Exceptional Hotel
The Minato hotel was a highlight of our trip. It is conveniently located, has all the amenities, and the breakfast is the perfect way to start the day. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was nice and warm with good water pressure. The staff were an unbelievable resource in navigating Kyoto, were always so kind and helpful. Their recommendations time, and time again, led us to restaurants and activities that became favourites of the trip. Would love to stay here again.

Would stay again!
This hotel was a great find, with only 7 rooms in total you really get a personal service. The staff are lovely and will go out of their way to help you. Free breakfast is an added bonus. The rooms are nicely decorated and a fair size with a nice modern bathroom. The hotels location is central Kyoto, 20 min walk to Kyoto station and around a 20 min walk to imperial palace.

A perfect choice
The hotel is ideally situated to explore Kyoto. It’s also in a residential area and you really get a feel for daily life. The hosts can’t do enough for you. I shall certainly return when I’m Kyoto. Thank you.

Great design + superb service
We had a great stay. The manager could not have been more helpful, the rooms are beautifully designed and very comfortable and the complimentary breakfast was great. Within easy walking distance of Nishiki Market and a bunch of great restaurants. I can't recommend this place enough.

Small but good hotel with friendly staff
Minato is tucked away on a Kyoto side street but close to busier streets with amenities, although restaurants and bars close to hotel. The room was small but comfortable, like many Japanese hotels. The bathroom was very good. Koichi, the hotel manager, was very kind and helpful. Overall, a very good value.
