"We had an exceptional experience at the Garrya Nijo Castle hotel.

The location is convenient to public transit, and it’s proximity to the core of Kyoto meant we were only a 10 to 20 minute transit ride from almost anything we wanted to do or see in Kyoto."

Top Nijō Castle Hotel Reviews

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"Very good stay"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

8/10 Good

"This hotel was mainly for the location, and the location is awesome for shopping. The room and hotel itself were okay. The rooms are a little outdated, and the beds had a few minor stains on the blankets, nothing that was terrible (all of our group had some kind of stain on the blankets in every room) but definitely made an impact on our visit to the hotel. The premium lounge is awesome, but located directly next to a smoking area, and was often just filled with smoke, which made it so we never went. Again the location is 100% worth it, and if you just want to use it as we did as a place to sleep while shopping in Kyoto, then its awesome."

Hotel Monterey Kyoto

8/10 Good

"We booked a room for three people but we only have two beds in our room. The hotel realized they had made a mistake the next day and the hotel manager came and apologized to us and offer to add an extra bed for the remainder of our stay, which we appreciated, but this did not fully address the inconvenience coused by their mistake. We believe the hotel should have offered some form of compensation, such as complimentary breakfast or a discount on our stay, to acknowledge the inconvenience. We expected better service and attention to detail, especially since our booking clearly stated that the room was for three people. We hope the hotel will improve its booking arrangements and customer service to prevent similar situations from happening to other guests. And also, we have communicating problem with the manager because he only speak Japanese. Although he tried to use a translation device but it doesn't help. He was a bit impatient after a few attempts. Overall the hotel is good, and we had a pleasant stay. The front desk staff is very friendly to help us checked into the hotel. The staff was very helpful for transporting our luggage to another hotel. And good service for storing our remainder luggage after checked out."

"Just finished a 5 night stay at the Ace Hotel in Kyoto, absolutely beautiful hotel with fantastic staff all round.

Great location as only a 2 min walk to the nearest metro station."
