"i had a very comfortable stay at the mitsui garden hotel in kyoto. the rooms are more modern and spacious than your average japanese hotel and i love the cute yukatas provided. staff was helpful with sightseeing tips and the location is very convenient - you can take many different buses to all of the main attractions from the bus stop down the block. there's a convenience store around the corner and while there are not too many restaurants nearby, the few that are around are very good. finally, my favorite thing about the hotel is the onsen-type bath on the first floor that is great for relaxing after a day of sightseeing."

"Best hotel ive stayed in Japan in this trip. Location was excellent, bus stops right near the hotel that go to main attractions in Kyoto. Take a bus pass instead of the combined subway pass. We took the combined pass but found that buses were the way to go in Kyoto.
Hotel room was of a decent size for Japan, amenities in the room were great, soap and shampoo were of good quality, and we were also provided with pyjamas!
Breakfast was free and there were many pastries available, although it got boring after 3 days. There was also juice, coffee/tea and sometimes fruit.
Highly recommend this hotel. Will stay here again if I return to Kyoto."

"Very nice and clean hotel in central Kyoto. Hotel is just a minute walk from the subway station and Hankyu train station with lots of restaurants and shops nearby. You can easily walk to Nishiki Market and the Gion district. Rooms are small but that is expected of Japanese hotels unless you spend more money. There is a coin laundry for you to wash and dry clothes so that was handy for us. Highly recommend this hotel if you are staying in Kyoto."

"This was my first trip to Kyoto and the hotel was definitely the highlight. The lobby (and entire building) smelled amazing! The staff spoke excellent english and the check in/out was smooth. They also offer luggage storage after check out and called us a cab to the station. The hotel also has a private hot spring bath thats a must to try in Japan! All in all I definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kyoto! Hint: the location is amazing!!!! 500m from a high rated tea ceremony experience company (read: Maikoya), 100m from a mini market, and is super close to 3 different subway stations!"

"This is the second time I stay at this hotel in Kyoto. The great location, for its walk distance to many tourist sites, 24 hour open shops has made this hotel a great choice for staying in Kyoto. The staff are all friendly and helpful with lovely sincerity. Rooms are small but equipped with all necessary stuff like many other hotels in Kyoto or Tokyo. Though facilities wise is quite plain, I definitely would recommend this hotel to general travelers."

"we had a really pleasant stay at the keihan kyoto hotel. we stayed for 4 nights, the room is quite big compare to other typical rooms in osaka or tokyo.
the hotel provides complimentary breakfast which is quite good on the top level of the hotel. breakfast normally costs
the location of the hotel is fantastic, it is just a few minutes walk to kyoto stn to catch the jr lines, shinkansen etc. there are plenty of restaurants, cafes and shops inside the kytoto station. underneath the hotel there are shopping places too and the goods are reasonably cheap. the hotels are surrounded by other hotels, such as the kyoto tower hotel.
it is such a good deal and good value to stay at this hotel."

"hotels in kyoto are generally very expensive at all times, and this one is no different. however comparatively speaking, we thought this one was good value for money. the location was close to the gion area and the temple areas in higashiyama. facilities were good and the staff, as with most hotels in kyoto, were very friendly and professional."
