Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Kawaramachi Jokyoji from previous guests about their experience.

Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Kawaramachi Jokyoji enjoys an amazing central location, putting guests within easy reach of Nishiki Market, Teramachi, and major shopping areas like Daimaru and Takashimaya, with Gion and Kiyomizu-dera within walking distance for some. Many find the rooms spacious by Japan standards and comfortable, some have noticed limited storage space, but the hotel's aesthetic, decorated in a gorgeous Japanese style, particularly the lobby, along with features like the onsen, receive high praise for their minimalist design and relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast offers good variety with pastries and both Western and Japanese dishes.

Excellent Stay Near Nishiki Market

great locationshopping areajapanese dishescold vibe

This hotel is in a great location. It is easy to walk to Nishiki Market and Teramachi. Many restaurants and shopping areas are nearby. The breakfast had good variety. Pastries, western, and japanese dishes were available. This made it possible to change what we ate every day.

The hotel staff felt unwelcoming to me. The staff went through the motions of being hospitable , but there was zero warmth from them. I didn't get this cold vibe from any other places during my trip. Our room had only the bare minimum of space for a standard room.

Service

The staff helped call taxis twice for me. They also translated our destinations to the taxi driver. The staff were helpful and friendly, so I was happy with the service provided .

Acceptable Stay, But Some Issues

good accesslimited storageawkward basin placement

The location offers good access to transport.

The room I had was quite small. I struggled to store my luggage, and there was barely any space to hang clothes. The placement of the wash basin outside the bathroom felt awkward. the space felt cramped and poorly designed for practical use.
