Kyoto Hotels near Old Rissei Elementary School

Absolutely fantastic hotel in Kyoto. From arrival the staff was very friendly and helpful. The location is very central and perfect for exploring all of the main sites.

The room is very impressive for the price. Very clean.

Nestled in the historic Higashiyama district, DoubleTree by Hilton Kyoto Higashiyama offers a perfect blend of modern comfort and traditional Kyoto charm.

Great hotel at affordable rates. Maybe 20 mins walking distance to Gion and 1 min to Kyoto subway, 10 mins taxi from Kyoto station. Rooms were well appointed and immaculate.

This was the perfect place to serve as a base for our holiday in Kyoto.

Cheapest price weve paid out of 3 bookings weve made and it was the best one. Close to the bus stop, everythings withing walking distance. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

What a beautiful stay—easily our best accommodation in Japan so far! It offered a wonderful traditional ryokan experience with exceptional hospitality.

We spent one night at this Ryokan and our experience couldn't have been better. The room is extremely comfortable, the ofuro is made of wood and provides a truly sensational experience.

I can’t help but thinking this is the best hotel in Kyoto!

I stayed at the Tassel hotel 6 nights in September 2025.
I really liked the hotel: it’s comfortable, clean, nice and modern, with a great location to visit Kyoto and helpful staff.

Amazing Ryokan in Gion. Walking distance to the big tourist spots in the area, as well as restaurants closer to the river. Backs up to a beautiful park as well.

Hotel Yuraku Kyoyasaka is a amazing ryokan!
Upon arrival, the check in staff were very helpful and informative. She explained everything we needed for our visit.
The room is beautiful and peaceful.

This was our favourite hotel in Japan.
The location is very central to Kyoto, but did not feel too crowded and overwhelming.

My partner and I stayed at sequence for 3 nights in October 2025 in a twin room.
We initially chose it for the amenities and value for money. The room was spacious, modern and stylish.

Great place to stay, super close to a couple of bus stops and good restaurants. Staff is amazing, super helpful, accommodating, and speak great english.

This is where you get the vibe and tradition of Japan. It’s so authentic, cozy, though room was a bit small.

I was very happy with my stay here. Kyoto was towards the end of my trip and throughout the past two weeks I’ve gotten very used to tiny hotel rooms, with tiny bathroom and showers.

Location is perfect for shopping and transport. It’s in the middle of the busy shopping area with access to metro and all bus lines. Rooms are big by Japanese standards.

Great hotel! Simple and clean. Fancy shower facilities. Face wash, lotions downstairs free to grab. Close to main area in Kyoto. Will definitely come again!

​We enjoyed our stay. The rooms were clean and surprisingly spacious for Japan, and the bathroom facilities were a major highlight. They provide complimentary coffee, tea and water in the lobby.

Good Nature Hotel is a fantastic base if you want to be in the heart of Kyoto. We stayed in one of the suites for 5 nights as 2 adults 1 child (4y).

GOOD NATURE HOTEL KYOTO is conveniently located very close to Takashimaya and within easy walking distance of both Kyoto Kawaramachi Station and Gion-Shijo Station.

I’m so grateful for all the lovely amenities. The rooms were so cool! I’d love to stay here longer. Water pressure was crazy high (a good thing), and sitting shower setup was so relaxing.

We really enjoyed our stay, the rooms were very spacious and they gave us a river view upon request. Service was fantastic, great English speaking staff members. Location was perfect in the Gion area.

A beautiful hotel with a really great Japanese onsen. It's situated in a very convenient location, just off the main road but far enough to avoid the noise.

Granbell Hotel Kyoto strikes a balance of modern and stylish without losing the calm, traditional atmosphere people come to the city for in the first place.

Great clean rooms, spacious, kitchenette and washing machines (in our room option). Perfect for long term stays and with an infant. We liked the location — not super touristy.

Stayed here in January with my husband and 1 year old. The apartment was great for someone with a small child as it was mostly baby proof.

This hotel is so cute and cozy! So far, it is my absolute favourite hotel in Japan!
The Gion District is beautiful and quiet, and this hotel is a short walk from some of the main tourist attractions!

Great location, right next to the Gion district and close to a few temples, that made it easy for us to walk. Rooms were clean and as well spacious. One of the better hotels I stayed at in Japan.

Stayed for six nights at the RC Hotel in Kyoto in January and we had a very nice and comfortable stay here.
Getting there from Kyoto station took around 15-20 minutes by bus and foot.

HIDDEN GEM! The layout gives you that Japanese feeling. Bed is on the floor just like they do it. We absolutely loved it.
You are dead smack in the middle of the action during the day.

Everything was perfect. Prior to our arrival the communication via email was great. The day of our arrival we got there late and they waited for us and received us pleasantly.

This Kyoto hotel was a fantastic experience from start to finish.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel for 3 nights. Its room was clean and well organized with modern furniture and equipment. It offers many washers and dryers as well as ice machine and microwave oven.

Excellent location a short walk to the longest street of shops and restaurants. The room.
Is very small but clean and all the facilities you need are provided.

This apartment is in a great location about midway between Kyoto Station to the south and downtown Kyoto and Gion district to the north.

Wonderful stay at this place. The place was very clean and had all amenities. Wonderful hosts as well. They were really accommodating to all our requests.

I really enjoyed my stay at Kabin Hotel Kyoto. The design is very modern and stylish, with a cool, new-school vibe that makes the place feel fresh and comfortable right away.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The room was spotless and a good size by Kyoto standards, with thoughtful design throughout. We absolutely loved the shower — easily one of the best we’ve experienced!

I found the bed really comfy here! Room sizes are Japanese-style ie quite small for westerners, but totally adequate. The charging ports in the room by the beds are a nice touch.

This was my first trip to Japan and I stayed in Kyoto for three days and two nights. The Grand Bach was absolutely awesome and I would recommend it for anyone but especially solo travellers.

It was my first time staying in a hostel, and I feel so lucky that I found this one in Kyoto. The location is perfect — super convenient to get anywhere, with lots of great food and shops nearby.

Easily the best hotel/hostel experience I had in Japan — by a wide margin.
From the moment I checked in, the Tsukimi team made me feel completely at home.

Perfect location in the heart of Kiyomizudera, just one street away from the crowded tourist area. Easy walk to Sannenzaka, Ninenzaka, Gion, and other spots.

Very beautiful hotel located on a quiet residential street. The staff were attentive and helpful from check-in to check-out.

I just moved from a 4 star to this 3 star and the beds are bigger, comfier and the room is more spacious. Self check in was simple, Wi-Fi works and AC too.

Just enjoyed our 5D4N at Kyoto & we stayed at Hiz Hotel Gion Shirakawa as our base. Very charming apartment hotel.

I can't imagine a better place to stay in Kyoto.

This is an Amazing Hotel with an Amazing staff And service. Ils difficult to describe the ultimate level of services provided. This is the best place I stay so far.
