Gorgeous small boutique hotel in a quieter neighbourhood in Kyoto. Staff were extremely attentive. Room was clean and spacious with lovely toiletries and spa soundtrack to play through the space if you choose. A few complimentary drinks in the fridge refreshed daily. Would go back!

The Junei Hotel Kyoto will leave you relaxed and rejuvenated. The rooms have clean lines and there is a cedar tub to relax in after a day of sight seeing. And the breakfast in the morning is not to be missed. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

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!

We stayed in the bamboo suite and would highly recommend it. We have traveled the world, and this one was of the best rooms we have ever stayed in. We loved the oversized bathtub, comfortable beds and they have wonderful hair/body/face cleaning products. This is the only hotel that I’ve preferred to use their face wash over my own. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was good, in a quiet neighborhood, and about a 10 minute walk to the bus or metro.

The staff was amazing. Extremely friendly and helpful. They planned restaurant reservations for us. Once we arrived, they found out that my wife was allergic to dairy and they contacted each restaurant telling them of this. Breakfast and dinner at the hotel was excellent and we had excellent service there.

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.

This is a really nice hotel. Well run with excellent staff. The only thing I’d say for first timers is to be aware that you are about a 25 mins walk from Gion. This is fine but becomes tiresome. The only other thing that was a slight issue was that the air con in our room was very noisy. Again not a big deal but irritating as it switches on and off all night. But otherwise it is a really nice hotel.

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!

Amazing time at the Junei Hotel. Staff were very friendly and helped us quite a bit. Front desk had excellent English as well as the restaurant staff. We had the dinner at the on site restaurant and it was beyond any meal I've had in the past. I would definitely suggest staying at this hotel!
