Top Karamon Gate Hotel Reviews

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel conveniently located next to the Kyoto train station. The staff were professional and friendly."

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Did not have coin operated laundry machine, and laundry service was too expensive. Did not have hot bath facility. Big disappointment@"

APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori

10/10 Excellent

"My only complaint was that there were only three washer/dryers in the entire hotel and I had to wake up at 2:00am to wash and dry my clothes when I was already exhausted. Every time I’d check there was a line of people waiting to use them. And it took a few cycles for my clothes to dry although I didn’t wash much."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing hotel! So clean and spacious with a great coffee shop and rooftop bar. Super close to kiyomizu & nannenzaka. Loved our stay - thank you!"

Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing and tranquil! Sad we had to go, the baths were so nice after putting in 20k steps a day!"

RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Difficult to use facility due to minimal English language signage. Nice , friendly staff. Tried hard. Adding 1 or more English speakers, particularly at restaurants would improve English speakers experience"

"駅からも近く、レストランやコンビニも近く、部屋も割と広く、綺麗で、静かで、とても良かったです。また京都に行く時は利用したいです。大浴場もとても綺麗でした。"

"Very friendly and helpful staff as well as nice rooms."

Mercure Kyoto Station

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very helpful. The room was spacious for Japan. The bathroom, toilet and sink were all separate and it worked very well Location was great for us. My only negative comment is that it would have been nice if they had towel racks to hang a used towel on to dry after bathing/showering. We would recommend this hotel."
