My wife and I traveled to Kyoto as part of our first trip to Japan and we both agreed, without a doubt Villa Sanjo Muromachi was a - of not the - highlight of our trip. A beautiful boutique hotel with spacious rooms, beautifully decored that make you feel right at home in the heart of historic and charming Kyoto. We opted to have breakfast served to our room and specifically the Japanese version which we did not regret. The service is top notch and especially the bartender. First rate cocktails 😉 Thank you!

Beautiful Boutique hotel perfectly located in Kyoto. Only 12 rooms in the hotel so you get personalized service the entire stay. Plenty of English speakers so communication was never a problem.

Layout

The layout, at least on our floor, 3rd, was 3 rooms on the floor. Our two bed room was at the front. Our parents King bed room was in the middle with only a lightwell. Then there was a rear room. Breakfast must be arranged each day at least 24hr in advance. Love the couch in the room. Great shower and bath area. Comfortable Beds. AC works very well. Not sure if there was any individual heat or if it was a whole bldg system. Location is very convenient for getting around. In our room there wasn't good space for very large suitcases. Ther was one rack in the closet which worked ok and floor space near the couch/coffee table
