Kyoto Hotels with balcony

Located beside the Kamo River, the scenery is stunning, and the service is impeccable. Thank you Megumi and Shoko for arranging such an unforgettable gift and hospitality. It's a hotel I would definitely stay at again.

My Kyoto trip was particularly satisfying with this Kyoto townhouse. It had a garden, a private hot spring bath, and was brimming with Japanese charm. The breakfasts were especially delightful, with a wide variety and different dishes each day. After breakfast, there was also a traditional Kyoto matcha and carefully selected sweets; the owner even patiently explained the proper way to drink the matcha. It's a bit far from the subway, but there are several bus stops nearby, making it quite convenient. Strolling along Kyoto's charming streets and discovering hidden gems of little shops was also a delightful experience.

Potel Umokoji Kyoto redefines what a hotel offers its guests. Firstly, the location is unique, an easy 5 min walk from the station ( Umokoji Kyotonishi) and 3 min train ride to the center of Kyoto. Yet this convenience is coupled with its location adjoining a large wooded park which some guest rooms overlook - a special and calm outlook right in the city centre. Rooms are large by Japan standards and both the Japanese style rooms ( super comfy ) and more traditional Western styled rooms offer a Scandanavian/ Japanese decor style which is both modern and uncluttered. In addition, guest services on offer include complementary DIY fresh brewed coffee and in the evenings, complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks . Can be taken either to your room with balcony overlooking parklands or in the guest book or music library, both offering a calm respite from a sometimes frenetic Kyoto CBD. Unique, special and largely overlooked by tourist group bookings, the Potel Umokoji manages to offer the ambience and guest experiences that many mass tourism venues have lost. Try it, you won't be disappointed.

Anyone visiting Kyoto should be familiar with this hotel because it's located right in the heart of the shopping district, which is incredibly convenient. The location is excellent; you step right out to Takashimaya, and there's even a direct connection from the hotel's third floor! The hotel also boasts a cafe, a supermarket, and a gym... perfect for young travelers! The rooms are spacious, the bedding is comfortable, and the bathroom is also very roomy.

I live on the upper bunk. After checking in, the boss gave me a door code so that you can open the door when you come back late. After 11 o'clock, the boss is not in the store and has to go home. At about 5 o'clock, the boss started to prepare breakfast. The main advantages of this restaurant are: 1. The boss has a good service attitude and a warm atmosphere; 2. The breakfast made by the boss is the biggest highlight, free, with a wide variety of ingredients and relatively fresh; free coffee is provided in the evening; 3. There is a small courtyard, which is convenient for smokers to satisfy their craving; 4. It is very close to Dongshan Metro Station, only minutes' walk away; 5. The price is relatively affordable. If there is a shortcoming, the space in Room 9 is a bit cramped, but for backpackers, it doesn’t matter. It seems a bit small and a little inconvenient for those with a family.

+ this hotel 01 station only from Kyoto Station, using metro and stop at Koji Station , and then walking about 15minutes to the hotel + The easy way to reach this hotel is using bus, and stop at Kujo Omiya. Many bus have direct route to Gion, and other tourist spot (about 30 minutes riding). Please take a notes, this hotel is not in tourist area, very quiet and you will meet with many local people here. + this hotel have a concierge and standby staff, so you can keep the luggage before checkin. + this hotel is very new, i think maybe open early 2026, when we proceed for the check in, the hotel staff gave us some welcoming gift, and we can saw many flowers buoquet there. And the good news, yes they have an elevator, so no issue for thise who bring big luggage + Room very clean and tidy. We book for 03 persons, and they prepare room with 04 twin beds (separate 02 rooms). Inside room have bathtub, laundry, kitchen + equipment, and 01 dining table. + I think maybe this is the best hotel we stay at Japan. Very modern, all brand new, many USB port inside the room, wifi connection is strong, really quiet and really convenient for stay + around 05 minutes walking, you will find japanese ramen noodle resto, and also local mini market. - a little bit troublesome for communicate with the hotel staff, because when we want to make sure about Yamato Delivery Service to this hotel, it was so hard to reach to hotel staff throung phone / email. When we asking to the hotel staff about this, they said they not receiving any chat from the trip.com / ******* platform. I dont know where is the issue, maybe because this hotel very new or they are not ready yet for the online communication Please take a notes that you have to pay kyoto city tax. We stay for 02 night, and we pay JPY 1.600 total Overall it was a nice stay, and definitely really recomend this hotel for stay at Kyoto.

Quite a new hotel, absolutely wonderful. The service was great. Certainly one of the best Dusit Thani hotels out there. Will return next time.

We booked this hotel for the purpose of staying in a Japanese-style garden for one night. I didn't expect it to be quite internationally friendly. There were foreigners at the front desk who spoke English and Japanese. They were afraid that you wouldn't know how to find food, so they provided nearby restaurants, convenience stores, and vintage stores suitable for foreigners. What was surprising was that these stores basically had English menus, and they wouldn't waste time gesturing with you, which improved efficiency. There was a vintage store on the first floor, and the store owner was very enthusiastic. After you got dressed, they would take you around the hotel to check in, for fear that you wouldn't make a good photo. The price was fair, and the most important thing was that it was easy to return the clothes. We rented a half-day 4-hour package at noon, and the boss lady only asked us to return it to the hotel front desk before 11 o'clock tomorrow. During this half-day, we took the wrong bus to Osaka in kimonos, as if we were going to a comic convention and taking the subway, which was too social. In the evening, we went to the recommended Sukiyaki, and returned to the hotel front desk at 11 o'clock in the middle of the night. The room can really be described in four words: the house is bare, there is no TV, but the bathroom is extremely clean, and even the sewer pipes are shown to you, for fear that you would say it is dirty. If you have a set of Japanese tea sets, it will be more convenient to make tea art films.

I don’t usually give bad reviews for hotel, you can check my Google reviews, mostly are 4-5 stars. This hotel’s location a bit away from man Kyoto centre at 7th bridge. Bus station just walking distance but if you come with heavy luggage, still need to take uber/DiDi from Kyoto station if you arrive Kyoto city by train . I actually booked a two full bed quadruple room for 5 nights but upon arrival was given a family room with one double bed. Since we are family with 4 adults and the hotel confirmation letter clearly stated two full beds so I tried to talk to the receptionist called Amar Singh. He just not interested to help and said the booking by trip.com via Rakuten is just family room. I contacted trip.com customer service and try to ask the price difference between the quadruple room and family room. He just refused to even let me know the price difference and keep saying that the quadruple room is not available, even I willing to change room in between, he said that cleaning fees will be applied if I keep changing the room. When I ask about the cleaning fees again he refused to respond. First time I encountered such bad hotel receptionist in my years of travel. Is a shame to Resi Stay’s name. Please note also there is no daily house keeping in this hotel even you stay 5 nights, is this hotel so under staffed??
