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."

Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Very well situated near Kyoto station. Friendly and welcoming staff. My room was larger than expected. Clean and well kept. Added bonus of free tea and ice cream in the restaurant area all afternoon and a glass of beer or wine in the evening."

Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

8/10 Good

"Pros: Hotel looks great with tanami flooring throughout. Onsen facilities are great. Cons: Although only 1 stop from Kyoto Station trains are infrequent and often crowded. Also warehouse next door that plays music in the morning at around 9am. Bed is also a bit too firm"
