with large windows overlooking the garden below and temples beyond. Breakfast was served in the restaurant overlooking the hotel's own zen garden. The choice of either ”Kyoto”or ”American” breakfast was amazing, beautifully presented bento style, exceptionally fresh, plentiful and delicious. Indeed this was one of the best hotel breakfasts ever. Finally the service level is exceptional. Both management and staff did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable and hassle free. Neither the most nor least expensive option in Kyoto - just simple great value. We look forward to returning next time.

Hotel Mastay Jingumichi

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.49km from Kyoto City Zoo
I came with my wife to Kyoto for an over three weeks’ longstay for the fall foliage. We couldn’t have picked a better place!!! The hotel room is bright with both natural lighting and excellent indoor lighting. It is roomy, and the utmost efficient and functional in its setup in every possible way. The location is excellent, with easy access to all kinds of public transportation. It is also within walking distance to restaurants, shops, and many of our favorite temples. At the same time, the hotel is located in an area that is quiet and tranquil, not overly crowded with tourists. The staff was extremely polite and went out of their way to make our stay pleasant. They helped to solve language problems for us with restaurant booking and provided useful advice on where to go for a good meal. The house cleaning was great, with great attention to detail. Overall, we are very satisfied with our stay, and would not hesitate to recommend this place to all our friends.
THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA by Kyoto Tokyu Hotel
4.6/5170 Reviews

THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA by Kyoto Tokyu Hotel

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|0.51km from Kyoto City Zoo
The room has a substantial size, bigger than the usual Japanese hotel, the design is great. The hotel opened in 2022 so everything is new, it has shuttle bus service to and from Kyoto Station 京都駅 every hour which came in quite handy as we spent some time shopping there. You can check the timetable on the hotel’s website. The location is a bit far from the central Kyoto area but there is a lot of enjoyable historic sites surrounding the hotel and the area is quite calm and tranquil. The view from our room looks towards the inner garden of the hotel which is quite nice. There is a mountain at the background as well to add to the natural vibe. Staffs had the usual Japanese mentality, very welcoming and pleasant. There is a subway station near the hotel, about 3-5 minutes walk, but we never got to use it as the convenience of taxi got us every time. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Kyoto Travellers Inn

Okazaki Kyoto|0.26km from Kyoto City Zoo
I went by car, but the parking lot is also on the back side of the building, and I would like to do some sightseeing after checking out, so I was very grateful to hear the question if I could stop. The staff was very friendly and I was able to spend a pleasant time. Is the main building mainly a Western-style room? I think the annex on the back side is mainly Japanese-style rooms. Speaking of which, it was a pity that the underground bath could be taken until midnight but not early in the morning. The location is good, about 10 minutes on foot to Higashiyama Station on the Tozai Subway Line, and you can walk to Nanzenji Temple and Eikando. I would like to use it again.
Heian No Mori Kyoto
3.8/533 Reviews

Heian No Mori Kyoto

Okazaki Kyoto|0.56km from Kyoto City Zoo
Visited in September 2017. It is next to Okazaki Jinja shrine on the north side of Heian Jingu shrine. If the vicinity of Okazaki kaguroya is for travel purposes, it is just right, the bus stop is close, there are supermarkets and convenience stores, and it is convenient. However, if you try to go to other areas, you can use the bus to some extent, or if you are not a car user, you will be very difficult to move. The hotel itself is quite old, but the room is renewed little by little and the interior is brand new. It seemed to be a little chighug renovation, but it is not bad. It is good to feel both nostalgia and newness. The old-fashioned tourist hotel is comfortable with a relaxed construction, complete public bath. There are several direct shuttle buses to Kyoto Station, so you can use it if you schedule it.

M’s Hotel Sanjo Wakoku

Sanjo Kyoto|1km from Kyoto City Zoo
It took us a while to find this hotel. It is situated in the side streets of Kyoto. A bit far from everything. Not much cafes and restaurants are found within the vicinity of this hotel. The check in process is a bit frustrating especially if you’ve traveled far and walked a long while prior to check in. There is no personnel to assist you. No complimentary bottled water. No convenience store nearby which is odd if you are in Japan. The nearest Family Mart is probably 300m away. The room is planned well. There is ample space to walk around despite having 3 luggages. There is a little tub in the bathroom and electronic toilet.

