Kyoto Umekoji Kadensho

This hotel has 5 private hot spring rooms, perfect for couples. The location is great, right next to the subway station. The Michelin-starred noodle shop, Ken, diagonally across from the hotel, is definitely worth checking out!

Our family's stay here was absolutely perfect! The hotel is conveniently located, the rooms were spotless, and all the facilities were well-maintained. The front desk staff were patient and friendly, and the overall atmosphere was elegant and quiet. Traveling with kids, it was so comfortable, and getting to all the sights was a breeze. We'll definitely choose this hotel again when we come back to Kyoto.

This is a very Japanese-style hotel, with the onsen (hot spring) being a major highlight. The water quality is excellent, and the facilities are complete. They really go above and beyond with the amenities, offering Japanese sweets and mini ice creams, and even ramen in the evenings. The common areas on each floor are very elegantly designed, and there are massage chairs tucked away around the corner for post-onsen relaxation.

This onsen hotel in Kyoto was a delightful find. It's just one stop from Kyoto Station, and only 200 meters from the exit, making it super convenient. As a traditional Japanese onsen hotel, guests can enjoy complimentary access to both public and private hot spring baths, available 24 hours a day. They even offer complimentary ramen as a late-night snack after 9 PM, which is a lovely touch. There's a 7-Eleven right outside and a bus stop nearby, making it easy to get around and explore areas like Kawaramachi for shopping and dining. Highly recommended, I'd definitely stay here again.

The room was quite spacious and very Japanese-style. The hotel offered a variety of beverages, and the breakfast was exceptionally rich. Given the current exchange rate, enjoying a breakfast with beef and salt-grilled salmon was a great deal. It's only a 2-minute walk from the JR station, super close. An unforgettable hotel, highly recommended!

The hot spring experience was great, and I really appreciated the free ice cream and ramen. The breakfast was also very generous. My only suggestion would be to add a blackout curtain. Since it's a Japanese-style curtain, the room gets bright as soon as the sun rises, making it hard to sleep in.

I really love Kyoto, and I particularly enjoyed staying at a hotel with a hot spring. I even met a fellow countryman driving my taxi, which made for a wonderfully pleasant day. The hotel's location is perfect, just a five-minute walk from the subway station. The breakfast spread was incredibly generous, and the private hot springs run in half-hour cycles. After your soak, there's ice cream available, and after 9:30 PM, they even offer complimentary ramen! The room was clean, and the bed was very comfortable. Highly recommend!

One of my favorite hotels ever ♨️ This has to be one of the most comfortable hotels I've ever stayed in 🥹 During my stay, there were so many thoughtful complimentary services: popsicles, Yakult, coffee, matcha, and even free shoyu ramen for a late-night snack (though I found it a bit hard to appreciate – just salty, but you could take it back to your room 😂). The public bath is truly massive and incredibly clean. The room even thoughtfully provides a small basket 🧺 specifically for hot springs, perfect for holding towels and personal items. Downstairs, you can pick up beautiful bathrobes to wear for photos after your dip, and there are also hotel casual clothes in the room. There are 4 private baths in total, and you rarely have to wait in the morning or late at night. They offer great privacy and an excellent experience. The room has a wonderful classic Japanese feel, and for a hotel in Japan, it's remarkably spacious. It felt a bit luxurious for just one person 😂, the space is genuinely large. My favorite part is that the shower and toilet are separate, which is incredibly convenient for family trips. Breakfast was also a real surprise, with an incredibly rich selection: sashimi, roasted pork, salmon, wagyu curry, and a wide variety of other dishes. I was so full after eating that it lasted until evening 🤣. All the staff were also very polite and enthusiastic. This time, I'm especially grateful to the staff for helping me book the bus to Kansai Airport, which saved me a lot of hassle. The price is indeed a bit high 😂, but overall, the experience felt truly worth it. Some hotels you might stay at and just move on, but this is the kind of place where, once you've stayed, you'll want to come back again. I stayed alone this time, but next time I definitely want to bring my sister back to fully enjoy the hot springs, breakfast, and the leisurely pace here. ♨️🧺❤️ I will definitely be back.

This is like an upgraded version of a Dormy Inn or Onyado Nono, but with even more onsen options and bigger rooms. It's only one stop away from Kyoto Station, making it a super convenient choice.
