Kyoto Brighton Hotel

Kyoto Brighton Hotel

Nishijin Kyoto|1.11km from Soushunan
Located a few minutes walk to the Imperial Palace is this hotel. This area is considered to be a ”quiet zone” so there is a minimal commercial activity. There are very few restaurants and the closest convenience stores are a block or two away. If you ever watched movies like Die Hard or In the Line of Fire, you remember scenes in a hotel with a large indoor atrium with glass elevators. All the room doors face the open atrium. That is exactly what the design of this hotel is like. All the amenities are on the ground floor or below. As for the rooms. For Japan, these rooms are quite large. It would be comfortable for international visitors who are used to larger rooms. The amenities are not branded but of higher quality. There are three areas for parking. Ground level, basement, and outdoor. While checkout is at noon, you get complimentary parking until 3 pm. We choose this hotel for this feature. Allows you to spend the day exploring without worrying about the expensive street parking costs. There is a taxi stand with taxis until about 10 pm. There are five restaurants, be fair warned, all are quite pricy. There are two breakfast options. If you want a traditional Japanese breakfast, you go to the Japanese restaurant Hotaru. If you want a ”western” breakfast, there is a buffet at the Terrace restaurant. We were not interested in seeing the nightlife but wanted to be close to the Imperial Palace and Nijo Castle. This hotel was perfect for our needs. Would recommend without hesitation.
Hotel the Mitsui Kyoto, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa

Hotel the Mitsui Kyoto, a Luxury Collection Hotel & Spa

Nijo Castle Kyoto|1.21km from Soushunan
We were a group of 6 people staying at the Hotel Mitsui on a trek through Japan. Suffice it to say, that the group was all pleased that we stayed here. Our initial check in process was a bit bumpy (no tea service) as it was clear everyone was checking into the hotel for a holiday weekend. However, within 30 minutes, we were all on our way to our rooms. Overall, the hotel and the rooms are designed in muted tones and a modern zen vibe. Where other hotels would simply have drywall covered with pictures, the Mitsui has clearly thought about every surface. We were in a room that looked out to the central garden, which is beautiful. The room had a nice long marble bench at the entrance which was nice for putting shoes on or setting things down to pack / unpack. Further in the room, there is a bar area, desk area and a nice long padded bench by the window. Controls for the room are near the bed and you can dim lights or raise and lower blinds with ease. The bathroom is a very clever design with two pocket door entrances, offering a closet area, double sink, a wet room with tub and shower and rom for the toilet. The room for the toilet is wide and very peaceful. Of course, it comes with the fancy Toto Neorest toilet that raises and lowers the seat automatically, has a heated seat, has a bidet feature and more. The shower offers both a hand held and a rain head that with a fine spray. Bathroom toiletries are crafted for the Hotel Mitsui. Of course, robes were available (just ask if you need a different size). Let’s talk about sleeping…. The bed was among the most comfortable that I have ever tried (firm, with just the right amount of softness). Down pillows and a duvet complete the scene. And course, should you not like your pillow, there is a pillow menu. The rooms at the Mitsui are quiet with blackout shades. At night, gentle nightlights illuminate the path to the bathroom. In all, the sleep experience is well thought out and devine. One of the stand out features of the hotel would be the Thermal Springs in the basement. The Thermal Springs are a modern version of a traditional Japanese onsen. Access is open to everyone in the hotel, but the number of people permitted in is managed to in more than 14 people at a time. You have to call ahead to make sure there is space, but in our case, we were always able to get in. Anyone who out touring in Kyoto, should make time in their busy schedule to visit the Thermal Springs between their tours and dinner - it is a great way to wash off the city and relax before dinner - very civilized. This review is particularly fun for me as our stay at the Mitsui ultimately caused us to break up with our travel agent. He was SO insistent that we stay at the Ritz , he could not imagine trying something new like the Mitsui (nor was he willing o have his team check it out). In the end, I feel vindicated, we loved our stay at the Mitsui and would happily return

Because the reservation was too late, only the 4-bed female dormitory can be booked. The one who arrives at the station at 10 pm, in particular, this can only be reached directly by bus. Take the B205 and B208 at Shichijo Ozenmachi Station. You can definitely reach the hotel within 5 minutes on foot. , I would like to remind you that there are A205, B205, C205 and D205 buses in Kyoto. You must go to B205 or B208 to get on the bus. I was delayed for 30 minutes at Kyoto Station because of this. The bus I took did not have a stop screen. I can only Google, but I still take one more stop. I am very grateful to the proprietress Ma Ma. I walked back and forth four times to pick me up at 10:30 in the evening, because the first time I thought I was in Shichijo Ozenmachi, it turned out to be Mama. I didn't see me in the past, only to find that I was sitting one more stop, but Mama still let me stay where I was and came to pick me up. I arrived at the hotel soon and I saw the cozy lounge area surrounded by books at first sight. It was really amazing. The 235 RMB was very worthwhile. After checking in, Mama’s husband helped me carry the suitcase. On the second floor, Mama showed me the various facilities, and also drew the route map of nearby hot springs, restaurants and attractions. Mama can speak English and some Chinese, and communication is really barrier-free. You can also buy a 600 yen bus here. One day ticket, including breakfast, breakfast is very rich, there are fruits, toast, barbecue, eggs, juice, coffee and milk, self-service. Everything is great, but people with poor sleep should be careful to enter, because it is a Japanese-style room, you know the soundproofing effect!

