“Good hotel but not top location”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 November 2012

My experience with this hotel is limited to a one night stay in October 2012, but the experience was ok. Most hotels in Kyoto were fully booked this night so this hotel was in a different location than the ones I am used to. The location is beautiful right next to the imperial palace, but being about half way up... More

“Good value for price”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2012

Nice hotel, very good location near the Imperial Palace. Very clean (as usual in Japan) and cosy. Price/quality = good deal. Possibility to rent bikes for the day. Very convenient way to discover the city! Would totally recommend it!

“Amazing Views of Samurai Era Palace & Gardens”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 February 2010

Clean and convenient. Small rooms, like everywhere else in Japan. Within walking distance of several UNESCO world heritage sites. I visited just before the blossoms started to explode, but I can imagine that late Spring or early Fall would be off the charts. Lots of places to eat near by. Great service.

“Great hotel, decent location, fast and free internet”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 March 2008

The Kyoto Garden Palace hotel is a couple of short blocks north of the Palace Side hotel and they both are immediately west (across the street) from the Imperial Palace Gardens. The public transit system in Kyoto is excellent, and in that context, the location of the Garden Palace hotel is a little far (about 10-15min stroll) from the closest... More
