This hotel is very tired in the rooms and bathroom especially. The items provided in the room were poor and small quantities. Ie coffee and tea facilities. The towels were too small. The staff were very tight with requests. Could not get a coffee at breakfast (said happy to pay and still refused) as I had to pay for a whole breakfast I didn’t want. I asked for water and only allowed me to take water from the jug as I was a guest. Breakfast was poor and limited choice. Expensive in respect of what was offered. Hence not wanting it.

The staff was very nice and very friendly and helpful as they all are in Japan.
The location of the hotel is very central so we were able to go into different directions for a lot of the tourist attractions that we wanted to hit.
The area is safe and quiet and peaceful and right across from the imperial Palace.
I liked everything about this hotel, except
The pillows
The pillows in many hotels in Japan feel like you are sleeping on padded bricks. I am not exaggerating, and I mentioned it to the gentleman in the front desk and he recommended that I wrap the padded bricks with bath towels.
Now they felt like padded bricks wrapped with bath towels

I found the location to be central. I was able to go in any direction, not too long of a drive and be where I wanted to be. We had spent the night before ArashiYama at a Ryokan.
The staff there is very pleasant. The place is kept up nicely and very clean.
It’s across the street from the imperial Palace so that was quite nice
The pillows were very very uncomfortable. Many places in Japan, the pillows are stuffed with rice and they are very uncomfortable. I had requested nicer pillows and was there weren’t any other kind and a good idea would be to wrap the pillow in bath towels.
Other than that, everything was very nice

I had a great stay at Hotel Garden Palace Kyoto. The location was excellent—very peaceful and quiet, yet at the same time super central, with plenty of activities and places to visit within walking distance. One of the highlights is that it’s also close to the Imperial Palace, which made exploring the area even more convenient.

The only downside is that the rooms really need renovation. The hotel itself is incredible, but the rooms haven’t been updated in decades, which takes away a bit from the overall experience.

This is a good choice to have the convenience of a modern hotel in a vary traditional and historic Japanese setting. The hotel is a 15 minute walk from the two nearest metro stations, but you can take the walk through the Imperial Garden. The south stop offers direct service to Kinkauji Temple on the 204 and the north stop offers direct service to Gingakuji Temple on the 203. And the Imperial Palace is right across the street. Restaurant was very good. Wifi worked fine. Staff's language ability was limited.

The hotel was big and could appear luxurious but it wasn’t, the rooms were old and musty. Not the best place, it wasn’t horrible. It did its job. I think the worst part was how rude the male staff was there, we seemed to inconvenience them a lot, seemed annoyed and not welcoming at all. No amenities really available. The location is okay, 10 min from a subway station, 3 min from imperial palace but other than that, it was not what we hoped for. We will not return.

The hotel is a 10 minute walk from the subway which was convenient. Check in was quick and the staff were very nice. The room is a bit outdated - you need an actual key to open the door and need to return it to the front desk every day. The smoking room really reeked of smoke even for a smoking room it was not aired out at all and the temperature was way too hot, we had to adjust ourselves and leave for a few hours for it to be tolerable. There is no laundry facility onsite even though Google says otherwise. Not a lot of dining options available in the area.

The property is an older style wedding venue and conference centre. There is no laundry service, no room service and they only give you one key. If more than one person needs the key you leave it at the front desk and ask for it when you get back. It is an actual key. There is no shuttle bus or local transport bus station outside. The nearest subway station is a 10 minute walk. The nearest bus stop is a 15 minute walk. Walking to Kyoto station is about an hour. If you don't want to walk don't stay here. The area is beautiful. Across from the palace and the side streets have lots to offer. The staff were ok but looked tired like the rest of the place and the corridors have a funny smell. 5 days here was a challenge.

Since the moment we arrived the staff at the counter was really unhelpful! We had two reservations and we asked if it was possible to have the same room but they were denying any change...until we payed extra! They denied breakfast even though I especifically asked for that in Expedia and we had to pay again plus several extras...after traveling the whole day you prefer to pay instead of being denied access to your room, right?
At breakfast, if you ask for a simple change you have to pay extra...
I understand it's Japan and my Japanese is not the best, but in an international hotel they should have people speaking some English...not in this hotel, sorry.
I was excited to be in the same hotel I stayed 11 years ago and celebrate our anniversary but it was my last time there...unless you refund all the extras you asked me to pay. Your call

The hotel is in good condition and room cleaning is done every day (not the case everywhere in Japan), which is very nice. The room is a decent size for Japan, it didn't feel cramped, and there is a closet for you to put your clothes in. It's also quiet, I never hear any noise from outside.

