Lovely hotel. Although not located near downtown, it was a great location by the JR station. The hotel tax upon check-in threw me off, as I assumed all my fees were covered with the reservation.

Nice that it’s close to the Umekoji-Kyotonishi train station which is just 1 strain stop away from the main Kyoto station. I also like that the place is clean. Our beds are cleaned and neat everyday despite the mess we left from such a busy day outside the hotel. Thirdly, I like that the showers have very good water pressure. It’s just too bag that we didn’t get to see and use the public bath they have.

Excellent hotel in a safe and quiet neighbourhood. A stone's throw away from the Umekoji train station and a few minute walk from bus stops. The Family Mart downstairs is very convenient. Room is very spacious for a family of 4. Breakfast buffet was good. Staff was very nice and attentive. Onsen was clean and a good first experience for the kids. Facilities are clean and well kept. Would definitely stay here again.

Good service, kind of upscale bath products and pajamas. Good use of space for coffee/tea. Everything looked good inside. Didn't like the outside area near it's entrance. But very easy access to bus and trains, right next to the hotel.

Our recent stay in Kyoto, Japan was absolutely magical! From start to finish, the hotel exceeded all our expectations. We were celebrating our 7th anniversary, and Koji, the incredible Assistant Manager, along with his team, made it unforgettable with their warm congratulations, a thoughtful gift, and an upgrade to a stunning corner room on the highest floor! The level of hospitality and attention to detail was truly next level. Our room was spotless, and housekeeping refreshed our amenities daily, ensuring everything was perfect. Breakfast buffet was a delight—delicious food with lots of options, a clean and cozy dining space, and the most attentive staff! Convenience was another highlight: a Family Mart right next door with its own hotel entrance, making it so easy to grab snacks or essentials. The location couldn’t be better—just a 3-minute walk to the JR station, next to a gorgeous city park, and a stone’s throw from amazing attractions like the Train Museum (4 mins), the aquarium (5 mins), and Kyoto Station (18 mins) For families, it’s super kid-friendly with so many activities nearby! Oh, and we *have* to rave about the on-site BIG Public Bath for hotel guests. Soaking in the relaxing bath every evening after exploring Kyoto was the ultimate treat. 🛁 We feel so lucky and grateful for this incredible experience. Huge thanks to Koji Sato and the wonderful staff—you’ve made this trip one for the books! 🌟

I had a great time staying at The Royal Park Kyoto Umekoji! My friend and I stayed for four nights. It is located in a nice quiet area of Kyoto and it is directly across the street from Umekoji station (just one station stop away from Kyoto Station). The cleanliness of the room left a little to be desired. There was still a few pieces of hair on the floor from previous guests, but nothing too abhorrent. The staff were very friendly and the rest of the hotel amenities were great. The onsite public bath was very relaxing and you could check the occupancy status of the baths from the TV in your room which was very helpful! I would consider staying here again on future trips to Kyoto.
