9.6/10 Exceptional! (873 reviews)
We had a wonderful stay at THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO. The location was one of the biggest highlights—very convenient for exploring Kyoto, with so many restaurants, shops, and attractions within easy reach.
The hotel itself is beautiful, with incredible views of the city. Each night, we loved ending our evening at the hotel bar, relaxing with a drink and taking in the view. It became one of our favorite little rituals during the trip.
The amenities and guest experiences were also such a nice touch. During our stay, we were able to enjoy a complimentary show, along with s’mores and wine for guests.
Beautiful property, thoughtful amenities, amazing views, and an excellent location. I would absolutely stay here again on a future trip to Kyoto.
