Top Shoden-ji Temple Hotel Reviews

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Very clean and quiet hotel with great staff! Walking distance to subway station, shopping, and dining area."

Agora Place Kyoto Nijo

10/10 Excellent

"Excelente"

The Prince Kyoto Takaragaike, Autograph Collection

10/10 Excellent

"It was an amazing experience at Prince Kyoto. The view from the room was breath taking. It’s one of the best experiences I have had staying at this hotel. The staff was extremely polite and went above and beyond to help. We enjoyed their hospitality and kindness. Love to stay here again in future."

Kyoto Omuro Kadensho（Kyoritsu Resorts）

10/10 Excellent

"Maybe the nicest hotel we've ever stayed in! The room was nice, but what really made this so special was the amenities: a lounge that serves beer and snacks, shared and private onsen (hot tubs), shuttle to Kyoto station, luggage transport service, free late-night ramen... all for free! The price was so reasonable for all you get. The staff was excellent, super helpful with everything we needed. There's a beautiful temple across the street that you need to check out, and key code across the street for nice breakfast"

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I won’t be looking for another hotel in the future, this place is awesome, close to the station, kombinis, laundry places and most of all in a quiet neighborhood, the staff was super friendly and the hotel is beautiful, the bed was a bit hard but that’s just a preference, I will be coming back!"

KOKO HOTEL Residence Kyoto Nijo Castle

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for large groups! The hotel was spacious and had a small kitchen! Perfect for us!"

Hearton Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Good breakfast and amenities"

Ben's Guesthouse Kyoto

8/10 Good

"The room was clean and bigger than expected Small kitchenette at the entrance Small pot was missing only the big casserole Very nice to have laundry The location is good and quiet but closest bus is 7 min from the property"

Ryokan Yamazaki

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice Ryokan! Slightly removed from the core but there are 2 buses that regularly go into town so its not a huge issue. We stayed in the private room on the lower floor with the private zen garden, highly recommend if its available as it was amazing for late night drinks, and the sounds of night and the river that runs beside the ryokan. A must stay for a traditional experience! One Laundry + dryer on site for a small charge (plus you need to buy a detergent packet from the front desk, 200yen). The Japanese style breakfast was delicious, make sure you let the staff know the day before if youd like to have it, its 1500yen per person and well worth it! Will definitely be staying here again next time."
