Top Kifune Shrine Hotel Reviews

Agora Place Kyoto Nijo

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and had just enough space for 2 people, maybe not for people with bigger/larger amounts of luggage than 1/person. The hotel was located within walking distance of Nijo Castle and to Kyoto Gyoen National Garden where the Kyoto Imperial Palace is located. The Garden and the Imperial Palace grounds are free to enter, so it was a very pleasant experience regardless of the rain. If you are looking for a quieter, more laid-back area to stay in with food options, I would recommend staying at Agora Nijo."

SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier

8/10 Good

"Second time in the hotel , even we asked to be upgraded they offered just with extra charge . Breakfast doesn’t have the variety I would expect including lack of western products and vegetables . Service is good in general and location excellent . Room size is not too big for superior double All together price wise is reasonable"

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were spotless and I liked the matcha tea set and whisk along with coffee every morning. The wet bathroom was fantastic and a real treat"

THE JUNEI HOTEL Kyoto Imperial Palace West

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was very clean in a nice neighborhood with a market close by. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was Japanese themed and great way to start each day. The onsen tub in the room provided the settings of a Japanese onsen with privacy. Would love to stay here again."

Ben's Guesthouse Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"My son and I stayed at Ben's Guesthouse for four nights in September 2026. Our room was clean and plenty spacious. The beds were comfortable and the bathroom was clean and totally functional, nice shower/bath. The air conditioning was comfortable and reliable. There is a strict no-shoes policy which is enforced by placing your footwear in designated slots before you enter beyond the office area. It's easy to adjust to this policy, and it translates into very clean floors throughout. Ben's is in a quiet and clean neighborhood, and particularly quiet at night, as all the stores on that particular street close early. There is still plenty going on at all hours within walking distance. We felt really lucky to have discovered Ben's Guesthouse. If I ever return to Kyoto, that's where I'll stay, beyond a doubt."

OKU Kamishichiken

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place to stay in an area of Kyoto that’s close to a few large, beautiful shrines. Really great room complemented by a wonderful, helpful staff. Would love to stay here again!"

Ryokan Tori

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful experience. We experienced a lovely tea ceremony. The hostess was very familiar with the area. Would recommend this place to anyone who wants an authentic Kyoto experience"

Kyoto Ohara Ryokan Seryo

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the place, very quiet, tucked away from busy Kyoto. The onsen in our garden is fantastic. The stuff is very nice and professional."

moksa Rebirth Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely adored my stay here only wish it was longer. Nicely remote because I find the tourists in Kyoto quite overwhelming and the sauna was lovely. Breakfast was also amazing and they accommodated my allergies without stress."
