Top Sakamoto Hotel Reviews

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is in an excellent location. You can walk to amazing restaurants, shops and the local streets are beautiful. It’s really easy to get around from here. I would recommend this hotel to other travelers. However I did not find the reception staff very helpful. I wanted advice on day trips, booking a private car and booking a restaurant and they wouldn’t help me or were very reluctant to help. Booking various things on websites and via phone can be very difficult when you don’t speak Japanese. In addition the rooms are provided with fresh towels each day but the beds are not made. However the beds are very comfortable after a long day out!"

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good

"Great location, 16 minutes by train to most shrines or a 20-30 minute walk. Across from the Kyoto station. Near some good hole in the wall places with great food (cash only places). There’s a great multi level shopping mall next door. Could’ve used more mirrors, shower did change temperatures while using it, bathroom was small, especially for having the only sink."

APA Hotel Kyoto Eki Horikawadori

10/10 Excellent

"Good, clean rooms and facilities. APA Hotel is always a safe choice for me when solo traveling in Japan and this hotel's location was within walking distance of the Shinkansen, train, and subway station as well as shopping and food. The beds aren't super firm like a lot of hotels and the TVs allow streaming from personal devices or from the hotel's own library of films, shows, and other entertainment. This hotel is located very close to Kyoto Station and right across from the hotel's main entrance is a walking path/shortcut that takes you more directly to the station's Central entrance/exit, several subway entrances, and Kintetsu railway entrance. There is also a 7-Eleven (open 24-hours) right beside this hotel. The laundry room was small, but had 3 washer-dryer units available to guests. The laundry room gets VERY hot, but I didn't have to wait long to be able to use a machine. Keep in mind that most machines don't do an amazing job of drying the clothes, so after running a drying cycle I typically hang up some clothing my room's bathroom and let it dry overnight (the bathroom ventilation does great)."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"This was our favorite hotel of the trip! Great breakfast, amenities, laundry on site, massage chairs for free, the onsen. Amazing! Great location to everything we wanted to do and for transit. If I had to say one bad thing it’s that the pillows needed to be updated. They were hard and small. Otherwise, I would 1000% recommend this Place to anyone visiting Kyoto."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"This property was walking distance to a bunch of markets such as Nishiki, Termachi, etc. There are lots to do around the area and very close to Kamo river with restaurants. I got sick when I got to Kyoto so the staff gave me English speaking medical clinics around the area. The property is nice and has laundry downstairs but there is a long wait time as everyone is trying to wash/dry their clothes. The breakfast is decent even though it is a bit pricey for Japan I would say. But there are variety of food. We also upgraded our room upon check in to have more space and they were able to accommodate pretty quickly."
