Top Koka Hotel Reviews

Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu

10/10 Excellent

"Great location in Kyoto. They offer amazing toiletries/guest amenities!!!"

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent

"Spacious rooms, great location."

Nohga Hotel Kiyomizu Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable. We loved the rooftop restaurant and bar. The coffee shop and bakery were wonderful in the morning. Staff were terrific and helped us book a car and driver for a day sightseeing."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Solario Hotel, Kyoto: great location, pricey for what you get The location is the standout. It's easy to reach the main sights and getting around the city is simple, which makes it a very convenient base for exploring Kyoto. The rest of the stay was solid: everything was pretty good and nothing really let us down. The one drawback is value. Given what the room rate was, I expected a bit more, and it could be better for the price. Still, if location is your priority, it's hard to beat. Verdict: Recommended for the location. Just go in knowing the price is on the high side."

Miyako City Kintetsu Kyoto Station

10/10 Excellent

"Location was ideal for day trips. Breakfast was very good."

Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel, close to the train station and public transportation No Gym But the rooms are nice"

Hotel Vischio Kyoto by GRANVIA

10/10 Excellent

"Very central location close to train station."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is brand new and in pristine condition, but there were some notable operational quirks. It doesn’t seem like management is able to decide whether this is a luxury property or a select service hotel - even though there were two reception desks staffed at all times, the staff were actively pushing customers to use the three self-service kiosks for all operations (check-in, breakfast coupons, check-out) and actually doing the work for them on those machines. Not sure what the point of that was or whether it should be the case in a luxury property. Similarly, the public bath in the basement is pretty underwhelming, if pristine. All that said, the rooms were spotless, staff were very helpful and spoke English impeccably, and breakfast was great both in terms of food selection and quality."

Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs

8/10 Good

"There are lots of amenities here -like the public bath and the big fancy breakfast- but assume you will need to compete for every resource, from a breakfast table to a shoe locker. The lobby felt like a combination of a college dorm and an airport gate. Things are generally good in your room, and all supplies were in order. Walls are thin enough I was woken up by my neighbor’s alarm every morning. Breakfast waits at 6:45 AM were about 45 minutes. I spilled some hand wash soap on the area in front of the sink and learned that the floor was not nearly as clean as it appeared."
