Hotel Fauchon Kyoto was beyond excellent and truly exceeded our expectations. The service was exemplary from start to finish. Everyone on the staff was wonderful — reception, the maître d’ at Breakfast, housekeeping, and restaurant staff all made us feel very welcome. The room was spacious, very comfortable, and beautifully maintained. The amenities were amazing. Breakfast and dinner were both fantastic, and the food was excellent throughout our stay. The hotel is also very conveniently located for exploring Kyoto. Simply put, this hotel goes beyond five stars. The best hotel experience we have had in our travels in Japan.
