Top Kyoto Aquarium Hotel Reviews

Rihga Gran Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel overall is amazing. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are spacious and have everything you need. Love the fact that has laundry in the hotel."

Oriental Hotel Kyoto Rokujo

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, lovely amenities, very nice room (we went for the higher value room). The hotel gives excellent value for money. It is located centrally, so has a number of tourist attractions within walking distance (eg the Kyoto Tower, number of gorgeous temples, interesting bazaars etc). There are many restaurants within 5 minutes walking distance and all are very good quality. The beauty of Kyoto is that it’s on a human scale, so even in the city centre there are small quiet roads, normal houses etc. You get to enjoy all this staying in this hotel. The staff are nice, but apart from one or two (eg Sano at reception) their English makes communication a little challenging at times. The on site amenities eg washer dryer (for a nominal fee) and microwave makes life easier. The lounge area with free hot and cold drinks is always good after returning from a lot of walking. There are many access points to public transport (buses in particular, but also the tube) with excellent connections to sights and shopping areas. The fares are very reasonable, but the occasional taxi ride what cost you much either, as it’s a small city and the hotel’s location is so central. We didn’t try their breakfast, because we prefer just a light meal in the morning, but they provide Japanese and western style breakfast options, for a reasonable price. I’d recommend this hotel anytime for a short or long stay (we were there for 7 days)."

RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Good size room, staff were great and helpful, added bonus of a courtesy bus to Kyoto station. Great location. Bathrooms were old and dated, pillows not great had to buy a pillow from the shop"

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"Had an amazing stay! The hotel was centrally located and very clean."

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean and large by Japan standards. We feel the room was as big or bigger than American rooms. Staff was courteous and polite. Super close to the train station and shopping is also minutes away. The room has been modernized so there are many electrical outlets and usb ports. Highly recommended"

APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori

10/10 Excellent

"Travelled with my wife for the first time to Japan; for the price, we were impressed. Room felt a little crammed at times but was manageable. Staff was extremely friendly and ensured we were comfortable. Room had air conditioning and the bed/pillows were more comfortable than my own. Close to Kyoto Station which saved us time and energy which you would need to travel any places you planned to visit/hike. Would stay here again."

Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"I had a great time here. This is one of the best hotels I have ever stayed at. The room was clean, and the breakfast was good. Everything was great. I’ll definitely stay here again"

Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

10/10 Excellent

"Accommodation with half board option is a must without consideration. It takes our the needs to worry about where to eat for breakfast and dinner, then you can skip lunch for more time with site visits. The public bath is nice and clean. Staff are friendly."

Hotel Keihan Kyotoeki Minami

8/10 Good

"Good location across from train station. Breakfast was okay, beds comfortable."
