The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo

This hotel is well located. If you come out and turn right you go straight into the covered shopping streets with multiple small stalls. A few blocks and right into Nishiki Market. The location gives an opportunity to beat the crowd to Nishiki Market and enjoy it without the crush of other tourists. If you turn left you can cross Sanjo bridge and are into Gion which is the older more traditional section. I like the location b/c gives you access to fun things and the subway and busses and options for walking. Rooms are clean.

The Park Royal turned out to be the perfect place for me to spend my week in Kyoto. The facilities there were upscale. The room was large for the price, bathroom had a shower and one of those extra deep bathtubs. Wi-Fi was excellent. And breakfast was varied and well done. I was particularly pleased with the location. The subway stop was close. There were plenty of nice restaurants around. Plus an excellent bakery right next door. Gion, Kyoto‘s old town, was within walking distance. Working with the staff was another high point. Whenever I needed anything from the front desk, I never had to wait in line. That’s gotta be a first for me. The hotel is first class from beginning to end.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Royal Park Hotel. It is in a fantastic location, with us just having to walk out of the hotel straight into the heart of shopping in Kyoto. The hotel has all the facilities you could wish for. It is within walking distance of a canal and we were lucky enough to be able to see Cherry Blossoms lining the canal - Beautiful. There is many food options within easy walking distance from the hotel to cater for all meals during the day. We highly recommend staying at this wonderful hotel.

The location was excellent. The room was good size for two twins with enough space to move around comfortably. We made use of the laundry facilities which was a plus. Breakfast had a good selection of main dishes. Front desk service was wonderful. We used a luggage transfer service which they made it super easy and stress-less for us by making sure the luggage was being transferred to the right hotel and assisted filling out the paperwork.