Nijo Castle Kyoto|0.57km from Soushunan
In fact, it’s some way away from the subway, but it’s a good walk. It’s not too far. There are still more choices for nearby buses. It's close to Nijo Castle, but we stayed for three nights and haven't visited it. One morning we arrived at the door because we didn't go in because we had to buy a ticket. In fact, it is recommended to take a walk when we have time. Speaking of the hotel, it really feels good. The house is said to be a century-old house. There are two rooms on the first floor, a living room, a dining room, two bathing rooms, two toilets, and the washing is in the corridor, although it is small. , But the space is compact and the planning is very reasonable. By the way, there is a small courtyard, but only one of the rooms can be seen. Just open the door, and it is cool to live in this room. The second floor didn't go up much. It seemed that there were three or four rooms. Because we went in the off-season, the whole hotel was not full, so we did not encounter the noisy situation of walking up the stairs as mentioned in the comments. The air conditioner and heater in the room are very powerful, so I can't sleep on it all night, or it will be too dry. Living here really feels like home. The furniture and decorations that are visited everywhere are very coordinated and comfortable. We buy some snacks and breakfast from the supermarket every night, and we have tea parties in the evening. We make our own bread in the morning and mix it with milk. We must drink more. We have bought several brands of milk on the side, and we recommend Hokkaido and Meiji. We drink it every day for almost the entire trip in Japan. Speaking of small places, the bath water is strong and hot. I forgot the brand of shampoo and shower gel, because I have stayed in several hotels and remembered it, but it is really good, it seems to be orange-flavored and very natural. If you have time, if you have been walking outside for a long time, you can experience a local bathing house, which is a domestic bathhouse. Dianping search is good, just look at the high score and not far away. I went to experience it and encountered very strange things, but it may be very common in the local area. I won't go into details, let's experience it by myself.

Resi Stay Nishijin

Resi Stay Nishijin

Nijo Castle Kyoto|0.51km from Soushunan
We had mixed reviews of this accomodation Pros - was a very large room two small doubles and a bunk perfect for families. Amenities are great with wifi, lots of kitchen utensils, stove, tea and coffee supplied, toothbrushes available, washing machine and tablets are provided with an inbuilt dryer system in the bathroom. Bathroom and shower area was also spacious. Beds are on the okay side but could be softer. The area itself is nice and quiet with a bus stop right out from we utilised every day, supermarket and Lawsons are across the road and you feel very safe. Would recommend for families. Cons - check in is in a different location 20minute taxi away so we had to catch a train to the check in office when arriving in Kyoto from Osaka, then a taxi to the accomodation after this which chewed up a few hours as we had to wait 45min in addition to check in due to busyness of the office. The area is a bit out of the way of everything next time I might consider staying at a different resi stay location closer to sights and facilities like shops etc. All the restaurants in the area seem to not open for breakfast until 11am so we had to have McDonald’s if we didn’t want to cook or travel too far for breakfast as we have a toddler (early riser). Same occurred at dinner time a lot of restaurants didn’t seem to be open the Monday or Tuesday we were there or opened too late for us (we travelled with a four year old). Our last disappointment was resi stay apparently have a strict not noise at night policy however another room partied until about 3am but there is no front desk or after hours phone number to call to complain / get the noise to stop. Was very frustrating as walls were very thin so we didn’t sleep very well. Overall we would stay with Resi Stay again but at another location due to Nishijin being a bit too out of the way for us.

The lobby in the introduction photo is on the second floor, but the room is on the ground floor. You have to go outside to get there, which is very inconvenient. There is no TV in the room. There is already a car parked in front of the front room, so self-driving tours basically cannot park it again.

Nijo Castle
Really recommended. This is an apartment hotel, the appearance is unsurprising, but a very new building, clean, convenient location, free parking, super cost-effective. Before staying in the room, I took free laundry powder in the corridor on the first floor and stayed for one night so I didn't take dish sponges and garbage bags. The room design is reasonable and warm, it is relatively large in Japan, the facilities are also very complete, there are several pots, tableware, bath towels, etc. are four people. It is very convenient to use the drying function of the bathroom. It feels good, get off the bus to Kyoto or book this.

This time I stayed in a tatami room on the 2nd floor, facing the window with plenty of sunlight. The room is equipped with air-conditioning, electric fan, small table and cushions, mosquito-proof feather night light, and 3 charging sockets. There are 2 bathrooms (shower) and toilets on the 1st floor. 2 bathrooms, 2 sinks, hair dryers, cotton swabs, etc., 2 public bathhouses near the old house (elderly soup 430 yen, remember to bring your own bath towels), bicycle rental 500 yen for 24 hours Pros: The owner is very friendly English Not bad, the tatami mats of the century-old house have a faint rice scent, bath towels are provided, luggage can be stored for free, the environment is beautiful and quiet Disadvantages: The location is located in a residential area, so there is a bus stop (Marutamachi Chiko Huiin) about 20 minutes away from the subway minute
Kyoto Uraraka Guest House

Nijo Castle
I have lived here twice in Kyoto, and the price is very high. There are many buses at the door to go to Ping An Shen Palace, Busan and other attractions. Although it is not a 24-hour front desk, it does not affect the accommodation at all. The service is warm and intimate. I came back early to see the staff cleaning the room very seriously, so although the matter has been 4 years, I feel that the room has not changed. There are many kinds of bread for breakfast, and tea and coffee are also available 24 hours a day, which is quite convenient. The only fly in the ointment is the sound insulation. If the person next door is noisy, it will affect sleep. In addition, the air conditioner is a bit noisy, but there are free earplugs at the front desk. I will continue to live here next time!
