高濑川门酒店京都 by HULIC

Great hotel in a great location. The staff is very pleasant and helpful - a pleasure to talk to .

Great hotel, beautiful rooms, in a very walkable area to Gion and shopping.

We had 6 adults in 3 rooms. Everyone loved this hotel for these reasons: (1) the perfect location - easy walk to everything including Nishiki Market, Samurai, all the sites on the walking tour, restaurants, shops! 10 min bus from Kyoto Station (no transfers). (2) room comfort & view - Large room, comfortable bed, huge bathroom with 2 sinks, 2 large closets, bathroom, separate shower/tub, great shower pressure, lots of amenities, view of the mountains; (3) 3rd floor lounge - Open at all hours, with all sorts of beverages incl variety of coffee drinks, flat & still water, juices, wine. Also, candy and snacks In evening, they provide bamboo skewers of marshmallows; (4) 8th floor bar and restaurant have a great view; (5) unparallelled staff - so hiepful and nice!

Not sure the price justifies the hotel. Just so everyone is aware the hotel is literally in the busiest part of Kyoto in the middle of all the nightlife. If you are out all day and want to relax, this is not the hotel for you. Had to ask hotel for ear plugs each night because the streets were filled with people yelling till about 4 am. I stayed Friday, Saturday, Sunday, so that had something to do with it but still would have avoided had I known. The room was okay, average for a 4 star hotel. The bottom of the hotel is also a regularly visited area by many people who are not staying in the hotel, so it’s pretty much loud and busy all day. Overall I’d give about 3.5 out of 5, and wouldn’t recommend this to friends and family.

We loved the stone box in our room. This was an amazing property, extremely friendly and accommodating staff. Great location to nearby attractions, restaurants and transportation. We will definitely come back next time we are in Kyoto.

The hotel es perfect location. The room was twin bed room which was very small. No space at all. If you travel with a lot of languages you will have problem. The breakfast eras was very nice. The breakfast for $25 not worthy. They have Japanese breakfast with for perfect. But the buffet was very few varieties.

Terrific location and it was a nice respite from the busy city. We stayed in the school part and the rooms were spacious and well appointed. There was a great lounge area with a fire pit and free drinks. Make sure you have breakfast at the restaurant upstairs. I would definitely recommend and will stay here when I return.

The hotel felt very modern. I was able to get to the train station easily from here and there is an alleyway nearby with a lot of restaurants to choose from. I also enjoyed the Japanese breakfast that was offered at the hotel. The lounge at night looks amazing.

Great overall experience. Excellent location and walkable to all the things.

Overall it was a sub average stay at the Gate. Not sure where all the positive reviews came from. First of all, the room (essential twin) wasn’t great when we arrived. Although it was clean the materials were cheap and some strange decisions have been made ie towel hanger over the toilet? We ended up asking for an upgrade as we really weren’t happy which they accommodated and we moved to the 7th floor with a much better view and a materially better room. Although same themes underlined. I found the staff at the front desk rather hostile, perhaps down to the language barrier but even still it didn’t scream luxury one bit. The layout of the hotel also left a lot to be desired. 8th floor was nice enough but we didn’t really end up spending much time up there so it sort of felt like you were in some kind of housing complex with very little character. Food was also very mediocre (priced reasonably though). Went for the Chefs lunch at Anchor which set me back ~£18 for 4-5 courses. Each course was incredibly small and was a little shocked at the Pumpkin Soup which had a depth of what must have been 3cm at best. Main meal was nice along with desert but again really not living up to the reviews. The good - location location. Was in the Giotto area, with incredibly close proximity to Pontocho Park and all the restaurants there. Shopping nearby as well and very well located for transport. Overall is was a sub average experience and ended up leaving the hotel 1 day early.

I had a great stay at THE GATE Hotel in Kyoto! The property is modern, clean, and well-maintained. One of the highlights is definitely the top floor, where the reception and bar are located—it offers a stunning panoramic view of the city, especially at sunset. The location is super convenient, just a short walk from the train station and close to several local attractions, which made it easy to explore Kyoto. Overall, a comfortable and stylish place to stay. I’d definitely come back!

I was here one night. Its a great spot next to Pontocho.

excellent

Great location, great staff, good size rooms and bathrooms,

Convenient location close to transportation and restaurants. Front of the property had the best Sakura sights and we were able to enjoy them every mornings and evenings. Will definitely stay here on our next trip.

Best hotel in kyoto

Good experience, but there is a few things clients should know. Like the reception is on the 8th floor. There is no bell boy, you don't get help with luggage. If you get there after hours there is really a problem.

Excellent property in central location

The hotel is a beautiful and it’s close to everything, I would go back to this hotel again

Fabulous location and rooms great
