HOTEL RINGS KYOTO

Our favorite hotel of our 16-day trip to Japan. Wonderful spacious room, huge and comfortable bed, hot shower and luxurious products provided. Fantastic location for exploring Kyoto — close to the sights but still quiet at night. The pyjama’s were so nice I bought a pair to bring home. Nice to have a proper coffee shop right in the lobby (though it’s better for coffee than its food).

The room was wonderful with great inclusions like a super comfy king bed, a Bluetooth speaker and the quality bathroom amenities. It was quiet too, I had 204 which was a corner room and lots of natural light. The AC / heater worked really well. The hand basin / vanity is in the room and the shower / toilet is a small cupboard style set up, but the shower itself very large and had both handheld has rainwater options. The great thing was a coffee shop downstairs with lovely food and real coffee plus other interesting drinks such a charcoal latte. And they offer Prana Chai from Melbourne! That was a surprise! Staff all very friendly and helpful. There’s also. Guest lounge / bar on the ground floor which offers books and games. It was a nice place to relax on the last day after checkout (they will hold bags too) before leaving for the airport.

Its a small hotel but has a very good location, big rooms, feels new, very clean, ok breakfast(you can choose only between 2 options vegetarian and non-vegetarian) it can be improved for sure with more choices. There is also a small restaurant at the ground floor connected to the hotel(thats where the breakfast takes place), we only ate the breakfast there, not sure how the other dishes are. The restaurant has very good coffe.

I recently stayed at this hotel in Kyoto, and overall, I had a fantastic experience. First of all, the room size was excellent, much more spacious than I had expected for Japan. It was incredibly comfortable and gave me plenty of space to relax after a long day of exploring the city. The cleanliness of the room was top-notch, and the entire hotel had a nice, quiet atmosphere with a pleasant, fresh scent throughout, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The staff were another highlight of my stay. They were extremely friendly and welcoming from the moment I arrived. They spoke good English and were always ready to help with any questions or needs. They truly went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable during my stay. The Wi-Fi was fast and reliable, which was important for me since I needed to stay connected for some work during my trip. I never had any issues with the connection dropping, which can sometimes be a problem in hotels, but not here! The location of the hotel was also very convenient. It’s close to many restaurants and convenience stores, which made grabbing a quick meal or snack super easy. Additionally, the hotel is not far from a metro station, making it a great base for exploring the rest of Kyoto. Overall, I highly recommend this hotel. It’s a fantastic place to stay in Kyoto, offering comfort, convenience, and excellent service. Just be aware of the smoking situation if that’s something important to you.

This is such a beautiful hotel. Small and intimate with a wonderful, cosy cafe 'Common Well' as part of the building. The decor is beautiful, it is very clean and on arrival we were made a Matcha Tea with a sweet treat while we were waiting for our room. The food is also delicious at Common Well.
