2. Matsubaya Ryokan

Shimogyo Ward

"Matsubaya Ryokan was an amazing experience. The staff were all incredibly kind and helpful, and the premises were amazing to stay at. We stayed in the garden view room, and we were very pleased with the experience. The room was very spacious for Japan, and there was plenty of extra fun stuff to do, such as: tea making, a free sake tasting, and a private bath experience. A ton of fun, and a great find in Kyoto!"

"We stayed in Room number one. It was incredible. It was such a wonderful experience to stay in a historic building that had modern amenities and a lot of space. The room decorations and sliding doors were beautiful. The living room overlooks the garden. Everything was clean. It was nice to have the communal food area to grab coffee in the morning and a light meal. Be aware that the room entrance for the room is right next to the lobby.

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Nice clean hotel. Very good are close to lots of shopping and food and easy access to temples and museums."

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

8/10 Good

"Loved the onsen in the basement and the snack and drink amenities. It was a very nice and clean comfortable room at a great price and good location. Only complaint is the laundry was almost useless because there would always be people with items drying for hours and you would do your wash and then have to take it upstairs to dry in your room."

Hotel Granvia Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Beautiful property. Rooms were spacious and clean. Staff was extremely gracious and helpful and most spoke okay English. Food was atrociously expensive (we ordered half a sandwich and fries (about 15), and a cup of coffee (no refills) and it came to about $40 USD. Breakfast buffet was 5,000 yen. A cup of coffee was 1,500 yen, or about 7 USD."
