Excellent hôtel à l'extérieur

Excellent hôtel à l'extérieur de la ville mais proche du métro. Grande chambre très bien équipée. Regrets : pas de bains, les restaurants ferment à 20 h 30, attention aux arriées tardives...

Très bel hotel, très cher, situé

Très bel hotel, très cher, situé tout au nord de Kyoto, près du centre de conférence. Très grandes chambres. Service de haut niveau. Bien placé pour visiter les temples et lieux touristiques du nord de la ville. Terminus du métro à deux pas. Le concierge dispose de beaucoup d'information pratiques pour les visites ( moyens d'accès, durées, prix... ).
