Kyoto Hatsune hotel was an amazing stay. The manager, Kevin, was incredibly kind and helpful whenever we needed anything. Our room was perfect and had everything we needed, including an amazing view of the city. The location cannot be beat — quiet but still conveniently located to the metro and everything we wanted to do in the city. I highly reccomend this hotel for anyone visiting Kyoto!
Brand new update room were cozy and relaxing. The train station area foods were high qualities typical Japanese romen. Love them.
The owner was super nice and easy going. He even drive us to the Kyoto main station since we had heavy luggages. Strong recommended while the 2025 World Expo is coming soon
We had a great stay here. Perfect location near the canal and river as well as subway and bus connections. Loved how quiet it was here and Kevin went above and beyond to make sure guests felt welcome and comfortable. Also the cedar bath felt so luxurious. We'd definitely stay here again in Kyoto!
Awesome close and intimate hotel. The hotel owner was super nice and the hotel was super clean and spacious. Definitely the best hotel we stayed at in Japan!
The owner was incredibly helpful and spoke great English. He even drove me to Kyoto station afterwards. The room was spacious, very clean, very nice amneties. Absolutely recommended.
Kyoto is a very peaceful place and Hatsune Hotel embodies the same spirit. Quiet and clean, the hotel is right along a little river and my room had a great view looking east toward the mountains with a Buddhist temple in view. Kevin at the front desk is very kind, happy and helpful!
Location was in a secure neighborhood away from noisy bars and restaurants. About 10-20 minute walk to most attractions and shopping centers.
The home was clean and private with a nice view of Kyoto since I was in the top floor.
Of all the hotels we stayed, this one was the best one!
The space very comfy, it has a warm aura.
Kevin is super gentle. We are so grateful with him.
The view on the window was lovely.
We had such a wonderful time in Kyoto and at Hatsune. Kevin (the owner) was very nice and helpful with any questions and recommendations for our stay.
The room was lovely and had all the amenities that you need. We will definitely come back, we highly recommend it!
Kan absolut rekommendera detta charmiga ställe. Utmärkt och lugnt läge. Fantastiskt trevlig och välkomnande personal. När jag kommer tillbaka till Kyoto ska jag bo här
