Hotels near Kinkaku-ji Temple, Kyoto

My room was large with a very big shower and tub area and full size soaking tub. Everything was updated and the mattress was very comfortable. The room had everything I needed, including a small fridge and a handy in-room safety box. Breakfast was included with my room and I could choose between the excellent Japanese breakfast in the Japanese restaurant overlooking a garden, or opt for the Western-style buffet which featured made to order eggs and omelets and a wide array of delicious options. I liked the location near the Gosho Imperial Palace and the Marutamachi subway station. When I was feeling lazy I took the free shuttle to Oike/Karasuma, where I could catch two different subways (east-west and north-south). The open atrium in the center featured a coffee shop/bar and was a pleasant place to chat with friends. I used to live in Kyoto and this is one of my favorite parts of town, very convenient yet quiet. I can speak Japanese, but was glad that the front desk staff included some very good English speakers. I found the staff at this hotel very friendly and professional throughout the property. After staying for one week, I found it very hard to leave. I will definitely be back.

The hotel is really nice and brand new, in my opinion it's in the best city of Japan, it has a good location near public transport and also close to nijo castle. If you don't mind walking along the streets of Kyoto it's a really good choice!

- Very new and extremely clean. The room was really comfortable - Good location, close to a station with two subway lines, not far from the Imperial Palace and Nijo Castle - Lobby had coffee, tea, cold drinks and snacks for free available all day, paid alcohol options. You could just hang out there if you wanted to and play the board games laying around

Very clean, comfortable, staff extremely helpful, great location.
