Top Southern Kyoto Hotel Reviews

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

8/10 Good
"Large hotel. Everything okay. Only issue is during check in, front desk was not busy with 3 to 4 staff standing by doing nothing but will not check us in. Asked to use self service. Self serve did not work. Ended back at front desk and finally got checked in. Not very courteous and quite frankly rude not willing to help us first time. Most hotel check you in willingly with a smile."
