Romantic Hotels in Kyoto

"Very good hotel, and very good onsen. The room is a little bit small as all rooms in Japan, but the location is very useful. Also has a huge supermarket near the hotel which was so practical some days to get dinner or breakfast. Also they have a bike renting service, which we used one day and was very good price."

"This hotel was truly a highlight of my trip to Kyoto! I booked it right before the Dragon Boat Festival, and the value for money was excellent. As it's an economy hotel, they don't clean every day; for my five-night stay, I had one full room cleaning midway through. However, towels were replaced daily, and the mattress was incredibly soft. The air conditioning and humidifier made for a very comfortable stay. The Kyoto accommodation tax of 2000 JPY is collected at the front desk. You can pick up complimentary toiletries from the front desk as well. The location is fantastic, just a 5-minute walk from Shijo-Omiya JR station. There's also a bus stop right in front of the hotel, making getting around super convenient. Plus, there are several convenience stores nearby."

"The room was spacious, and the hot spring was wonderfully uncrowded and relaxing. Everything was very clean. There's free ice cream in the lobby, which was a nice treat after a hot spring soak! The hotel is conveniently located near tourist attractions, and it's about a ten-minute walk from Kintetsu Nara Station. The service was excellent, and there's free coffee and tea bags available in the lobby. The only downside was that the room wasn't very warm. In winter, cold air seeped in near the windows, and even with the air conditioning set to 30 degrees, it still felt a bit chilly."

"The location is super convenient, right next to Shijo Station Exit 19, making shopping easy and close to bus stops. It has a microwave and washing machine; it would be even better if the washing machine was a washer-dryer combo. The triple room isn't cramped at all, and it's rare to find one with three stools. There's enough space to fully open luggage, though it might make moving around a bit tight. The best surprise was the dry/wet separation in the bathroom – it's uncommon to find a shower that isn't over a bathtub. Daily cleaning isn't provided; there's no service sign. You leave trash and used towels outside the door, and pick up fresh ones and water from the front desk. Overall, considering the location and room size, it's excellent value for money."

"The room was quite spacious, big enough to accommodate large luggage. There's a 7-Eleven downstairs, and a Sukiya nearby which is pretty good, similar to Yoshinoya. It's close to the subway station, but unfortunately, the nearest exit doesn't have an escalator. If you have luggage, you'll need to use another exit, which is a bit further and requires crossing the street. I specifically chose this hotel because I thought it was very close to the Kyoto Gion Festival route, making it convenient to just go downstairs to watch. It truly was very close, and near the festival's endpoint, so it was perfect for catching the midday events."

"It was pretty good. They gave us three beds for three people. It's a shame the room was at the very end of the hallway. You have to pick up toothbrushes and such near the front desk. The hotel's location isn't too hard to find, but it's in the middle of a residential area, so you have to walk a bit through an alley. The front desk staff spoke excellent and fluent English. Self-check-in is available, but you need to pay the accommodation fee upon arrival."

"This was one of the low key place where it is located after crossing Nara train station. Convenient. Staff was welcoming, allow to leave luggage before check in time. The whole hotel has tatami flooring, you need to go to locker leave your shoes in there, throughout the stay. In the room they gave you a bag, socks to wear around hotel and towels to use in public onsen. It was a great experience and dipping in hot pool after long day walk. Most families guests, and they allow older kids accompanied with parent of same gender. But those parent don't know how to control kids should respect the other guests. I have kid myself and try to be respectful. Since after onsen they wan to give cooling down so they have free flow ice cream afternoon to night. And probiotic drink morning. They have a massage chair and if it is peak season proly all these will be in queue. But I went on weekday and end of May so it was quite nice. Not too busy. I didnt pick hotel breakfast as I always wake up late lol. Oh and supper 9pm or 930pm onward they provide ramen and it was real nice after a long day and after onsen, hearty hot ramen soup and green tea to end the night. The experience they provide part of the stay is really fantastic!"
