Room is spacious, it's not the typical Japanese hotel room. Comes with a mini sofa and coffee table to lounge and a big bathroom with big bathtub. 👍. It's a 7-min walk from the busy area

I recently spent 3 nights at Hotel Nikko Princess Kyoto and could not recommend this hotel more highly - our entire trip was elevated by incredible service, an unbeatable quiet location, and seamless convenience for sightseeing around Kyoto. First and foremost, I want to single out a staff member Suga for her outstanding hospitality that turned our nice stay into an unforgettable one. Suga greeted us every day with a warm sweet smile and she was very attentive - giving us transit guidance, help sorting out travel logistics, and advice on good eats & shopping areas. Suga was super helpful, resourceful, and all with a great positive energy. She made us feel genuinely welcomed and cared for throughout our visit. The hotel’s location struck the perfect balance between peace and accessibility. Tucked in a calm residential neighbourhood, we slept soundly every night. The surrounding streets are lined with a great selection of local eateries: traditional kaiseki, ramen, izakayas and pizza, all within 3 to 15 minutes walk. Major subway and train stations are only a 5–10 minute walk away. Hands, Daimaru are about 15 minutes walk, and Nishiki Market and Gion are also a nice 30 to 45 mins walk from the hotel. There is a 7-Eleven just a 2-minute walk from the hotel entrance where we bought a lot of yummy yogurts and cup noodles. A Family Mart is also nearby, approx 5 minutes walk. The room is big in Japan's standards, bed & pillows are nice and clean. Their bathroom is immense! My daughter and I showered together and there's plenty of room left! Their breakfast selection is not extensive but it is of good quality - offers Western and local Japanese selections. The curry rice was surprisingly good with a bit of spicyness, and their chef cooked the eggs perfectly. If you’re planning a trip to Kyoto and want a clean, conveniently located hotel with top-tier service, then book Hotel Nikko Princess Kyoto. A huge thank you again to Suga for such wonderful, cheerful assistance - we will absolutely return on our next visit to Kyoto!
Located in a great location in Kyoto! The interior is a little bit more traditional and more wood but still very clean hotel and great service at the front! Everyone always greats you when you come back and they have luggage service if you need to ship your luggage to your next destination!
Excellent central location with easy access to everything in Kyoto. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming, and the housekeeping is immaculate. Rooms are spacious, very clean, and well maintained. Overall a very comfortable stay.
The hotel is conveniently located close to Shijo station. It's about 4 minutes walk and you are surrounded by many great restaurants/cafe/bakeries....all of which is only within 10 minutes walking distance. We stayed here for 3 nights during our recent visit. The room is spacious and comfortable. I think it's the biggest room we've stayed at in Japan. However, it's old. We were given a physical key to our room. We weren't offered an extra key nor were we asked if one was needed upon check-in. We didn't have any issues with it though since we were always together. Keep this in mind if you travel as a group and need to leave/return at different times. The hotel offers the typical laundry service but does not have self-operated laundry room, so it was a little inconvenient for us to go outside to do laundry. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. For the price that we paid, I didn't feel like it had great value. It didn't feel luxurious or homey....just a standard hotel. The manager informed us that they are going through renovations, so maybe it will be a better experience in the future.
