Kyoto! A budget hotel worth a second visit!! So comfortable!!

Unforgettable experience at The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto Surprise upgrade A few days before check-in, I used a suite voucher to successfully upgrade to a larger room with a view of the Kamo River, which was a pleasant surprise. I have never used a suite voucher so smoothly before. Thoughtful check-in The check-in process was unique. The staff led me directly to the room to complete the formalities and then introduced the various activities of the hotel in detail. It was about 2:40 pm at the time, and the staff quickly helped me book a free bike tour starting at 3 pm. During this ride, I visited several temples that are rarely visited by tourists and successfully photographed the beautiful red leaves. Complete facilities In the evening, I experienced the hotel's gym and swimming pool. The gym thoughtfully provides energy bars and sports drinks, and the pool area has a massage area and sauna to relax the body and mind. Unique dining The hotel's breakfast is in the form of kaiseki cuisine, which is very special. Platinum members can also enjoy breakfast for free. As for the taste, it varies from person to person, after all, it depends on personal preference for Japanese food. Although the variety of the buffet area is not rich, it is also unique. Excellent concierge service The hotel's concierge service is commendable. They helped me book a Michelin one-star eel rice restaurant Uokeya and a sukiyaki restaurant Morita on the same day, and these popular restaurants were already fully booked online. According to the concierge, they have maintained good cooperation with many local specialty stores. Rich cultural tours I also participated in the hotel's free art tour. During the event, the staff led us to every corner of the hotel and told the historical stories behind each building, which gave me a deeper understanding of the hotel. Warm check-out moment When I checked out, I received a photo frame with a photo of me and the red leaves, and this small gift was a warm end to my stay. In short, The Ritz-Carlton, Kyoto shows its unique charm in many details, which is completely different from ordinary hotels. Although the cash price is high, it is very worth experiencing when there is a voucher. Moreover, there are relatively sufficient points rooms here, unlike the hotel next door, which is difficult to book.
