Kyoto Katsura Imperial Villa Hotels

"Very strict and frustrating rules"

"Staff were friendly and very helpful. Room was clean. "

"We really loved our stay at the Blossom, it was one of the nicest hotels on our whole trip to Japan. We wish we could have used the public bath but they do not allow people with visible tattoos in it. Overall it was still worth it, as it is conveniently located, just a few train stops away from to main attractions like Nishiki Market, Pontocho Alley, and direct bus to Higashiyama and Gion."

"Rooms were kept in the best shape with all the modern conveniences you could ask for. Showers had great water pressure! Morning breakfast was wonderful with good variety of both Japanese and Western tastes. Staff were very professional and helpful. They helped when we didn't speak the best of Japanese when we stumbled over our pronunciation. There was a good mix of travelers passing through from all over. The train museum is just steps from the hotel, there's a Family Mart on the first floor and JR Train station also just steps away. It was 1 stop from Kyoto station so there is no reason to stay anywhere else with such a convenient location. "

"This hotel was amazing! The room was lovely and the staff were so accommodating! Would definitely stay here again!"
