We enjoyed our stay at the Gate Hotel Kyoto immensely. We stayed in a Triple Room which was a good size room. The breakfast was excellent. They serve traditional western breakfasts but they also serve Japanese style breakfast as well (up to 30 per day) which was excellent. The hotel is centrally located near shopping and the Gion District. We also enjoyed the Shimabura Tayu show which showcases one of 5 Tayu (similar to Geisha or Oiran) that exist in all of Japan! What a treat that was to see and it was completely free for hotel guests. Will definitely come back!

Beautiful art hotel in Kyoto
Such a beautiful hotel with extremely helpful and friendly staff, a wealth of amenities and facilities and central to the shopping district. Our room even came with its own little art installation which was a pleasant surprise. On my Japan trip, ive had to do a lot of hotel hopping and decided i would treat myself in Kyoto and im so glad i did - The Gate Hotel Kyoto is one of my favourite hotel experiences and i will 100% be staying here again the next time I'm in Kyoto. Throuughly recommend to all travellers and a massive thank you to all the hotel staff - Two thumbs up!

We stayed in the classy king room which was very large as per Japanese hotel rooms. Had a nice view out as well. The beds were comfortable and the start was pleasant. It did lack a bit in terms of what you got for the money paid. Additionally, it was the only hotel room in Japan where we had to check out at 11am compared to the 12pm that we were offered in every other property. Overall, convenient and comfortable stay, but probably not value for money.

Absolutely incredible hotel. The breakfasts were amazing - definitely try the Japanese option, 27 small fancy dishes - incredible. Drinks in the evening and performances!!!! I've never stayed at a hotel that included first rate performances (ie. Geishas, and unfortunately we missed it but drummers too)! Also, it's in a fantastic area to stay, - shopping promenades across the street "Nishiki Market - ie. Kyoto's kitchen", tons of restaurants, walkable to shrines and the Gion district. Very clean - first rate. I'd definitely recommend.

Excellent hotel. Polite staff and wonderful service. Great location close to many small restaurants and bars. Clean and well organized. Wonderful breakfast with a beautiful view on top of the hotel. Occasional performances (geisha show, etc) in the hotel.. Yoga class available too. Great lounge area with free wine small snacks, and a small outdoor fire pit.
