This is my first time to visit Kyoto. The Royal Park brought me the first image about Kyoto, elegant and friendly. The entrance is very low-key and I nearly can't find it! The hotel gave me a upgrade to stay in the twin room and it is super large! Not even mention the unbelievable big washroom and bathroom!! Royal Park... More

This hotel was perfect for me. I had a room with two twin beds, and it was a lot bigger than I expected for an excellent price. I was there for 3 nights during Aoi Matsuri. The bathroom was beautiful and came with everything I needed. I was on the 6th floor, nothing much to see outside the window, but... More

We stayed at the Mume, one of world's good boutique hotels, on our arrival in Japan, but could not after we changed plans and returned to Kyoto. This hotel was available. It is completely pedestrian, though not cheap, a hotel which has nothing particularly wrong or right with it. One of those places that encourages travellers to leave their rooms... More

The Park Royal is located approx 10 minutes taxi ride ($13) north of the Kyoto Station.This hotel is a great value and it's located in the best possible location in Kyoto! The hotel rooms are small but modern, the staff are very helpful and have reasonably good English skills. The major sites in Kyoto are spread all over the place... More

I did not want to write a review for this hotel, for fear it will become harder and harder to book! The hotel is brand spanking new, the decor is nice, the staff is friendly and helpful. The location is awesome, steps from the most happening part of town, yet it's relatively quiet. There's a cool Japan contemporary craft shop... More

We were 3 retired couples and we arrived to Kyoto after a stay in Tokyo. The Royal Park really exceeded our expectations about location, staff and service. Surrounding by shops, restaurants of all kinds, near by the river, with a lot of bus and metro lines in the near neighbourhood, it cannot be better. Even the small double room are... More

We were in Kyoto and booked the triple room for one night. Location is very good, right in the middle of shops and restaurants - though if you did not have a car, not sure how convenient it us. We got there around 11am and the room was not ready until about 1pm which was fine since check in was... More

The hotel is located in a perfect spot of Kyoto next to the river. Easy access to all temples and tourist attractions. Excellent room product versus price. A lovely boulangerie is located in the same building than the hotel which really help for late breakfast. Truly recommend this hotel.

Excellent hotel! Very well decorated and clean. The location is great - next to gion and the center. The staff is very helpful and kind. The rooms are very equiped and well designed. A bit expensive but worth any yen! The only bad thing is that the breakfast is expensive, so we ate outside (but there are many options nearby).
