I loved our stay at Junei Hotel Kyoto. Our room was wonderfully clean, spacious, and I loved the Hinoki private bath. The breakfast each day subtly changed and was an excellent add on! The bed was super comfortable and the amenities were a bonus. Lastly, the towels were the softest and more comfortable that I’ve ever felt!

The Junei Hotel in Higashiyama was one of the most beautiful and classy hotels that we ever stayed!! The hotel room was so special, and truly zen!! (with zen like music playing in the room). The staff was so kind, helpful and professional! The Japanese Breakfasts were the most elegant breakfasts we’ve ever had. They were so thoughtfully prepared and served!! The location was excellent! We’d highly recommend Junei Hotel in Higashiyama!!!

Great hotel, staff, and location. The street is quiet and peaceful which is nice as other parts of Kyoto can be hectic. However, the hotel is walking distance from many areas and very central. The staff was great. I would highly recommend booking a rooftop session to use the sauna and cold plunge on the roof. The breakfast was traditional Japanese and delicious.

The Junei Hotel Kyoto is a serene gem, close to everything but peacefully tucked away. Our Deluxe King Room was a beautiful blend of tradition and comfort, with tatami floors, a spacious onsen-style bath, and lovely skincare. The staff were absolutely wonderful: warm, friendly, and so helpful. We did not want to leave, will come back for sure!

Clean rooms. Well appointed with coffee/tea/snacks and mini bar. Very relaxing. Restaurant was very good for dinner and traditional Japanese breakfast (NOT Western style if that is your hope) walkable to transit, convenience stores, restaurants and some traditional temple sites.

Junei is not a full service hotel. Staff is kind. It has 10 special rooms for lovers & couples. Not centrally located. Expedia did this in Dubrovnik also. They advertised a hotel & I was in a house with an Australian couple. This is unfair, Expedia. There are other services we can move to!
