Kyoto Otani Sobyo Hotels

"This hotel is one of a kind - all details are thought of for you so you can just come and enjoy. We had the kaiseki beef dinner as well and it was delicious. Steps away from Yasaka pagoda for after dinner stroll."

"Staff was amazing, room was awesome and clean, great location, thank you for the wonderful experience."

"This was the perfect hotel for me and my teenaged son. We were close to a lot of the sites I wanted to see and a quick bus ride from the heart of Kyoto that he wanted to experience. The hotel itself was charming and spacious. Especially after spending a few days in Tokyo, the room felt massive. Two double beds, a living area with TV, separate WC and separate tub/shower. The staff was enthusiastic and cheerful. I can’t recommend this place highly enough! Superb hotel!"

"Beautiful hotel in Ginza with the most attentive staff!"

"Great host and communication. The house is cozy and it had everything we needed. The air conditioning was great in the Japanese heatwave. In just under 10 minutes, you can walk to some of the nicest streets in Kyoto with temples and cafes. However, everything around there closes quite early and becomes really quiet - so be aware if it’s not your vibe. Not a big deal for me, though. The only real issue is that the property is not very accessible: the closest bust stop is about 15 min away and...

"Staff was extremely helpful. Jacobo at the concierge made our stay so enjoyable he made superb itineraries recommendations. He also recommended restaurants and cafés to go and he made the reservations for us. I highly recommend this facility."

"Clean, spacious nice hotel in a great location"

" The location of the hotel is amazing, right next to a very popular photography spot in Gion. Because of this, expect some noises as there are always photographers outside around the clock. Washer dryer is really convenient. The rooms are very well maintained. Short walk to many stores and shops in Gion. "

"I didn't expect that it would be a whole house just for myself! The service was splendid, very polite and helpful. The house has everything you need, i.e. all the dishes. The interior is traditional and, very comfortable and nice."

"Very friendly and the location is great"
