Top Kumano Shrine Hotel Reviews

Four Points Flex by Sheraton Kyoto Oike

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel not far from walking area of shops and restaurants."

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER

10/10 Excellent

"Very good stay"

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

8/10 Good

"This hotel was mainly for the location, and the location is awesome for shopping. The room and hotel itself were okay. The rooms are a little outdated, and the beds had a few minor stains on the blankets, nothing that was terrible (all of our group had some kind of stain on the blankets in every room) but definitely made an impact on our visit to the hotel. The premium lounge is awesome, but located directly next to a smoking area, and was often just filled with smoke, which made it so we never went. Again the location is 100% worth it, and if you just want to use it as we did as a place to sleep while shopping in Kyoto, then its awesome."

Oakwood Hotel Oike Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"Upscale but affordable stay in a beautiful neighborhood. Onsen and breakfast were outstanding. Highly reccomend"
