Highly recommended ”

The hotel is excellently located along Shijo Dori, just off the exit of Shijo subway station, and easily accessible from Kyoto Station. It was very convenient for Kyoto sightseeing from the Shijo-Kawaramachi bus stop too, as it only takes a few minutes to walk to the Shijo-Karasuma intersection. The hotel was new, clean, and more luxurious than its price. The room was spacious, the beds were comfortable, and we did not feel stressed at all during our two nights there (two adults). The lack of a closet in the room was a little inconvenient, but we loved the clean and comfortable bathroom. The famous Kyoto brasserie runs the hotel restaurant, and their bread is delicious. The area has countless good stores, restaurants, and coffee shops, making it a fun location for dining and shopping. Great bang for your bucks!

BEAUTIFUL HOTEL”

All the hotel staff were extremely friendly and polite. I had the deluxe twin bed room which came with a full set breakfast and welcome drinks per night of stay. The room was super nice and very spacious for the value. The hotel is close to the metro station, which was very convenient for us. It was about a 2 min walk to the nearest station. I would definitely recommend this hotel and come back again if I am in Kyoto.

From the elegant doors that open to the exquisitely decorated lobby as you enter to the very clean rooms and amenities, this is an amazing hotel for the price. No sento, but if you have the chance to get the breakfast as part of your reservation, we highly recommend it as it has both a wonderfully bright atmosphere as well as a deliciously prepared breakfast of eggs, a variety of breads, and extras that will make you smile the rest of the day!

Great Hotel with great staff”

We totally enjoyed the stay at this hotel. It was a short distance walk from the subway station lift exit 4. The hotel was classy and I love the spacious room and comfy sofa by the window. The french breakfast was really delicious. The staff were immensely helpful and there were a few who could speak English and Mandarin. We were appreciative of Ishida who recommended and booked our Kaiseiki dinner. She was very attentive to our preferences. Also appreciative of Ryo who recommended us dinner options around the hotel. We would definitely stay at this hotel again.

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room is spacious, clean and quiet even though our room faced the main street. The service at the Front desk and the restaurant was superb. Royal Park is only 2 subway stops from Kyoto Station and minutes to Shijo Karasuma bus stop. You can walk to Nishiki Market and the surrounding areas within 20-30 mins if you are a walker. Daily breakfast which we opted to include in our room rates was western style with eggs and ham, yogurt with fruits and coffee. I will definitely stay here again and recommend my friends to Royal Park. Well done, Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Shijo!
