Fantastic location, modern rooms, wonderful breakfast, but what sets this hotel apart is the service we received specially from the front desk staff who were always so attentive and considerate of our needs and comfort. From helping us with our luggage, giving us sightseeing tips, calling taxis for us, all this showed true hospitality and caring. The Muni made our time in Arashiyama truly enjoyable."

Top Iwayasan Shimyo-in Temple Hotel Reviews

RESI STAY Nishijin

10/10 Excellent

"I LOVED this location. Check in process was okay due to the offsite check in BUT it was easy to get to from the Kyoto station and they provided a shuttle service to our hotel. The hotel was in the cutest area, a lot of great food spots near by and lots of public transport. Grocery store close to us and quick places to eat. Lobby smelled great and our rooms were super clean."

The Prince Kyoto Takaragaike, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing experience at Prince Kyoto. The view from the room was breath taking. It’s one of the best experiences I have had staying at this hotel. The staff was extremely polite and went above and beyond to help. We enjoyed their hospitality and kindness. Love to stay here again in future."

Kyoto Omuro Kadensho（Kyoritsu Resorts）

10/10 Excellent

"Maybe the nicest hotel we've ever stayed in! The room was nice, but what really made this so special was the amenities: a lounge that serves beer and snacks, shared and private onsen (hot tubs), shuttle to Kyoto station, luggage transport service, free late-night ramen... all for free! The price was so reasonable for all you get. The staff was excellent, super helpful with everything we needed. There's a beautiful temple across the street that you need to check out, and key code across the street for nice breakfast"

Ben's Guesthouse Kyoto

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and bigger than expected Small kitchenette at the entrance Small pot was missing only the big casserole Very nice to have laundry The location is good and quiet but closest bus is 7 min from the property"

Kyoto Ohara Ryokan Seryo

10/10 Excellent

"This was such a beautiful place to stay. The room was clean and large. The staff was helpful, nice and kind. The food was such an experience. I love it! The view from my room was perfect. I look forward to bring my family here."

Ryokan Yamazaki

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice Ryokan! Slightly removed from the core but there are 2 buses that regularly go into town so its not a huge issue. We stayed in the private room on the lower floor with the private zen garden, highly recommend if its available as it was amazing for late night drinks, and the sounds of night and the river that runs beside the ryokan. A must stay for a traditional experience! One Laundry + dryer on site for a small charge (plus you need to buy a detergent packet from the front desk, 200yen). The Japanese style breakfast was delicious, make sure you let the staff know the day before if youd like to have it, its 1500yen per person and well worth it! Will definitely be staying here again next time."

Hotel Excellence Enmachi Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Thre room is clean, the staff on the front desk are so accommodating, also the housekeeper"
