Hotels near Kamigyo Ward, Kyoto

The staff was very friendly. He helped me to pick up my luggage to my room. Only one point is not good enough is that it's a little far from the city centre. Some buses stop the service around 10 something. Even I wait the bus in the city centre. The service has ended already around 10 pm. The transportation is not convenience enough.

The cleanliness at Kyoto Hachijo Miyako Hotel was truly impressive. The room was spotless, the bedding felt brand new, and the bathroom was fresh with no unpleasant odors. Every detail showcased their high service standards, making for a truly comfortable and reassuring stay!

The hotel's facilities are quite good, though the only minor drawback might be the poor soundproofing. There's a bus stop right in front of the hotel, offering convenient access to major attractions in Kyoto. The subway station is about a 20-minute walk away. As for the amenities, the hotel is well-equipped with individual shower rooms and toilets on each floor. The washing machine and lounge area are located on the fifth floor. Please note that the hotel does not have an elevator. If you have large luggage, you can inform the front desk to arrange a room on a lower floor.

”I highly recommend Mitsui Garden in Kyoto! The location is superb, with a bus stop and convenience store right outside. The room is quite large for Kyoto, big enough to fit two suitcases. My favorite part of the day was soaking in the public bath – it instantly relieved all the fatigue from a long day of walking. The hotel also offers luggage delivery service; it only costs 500 yen to deliver to Kyoto Station, super convenient. I'll definitely stay here again next time!”

For this price point, all I can say is it's an absolute steal! You can really trust big brands. I'm usually someone who goes from basic to luxurious when choosing hotels, and the day before arriving here, I picked a more budget-friendly option. But this 'budget' hotel was so good, I didn't want to leave! It felt small yet cozy. Plus, there's a bath, and coming back from a morning run to soak in the tub was just heavenly. They even have a bar on the ground floor! Every day before heading out, I'd grab a lollipop or ice cream to kick off my city walk. My family loved it. The location is a bit further out, so walking can be tiring on your feet. After a morning run, we relied on taxis for getting around during the day. I couldn't quite figure out the subway; it seemed like the JR pass wasn't valid. Next time I visit, I plan to stay for an extended period. There's really no need to spend thousands or tens of thousands to stay at those top-tier hotels. I haven't felt particularly pampered or that it was exceptionally good there. For instance, the Park Hyatt is so expensive, primarily for its location. Everything else was just so-so, and the restaurants were incredibly crowded with a strong greasy smell.

Everything okay love eggs and prawns for breakfast mayb sausages and bacon and bread for my boyfriend he suggested it!!

A Nice little guesthouse located right next to the Golden Pavilion. There are convenience stores, coffee shops and restaurants nearby, as well as bus stops. It is a convenient place to visit the sights in Northern Kyoto!

Overall, it's clean and spacious. The garden view room, however, only faces an air shaft, so there's absolutely no difference whether you open the window or not 😂. The bathroom is very spacious, but you have to get drinking water from a communal dispenser outside the room. Also, if you don't hang the 'make up room' sign, they won't clean it.

I really liked the shower with a bathtub, and the capsule hotel itself was in good condition. However, I was a bit disappointed with the service. I guess it might have been a unique situation. After checking in and going to my locker, there was a note saying I had an important message and to come to the counter. When I went, they told me someone was sleeping in my room? Excuse me? I was given room 106, but then they told me the guest from room 119 was sleeping in 106, and asked if I could just use room 119 instead? Room 106 was on the first floor, and 119 was on the second, and I was so tired from walking that I really didn't want to go up to the second floor. I initially asked if I could speak to the person who was supposedly sleeping there, using a translator. They said okay and went to check, but then there was no one in the room? But they said someone was sleeping there... There were signs of someone being there, like a charger, an overturned blanket, and other belongings. I asked them to contact me if they managed to talk to the person, but after a long wait, no one showed up. It was past 11 PM, and I just wanted to shower and sleep, so out of exhaustion, I said I'd just use room 119. After I showered, they brought the person from room 119! It was a foreigner, and all three of us were using different language translators to communicate, haha. They asked if I wanted to switch rooms then, but they weren't going to change the bedding again... I felt uneasy about it, so I just said I'd use room 119 and went to sleep. I really feel the initial handling of the situation was very disappointing. I still don't understand why someone was in a different room to begin with. Anyway, that's what happened, haha.
