This hotel is an absolute gem. The staff is amazing and went out of their way to help us in everything. The rooms are exceptionally well equipped and have great amenities and extras. The hotel is a short walk to Gion and the lovely old quarter as well as only a 10 minute taxi from the Shinkansen. If you are staying in Kyoto and want luxury combined with convenience at a great price this hotel is for you. Wonderful

This is top class boutique hotel in a quiet part of Kyoto. The transport links are excellent and we made use of the bus (right outside), metro, jr line, bullet train and local tram. We day tripped to Osaka, Nara and Hiroshima all from the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I would not recommend the lounge access here as we hardly used it due to limited timings and number of guests it doesn’t compare to large 5 star hotels. The breakfast is al a carte which I enjoyed. It did get a bit repetitive with only one change on the second sitting. We stayed 9 days in a suite. Lots of complimentary extras in the room.

I love staying at Fauchon Hotel Kyoto for so many reasons—the beautiful and thoughtful interior design details, the kind staff, and the location! When I checked in, Kana, who was helping me, was kind enough to upgrade me to a bigger room where I had a view of the cherry blossoms in bloom outside. Also, my room offered free snacks to take home in a cute tote bag! Because of my Expedia Silver status, I got a discount for food at the hotel, so I tried out the high tea with a friend. We really enjoyed how beautiful everything was. The hotel’s location is great in that there’s a convenience store, bus, and train station within walking distance. You can check out cherry blossoms nearby, and there are plenty of restaurants to choose from. (I found a really cute café called Kawa Café, where you have a beautiful view of Kamo River with sakura trees lining the riverbank. This cafe even has a cute cat called Kawa-chan!) When I checked out, the concierge helped me get a taxi to go to my next destination. All in all, I had such a great stay here and would recommend this hotel to everyone. I would love to stay here again someday.
