The staff was very nice and very friendly and helpful as they all are in Japan. The location of the hotel is very central so we were able to go into different directions for a lot of the tourist attractions that we wanted to hit. The area is safe and quiet and peaceful and right across from the imperial Palace. I liked everything about this hotel, except The pillows The pillows in many hotels in Japan feel like you are sleeping on padded bricks. I am not exaggerating, and I mentioned it to the gentleman in the front desk and he recommended that I wrap the padded bricks with bath towels. Now they felt like padded bricks wrapped with bath towels

I found the location to be central. I was able to go in any direction, not too long of a drive and be where I wanted to be. We had spent the night before ArashiYama at a Ryokan. The staff there is very pleasant. The place is kept up nicely and very clean. It’s across the street from the imperial Palace so that was quite nice The pillows were very very uncomfortable. Many places in Japan, the pillows are stuffed with rice and they are very uncomfortable. I had requested nicer pillows and was there weren’t any other kind and a good idea would be to wrap the pillow in bath towels. Other than that, everything was very nice

I had a great stay at Hotel Garden Palace Kyoto. The location was excellent—very peaceful and quiet, yet at the same time super central, with plenty of activities and places to visit within walking distance. One of the highlights is that it’s also close to the Imperial Palace, which made exploring the area even more convenient. The only downside is that the rooms really need renovation. The hotel itself is incredible, but the rooms haven’t been updated in decades, which takes away a bit from the overall experience.

This is a good choice to have the convenience of a modern hotel in a vary traditional and historic Japanese setting. The hotel is a 15 minute walk from the two nearest metro stations, but you can take the walk through the Imperial Garden. The south stop offers direct service to Kinkauji Temple on the 204 and the north stop offers direct service to Gingakuji Temple on the 203. And the Imperial Palace is right across the street. Restaurant was very good. Wifi worked fine. Staff's language ability was limited.

What I didn’t like was the bedding, which was very hard, the pillows, which were stiff, the lack of adequate air conditioning, and the entire key system, which was too complicated. The location was wonderful and the staff very helpful and polite. The grounds were beautiful, especially the restaurant which had views of a koi pond and gardens.