For breakfast you have a choice between Japanese or western sets, which do not really change day by day. I stayed here for a week, so it got repetitive. This is a hotel that has the facilities to hold weddings, banquets, has a restaurant with garden view, and a separate coffee shop. They could have a buffet breakfast.

The hotel in a quiet area and is right across the road from the imperial palace. It doesn't have many shops and restaurants around it. Dining choices are quite limited, you will have to walk about 10 min to get to an area with some dining options.

I absolutely loved this hotel. It was a perfect size - not too small and not too huge, so it was spacious but small enough to be intimate. The rooms were a good size, very comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was the best part - from location with big windows and a pond with fish - to taste which was all absolutely delicious - to lovely staff. All staff were wonderful, but I have to say a special thank you to Takato Matsudaira, who was so friendly and went out of his way to be helpful regarding my luggage. The area was very safe. I enjoyed visiting the wild boar shrine next door and walking through the palace gardens every day. The area was quiet, which was perfect for me, and you could access stores and restaurants within 10 mins walk. I would definitely stay at the Kyoto Garden Palace again.

Kyoto Garden Palace Hotel Review

The hotel is located just across the street from the imperial palace and a short taxi ride to the Gion, geisha district or the train station. There are also two nearby metro stations. The rooms are nice but a bit small. There are several temples nearby but few restaurants or shops. The breakfast offered by the hotel is good value. the staff is friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay.

Nice hotel close to the park

Affordable and spacious rooms close to the palace park. A nice 30min walk to Kyoto university.

Western style rooms. Staff was friendly and responsive. Nice location - short walk to bus stops/subway. Taxis were easily called.

Best Compromise Between Price, Quality, Location

Front Desk Staff needs to be better informed about the high end tourist spots. Need more reasonable dining facilities

No lotion. Overall, the room is not bad. It’s a bit walk to the subway.

3 Days in Kyoto

I booked late and could not find a place in Gion, so I looked elsewhere, including near the Kyoto Imperial Palace, and found this wonderful hotel. The price was extremely affordable given the amenities and size of the room and bathroom.

The proximity to the Kyoto Imperial Palace and gardens/park is a strong point, as is the proximity on the north side to Ginkakuji by short taxi ride. However, if seeking a more central location, either to the train station for a quick stay or near the Gion area, the hotel is situated between two Kyoto subway stations, approximately 15 minutes in either direction, and it does take some time to get around. Otherwise highly recommended!

Strict 3pm check-in but there is luggage storage if you arrived early. Room is very hot and no thermostat to adjust. Building and rooms are showing their age. Small bathtub with slippery bottom. Located in between two subway stops and there is a bit of walking - okay in the morning but not so much in the evening after a day of going places, or if you are hauling luggage.

Staff were kind and helpful. Loved the location across the road from the Imperial Palace. Subway not too far and bus stops close. Great vintage shop up the road and many art galleries must check their times as not all open at 10 o’clock. Overall a great experience.

Great Place! & Conveniently Located

The hotel was very quiet. The room was great, except that if the key was in the slot by the door, all lights were on and none could be turned off; if they key was not in the slot, all lights were off and none could be turned on, nor could my electronics charge (i.e., they couldn't charge overnight). Staff was great; one staff member knew enough English to help me with getting a taxi the next morning and telling the driver where I needed to go. Breakfast was good. I love that the Japanese like heated toilet seats (that even worked when the electrical outlets didn't work-LOL) and have bidets. They also provided shampoo, conditioner, body wash, and a kimono to wear. Very nice!

Close to public transportation, not a bad walk to downtown if you choose to do so. Furniture is a bit dated but comfortable. Rooms and facilities are kept very clean. staff speaks English and are helpful. good value for the money

Very satisfied.

Everything was great, except that I would have preferred the breakfast serving begin at 06:30 instead of 07:00.

Very Nice Hotel, bit of a walk

The hotel itself was very nice, with decent sized rooms. Wish it had been a little closer to a train station. Walk to the subway and bus stops wasn’t too horrible but got a little old after taking the trip so many times. The Imperial palace and corresponding park were very cool and nice right across the street.