Hotel Wing International Premium Kyoto Sanjo

Sanjo Kyoto|1.01km from Kyoto City Zoo
It was a new hotel, so it was beautiful. Even if it is new, there are many places full of dust, so recently I'm going to clean it myself and bring a bath detergent. I'm glad that's the best! Amenity is substantial. It's an amenity buffet that you can choose near the front desk, so you don't have to choose unnecessary things and don't have to waste. The room has a bath, toilet, and wash basin with ３ independent specifications, so it's easy to use and the breakfast is delicious. I think it's a good hotel to compare the price and service. If this is more expensive, it can't be kind, but ＾＾

CHION-IN WAJUN-KAIKAN

Gion/Kiyomizu Temple Kyoto|1.05km from Kyoto City Zoo
This wonderful place is nothing like the rustic version we stayed at in Yudenaka. It is more like an upscale boutiqe hotel. Only 3 floors, but very well kept. Our room was one of the largest we experienced during the 2 weeks we were in Japan. We chose to decline the meal package as we expected we would be out during the dinner time, and did not want to commit to breakfast, as my wife is a very fussy eater. A public bath for men and a bath for women is located in the basement. Exceptionally clean and properly set up in the shower area and bath area,. I chose to take advantage of the bath each evening. It is so incredibly relaxing. The bath is not heated by thermal springs but whatever they use to heat the building. The front desk staff could not be more helpful during our stay. When a snowstorm hit Kyoto, it meant the shipping company that we chose to forward our large suitcases was no longer viable since the company cancelled all trips that day. When we got up the next morning we discovered that the taxi cab companies were not answering the phones that morning(due to snow and ice). The front desk looked at my wife and I with 4 suitcases, my cane and walker and somehow just knew that we couldnt possibly get to the Kyoto station using public transit. The tall, thin gentleman behind the desk, went outside and ran at his fastest speed, 3 blocks to find a idle taxi, ran back to us, still checking out, took all of our luggage outside to the waiting taxi, assisted with the loading, ensuring that we were safely inside and on our way before he went back inside, hopefully to have a well earned cup of tea. The service is outstanding, the meal to my eyes looked incredible. The rooms have ample space for luggage, fully stocked bathrooms, Yukatas for wearing to the bath and 2 bottles of water daily. They also include a small refrigerator. If I should be so fortunate to visit Japan again in my lifetime, this will be my must stay hotel. THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH CHION-IN WAJUN KAIKAN!!! EXCELLENT STAFF AND OUTSTANING SERVICE. THANK YOU SO MJCH FOR HELPING MAKE THIS DREAM VACATION SO SPECIAL!!!

We stayed overnight for the event at Okazaki Park. It was corresponded to a small number at night, and the front desk tended to be absent, but the response was friendly. Because it was empty, I was able to park the car for free from the morning of the day of the stay to the next day and the evening. The room was clean and had a large TV and was comfortable. However, it was a cold day with rain on the day, so the washroom of the rental open-air bath was cold and rainy, and it trembled. The temperature of the jet bus was hot and hot, so I didn't put it immediately, and it was like a punishment game of the variety program. I would like to receive it again if I have a chance because the dishes seemed good.

It is in a pretty strange place with a one-way street, but if you have a car, there is no problem, and I think the price is cheap and the parking lot is very reasonable in Kyoto with a high parking lot. I used it for one person in business. Because it is a love hotel, the room is large and the bath is large. The woman at the front desk is kind and polite and good impression. I want to use it again next time.

I took advantage of the 2020 fall GO TO and decided to stay here in Kyoto. First of all, the location is good. All the drinks in the refrigerator in the room are free, and you can also drink alcohol, so I got it early. We had dinner at Junsho, which is very close to the street. I still remember that the next morning's meal was delicious and served beautifully, with the white rice served with a wide variety of obanzai. The staff's response was also nice and wonderful.

Okazaki Kyoto|0.39km from Kyoto City Zoo
Loved our stay at Hotel Material! We booked the Mini Room/ Double Room, which was a tad tight for my husband and I, but still plenty comfortable! (We only had carry on’s and backpacks, otherwise it would have been more difficult.) Room: 5/5. Loved the balcony. Street noise can be heard, but it’s not terrible. Super clean. Great amenities. Super comfortable bed! Slept great!! Bathroom: 5/5. Lovely toilet & toilet room. Great shower & shower room. Nice towels & amenities. Staff: 5/5. Great communication prior to checking in, and after checking out. The gentleman (Jeronimo) was super helpful and personable! Such a great guy. The other two individuals I encountered were also nice, but not as great of English (no big deal since I know I’m a foreigner in their country.) The location was great, but expect to walk a lot to get to the prime locations! (4/5) They let us leave our luggage on our check-out day (check-out is at 10 am) to allow us to explore Kyoto more. So nice! (Also there is no breakfast or cafe in the building anymore, as a FYI.) Thank you again so much for a great stay!! Absolutely recommend to everyone for their Kyoto travels! Great value!

Zen Machiya Inn

Okazaki Kyoto|0.41km from Kyoto City Zoo
２ It was an inn I took on a trip with a person. １ Rent out the whole eaves! The first thing was that I was very relaxed without being caught in the simple feeling of a hotel! There are toilets up and downstairs, and the remake of the old folk house felt the old-fashioned taste, soaked in the warmth, and it was very fun. Next time I went to Kyoto, I thought I would use it! ..
