"One of the best hotels in the world. And definitely the best I have ever stayed at in my life. The employees are so friendly and leave enough space for customers. The rooms are so comfortable that they made me have a great sleep. The price is worth it."

Hopsitality staff took care of everything. Thank you very much.

I give 5 stars to all ratings parameters. It can be a SIX star hotel. One of the best Ritz Carlton in the world. Luxury modern amenities with preserved japanese culture , that permeates into hotel service, hotel decor and ambience. It transports you to an luxury escape from the daily routine! It wakes up all 5 senses! The hotel MIZUKA restaurant transcends the japanese food to a new level and experience, worthy of Michelin star recognition!

I have stayed at some of the best hotels in the world, and I must say I was happily blown away by this Hyatt in Kyoto. Although it has the corporate name, it feels like it's own independent boutique hotel, definitely the most unique Hyatt. The staff are wonderful - friendly, eager to help book reservations, helpful and warm. The location is walking distance to nearby shrines and about 15 minutes from the maze streets of Gion. The rooms are quiet, clean and well designed, with a wonderful shower...

They are renovating this wonderful gem to celebrate its 130th anniversary in 2020 to coincide with the Olympics. I was lucky to stay in a room newly renovated and it was wonderfully beautiful right down to the state of the art Toto bathroom fixtures.
