THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

THE BLOSSOM KYOTO

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were amazing. We were greeted by an employee who helped us check in, serving us a cappuchino and croissant while we completed the necessary online forms. The checkout was done through a machine (similar to our hotel in Tokyo). An employee saw us starting the process and quickly came over to help us. Everyone was very friendly and helpful - certainly made our stay delightful. The hotel was near Kyoto station, though we regretted walking from the station and dragging our suitcases. We took a taxi for 1900 yen at the end of our stay. The breakfast was amazing - so many choices and honestly, I enjoyed everything that I tried. The room was very nice with a comfortable bed. I enjoyed being able to control all of the lights from my nightstand. I wish the shower had been a few degrees hotter, but that is really nitpicking."
