Top Shinsenen Hotel Reviews

Hotel Emion Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommended!!!! Great location, 1 stop away from Kyoto Station (bullet train and all other major train and subway lines). The area itself is quieter, a 7-11 right next o the hotel and a grocery store about 15 min walk away. The hotel however is a stand out! It has a very calm, spa vibe throughout the hotel. The rooms are spacious, the amenities are plentiful. We stayed in a 3 twin room (2 adults and 1 child) the bathroom has a tub and shower wet room with separate toilet room. The public onsen is a welcome addition. The buffet breakfast has lots for both western and Japanese palates. I am astonished this is not considered 5 star and will likely be the best stay during our Japan trip."

KOKO HOTEL Residence Kyoto Nijo Castle

10/10 Excellent

"The Koko Hotel residence is located in a relatively convenient place and offer generous sized rooms. We opted for a room with bunks for our family of three and it worked perfectly. The staff were great with plenty of things available to borrow for free, such as irons and hairs dryers, alongside a table full of free items that you may have forgotten. Located a 10-15 minute walk from the riverside area for restaurants and shops, I’d recommend it."

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is wonderful! It’s located in a perfect area of Kyoto near the market, many restaurants, bars, shops and more are everywhere! The staff are so helpful and friendly at check in and throughout your stay. If you can, add the lounge to your stay as it’s a great place to relax after a day out and about with food and coffee or beer and wine, etc. The rooms are a good size, clean and comfortable. I will absolutely be staying here again next time I’m in Kyoto! On a side note make sure if you taxi/uber in that you go into the market area to find the entrance"

Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"This was the best hotel we stayed at during our trip to Japan. Everything exceeded our expectations, from the warm hospitality to the excellent facilities. The rooms were spotless, well maintained, and the beds were very comfortable, making it easy to relax after a full day of sightseeing. What really stood out was the breakfast—it was outstanding and definitely worth trying. The chef does an amazing job, and every morning we looked forward to it. The staff were exceptional. They were knowledgeable about the area and always happy to recommend great places to visit, restaurants to try, and the best ways to get around. We couldn't have asked for a better stay and would happily return the next time we're in Kyoto. Highly recommended!"
