"We had an exceptional experience at the Garrya Nijo Castle hotel. The team at the front desk as well as the team in the on-site restaurant went over and above at every opportunity to ensure we were well served. The location is convenient to public transit, and it’s proximity to the core of Kyoto meant we were only a 10 to 20 minute transit ride from almost anything we wanted to do or see in Kyoto."

Top Nijō Castle Hotel Reviews

Hotel Monterey Kyoto

8/10 Good

"We booked a room for three people but we only have two beds in our room. The hotel realized they had made a mistake the next day and the hotel manager came and apologized to us and offer to add an extra bed for the remainder of our stay, which we appreciated, but this did not fully address the inconvenience coused by their mistake. We believe the hotel should have offered some form of compensation, such as complimentary breakfast or a discount on our stay, to acknowledge the inconvenience. We expected better service and attention to detail, especially since our booking clearly stated that the room was for three people. We hope the hotel will improve its booking arrangements and customer service to prevent similar situations from happening to other guests. And also, we have communicating problem with the manager because he only speak Japanese. Although he tried to use a translation device but it doesn't help. He was a bit impatient after a few attempts. Overall the hotel is good, and we had a pleasant stay. The front desk staff is very friendly to help us checked into the hotel. The staff was very helpful for transporting our luggage to another hotel. And good service for storing our remainder luggage after checked out."
