"Location great. Staff were super friendly. Rooms were perfect size and very clean. Shower good size with bath on side. Buffet breakfast was best of both worlds- Japanese and western. I recommend!"

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel room was bigger than the average, bathroom is modern and clean. The location is perfect right at the entrance of their big indoor shopping area that connect to the main tourist food street. One thing is there’s only 4 washer and 4 dryers. The washers are fast but the dryers are slow so people end up waiting in line like crazy around 9pm til midnight so do your laundry early when it’s empty"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"The room was a good size for Japan. We really liked the washroom set up..the fact that the toilet was in a separate room and there was a Japanese style washing area. It was great to have a sliding door to separate the two spaces. Storage was ample. The location was great for shopping and the hotel was quiet. We liked the lounge area in the other part with free coffee and soft drinks. The washing machines were greatly appreciated. Although they had check in machines there was always staff at the front desk to help with inquiries. Would definitely stay here again. Good value!! I’m"
