The hotel was lovely and staff very helpful. Rooms were well appointed but the closet had bifold doors that were a little awkward to use. There was a geisha performance that was well done and complimentary.
Old style and hotel, TV was in Japanese, restaurants were fully booked, and we just wanted to have lunch, not sure I would stay again as other same class hotels provide better value for money
We had a wonderful 4-night stay at this hotel. The amenities are terrific and the location is excellent. We were able to walk to many sites from the hotel and train/bus service is very close to the hotel as well allowing for convenient access to explore all areas of the city.

Dear Andrew, thank you for choosing to stay with us during your visit to Kyoto! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed our location and had a wonderful experience. We hope to welcome you back soon for another memorable stay!
We weren’t sure of the property location, but it was easy to take a taxi to all our destinations. Staff was warm and welcoming and helpful. We stayed twice at this property. The first stay our room was in the main building. The second stay we were in the annex. We definitely prefer the main building.

The hotel is great!
The staff are well trained and do a great job.
I guess my only lingering thought I have is with Expedia and its pricing. I felt I was given one quote online but when we checked in, they gave us a higher price.

Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Kind regards, Hyatt Regency Kyoto
We absolutely loved this hotel and would stay here again without hesitation. The staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfast was outstanding, the shower was one of the best we have experienced. We also enjoyed the Italian restaurant in the hotel. Easy bus access and a short cab ride to Kyoto station. There is a beautiful garden just on the other side of the hotel that was a hidden gem. We hope to come back some day.

Attentive staff, rooms need a little updating
Hotel is located in the middle of most attractions but not next to other dining options. An amazing temple is next door. A helpful concierge was able to arrange a Michelin starred omekase on short notice (1-2weeks) which was nice. Rooms are bit tired with carpeting throughout with stains in some areas, also a bit on the smaller side but ok.
It was a beautiful property with helpful staff. The concierge team was exceptional . They worked with me before my arrival and while I was there. A wonderful Italian restaurant and the loveliest bar. Professional people throughout.
Excellent room but pricey for the overall experience. Loved the soaking tub with view. Excellent front desk, room and restaurant staff. Everyone was very friendly. The three in-house restaurants were excellent.
Beautiful hotel. Out of the noisy area around the Kyoto station. Good transportation options and options for food outside the hotel. My only concern was that realized I left some items in my room after checking out. When I arrived at my next location, I contacted the hotel and they could not locate them.
The room was very nice but the bathroom was weird. The step up area created an odd super low sinks, could easily touch the ceiling. Also the slight floor difference between the shower area and the sink area you could easily roll an ankle. Also, there were many spiders on the ceiling of the balcony, which also has a low ceiling which makes it easy for an average height person (I'm 5'10") to get spiders in their hair.
Gorgeous hotel, helpful and friendly staff, amazing food, honestly some of the best food I’ve ever eaten in my life, the Italian restaurant was unbelievable and the breakfast buffet was perfect. I can’t wait to come back again!
Fantastic hotel in a good location less than a 10 minute cab ride from all of the action. The staff is wonderful and helpful, particularly with hailing cabs. The deluxe king room with balcony is spacious and has a gorgeous view of the Kyoto National Museum.
A beautiful modern hotel designed in harmony with Kyoto's sense of place. The location is in a quite part of town next to several temples and shrines and within walking (vigorous) distance to major sites. The staff is a delight and incredibly helpful and kind. Try to get a room facing the garden. Sadly, the Japanese Restaurant was closed when we were there.
Amazing service and beautiful hotel. Really enjoyed my time being here. Thank you!

The staffs were excellent, location is good and the breakfast is superbly! However, the amenities (soap, shampoo etc.) are limited, I always prefer soap and shampoo etc. are in big refillable dispensing jars rather than in small bottles, which is more eco friendly.
Incredible from the moment of walking through the door. The service was exceptional! Each person here did there very meat to always meet every request. Thoughtful and warm, which is a positive contrast from Tokyo. Great facilities, food, rooms, and service. I would rate 10 stars if it was possible.
