Kyoto Kifune Shrine Hotels

"Great hotel, great room, great amenities, great staff, best 3 star hotel of the world"

"A great hotel close to the famous Pontocho alley. The bed and bedding were so comfortable and super clean just like all the room amenities. We love this hotel. The buffet breakfast and lunch were above average for the food quality and taste even though the selection was limited. We’ll stay here again next time we visit downtown Kyoto. "

"Staff was friendly, housekeeping did an excellent job. The only negative thing is that the smoking room allows too much smoke into the lobby and the laundry room. We used the laundry room and our clothes smelled of cigarette smoke. Maybe a better ventilation or air purifier would eliminate the smell of smoke"

"Magical, simply magical. That is the only way to describe this place. From arrival to egress, the people there made us feel welcome and well taken care of. Breakfast and Dinner were served everyday and you do NOT want to miss them. I'm a large guy and I thought I wouldn't get full, I was wrong. The Ryokan is immaculate and the grounds are spectacular. We had planned to spend a day in Kyoto but we spend so much time wandering around the shrines, shops, cafes, and coffee houses we never made it into the city. This place was perfect. I can't recommend it enough! "

"Clean and courteous staff"

"The hotel was beautiful- good size room, great service, comfortable beds and the added bonus of shuttle bus was also great!"

"Excellent Hotel, superb staff and great location close to subway lines, hotels and convenience stores right there at walking distance."

"Lovely setting, very authentic. The hotel wasn't very full, which was lucky as I can imagine the facilities being stretched if full occupancy."

"Room was clean - access was good. Close to bus stops for public transit."
