4-Star Hotels in Kyoto near Old Rissei Elementary School4*

As a family of four — 2 adults and 2 children (4 and 12) we had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The location was good on a quiet street and not too far from the Kyoto station.
Check-in.

From Gojo Station, if you’re traveling light, you can take Exit 1, which brings you directly onto the same street leading to the hotel.

Booked the suite with private sauna, huge soaking tub, and separate living / kitchen / dining area and it was so worth it! We were excited to go back to our room at the end of each day to relax in

We had an amazing stay at Gion Elite Terrace. The room was beautiful and spotless, the location was perfect, and the staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Everything felt luxurious and welcoming.

Two adults, one teenager from Texas, USA stayed here for 3 nights in May. Best hotel room of our entire 2 week stay in Japan by far!

We had an absolutely amazing stay at STITCH Hotel in Kyoto and I’m so grateful I booked it based on other people’s reviews ~ every single positive comment turned out to be true!

Wonderful hotel with a zen atmosphere. Fantastic amenities as the onsen which was great and the coffee corner where you could have coffee, refreshments and some snacks (all of them free of charge).

We had a wonderful stay at The Blossom Kyoto. The location was excellent just a short walk to multiple train stations, making it easy to explore Kyoto.

ASAI Kyoto Shijo is in a fantastic location and a great choice for exploring Kyoto. We stayed for three nights in October and would happily return anytime.

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at in Japan!
Highlights:
— Chill, friendly staff.
— Room is clean, nice wooden floors, aesthetically pleasing.

We had a fantastic stay at MIMARU Kyoto Kawaramachi Gojo. The apartment was exceptionally clean, modern, spacious, and well-designed for families.

Location was perfect, great for exploring on foot or picking up a bus or subway, and getting to the markets and station.
Apartment was spotless, great facilities and amazing staff.

My husband and I had a great stay at Mitsui Garden in Kyoto. It is located right near the shopping streets, which made everything very convenient.

Amazing hotel in a fantastic location. We stayed in 5 different hotels for our stay in Japan and this was hands down our favourite.

Fabulous room at ridiculously low price. Bath/shower was particularly great. Fantastic location. Very helpful staff. Breakfast also terrific.

Had a wonderful stay at BnA Alter in Kyoto.
Our room was 501 — which featured a fantastic mural and light show by artist Mon Koutaro Ooyama.

The hotel is located just 5 minutes from Kijomizu-Gojo station (quite convenient if you come by train from Osaka) and bus stops plus metro station are nearby.

Wow this place surpassed all my expectations. The hotel is immaculate. Rooms are really nice with lots of extra details that weren't advertised.

This was my 2nd stay at Hotel Alza. This, small and intimate hotel, is quiet and convenient, with excellent access to Gion, Pontocho Alley and Sanjo station.

The Alza was excellent. Great location on the river so some rooms have gorgeous view. In the Gion district, one of the most attractive places in Kyoto.

Charming hotel, great location (next to Shinjo station, easy walking to restaurants and most central sites) very comfortable and stylish rooms.

We stayed here for our 4 nights in Kyoto on our three week tour of Japan.

Our stay at The Celestine Kyoto was a wonderful experience and one that I'd happily recommend to anyone visiting the city.

Probably the nicest hotel I’ve ever stayed at, not because it’s the most expensive or necessarily the fanciest, but every detail made my stay. Absolutely incredible.

We recently stayed at Sowaka for four nights and had an excellent experience.
Our room, 209, was spacious, comfortable, and cozy. It provided a peaceful retreat after a full day of exploring Kyoto.

“Authentic luxury” Although the bedrooms are Western style, the feel is pure Kyoto. Beautifully presented breakfast.

Apart Monday Kyoto Gojo was perfect for my 2 teens sons and myself. We had room 502, which had 2 American “full” sized beds, and huge L shaped couch that comfortably fit my 6’5” son.

We had a 2-night stay in this apartment hotel. Room was very well equipped and comfortable, also very spacious, clean and quiet. I loved the shower and the washing machine too.

Beautiful hotel with a perfect location. Room was clean and spacious. Only thing to be aware of is the bathroom. There are glass windows into the room.

We had a wonderful stay at Good Nature Hotel Kyoto, and it was a big part of why we enjoyed the city so much.

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.

Stay here in kyoto if you can. You won't regret it.
Privileged location in one of the most convenient locations possible.

I don't know where to start on how much my husband and I loved Hotel Seiryu. From the moment we turned into the drive we felt in awe. Check-in was very smooth and our room was GORGOUS.

Room condition was greatly good, very spacious and clean. Kitchen cutlets were nice and washing machine was perfect. Twin beds were little bit hard, but it's good.

We stayed here for 2 nights in April during cherry blossom season (2 adults, 2 children under 8) and absolutely loved it. I was initially a bit worried as there hadn’t been many recent reviews, but I

Good location and within walking distance to downtown Kyoto (around 2-15 minutes), yet maintain the suburb feel, quiet at night.

I loved this hotel. The staff were very kind and provided my family and me with all the support we needed. The rooms were clean, and they offered both hot and cold drinks as complimentary services.

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!

We loved this hotel! Our space was small as expected for Japan but also perfect for two people. The facilities were clean and comfortable.

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.

10/10 would definitely recommend. Good room size, very quiet, super friendly staff. Would always come back!

Great, small hotel in Kyoto. Location is absolutely perfect. Quiet yet right near the best parts of Kyoto. Excellent shower, clean, and spacious room.

Location is great! It’s an easy walk to many restaurants and all the hidden gems that Kyoto has to offer.

I stayed in 4 different hotels on my trip to Japan, and this one was my absolute favorite. The decor, the rooms, staff, and location was all 10/10! They were very helpful and friendly too.

​An absolute masterpiece of traditional Japanese hospitality! Staying at Yasaka Yutone was the highlight of our trip to Japan.

My stay at Kyokoyado Yasaka Yutone was truly unforgettable. I really appreciated how warm and attentive the staff were. They made me feel completely welcome and looked after throughout my stay.
