Top Astronomical Observation Center Hotel Reviews

Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"My husband and I had a wonderful stay at The Cross Hotel in Kyoto. The hotel itself is beautifully designed and our room was spacious with plenty of natural light from the large window overlooking the canal and walking path. The bathroom was lovely with a large soaking tub, and the associated amenities — all without charge (bath salts, natural loofa-type wash cloths etc) were very much appreciated. The breakfast buffet was plentiful and offered a wide array of options. We would return to this hotel and recommend it highly."

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and nice breakfast buffet. The exclusive lounge was also nice, but food was not replenished quickly. Great staff and well maintained hotel."

Hearton Hotel Kyoto

8/10 Good

"Clean room, towels were a bit thin! But the 5 night stay was good! Breakfast variety was great though super busy with tour groups!"

The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

8/10 Good

"Très bon emplacement, et très bon rapport qualité prix"

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"This property was walking distance to a bunch of markets such as Nishiki, Termachi, etc. There are lots to do around the area and very close to Kamo river with restaurants. I got sick when I got to Kyoto so the staff gave me English speaking medical clinics around the area. The property is nice and has laundry downstairs but there is a long wait time as everyone is trying to wash/dry their clothes. The breakfast is decent even though it is a bit pricey for Japan I would say. But there are variety of food. We also upgraded our room upon check in to have more space and they were able to accommodate pretty quickly."
