"Rooms were clean. Breakfast was excellent. We have 2 choices. The buffet at Le Temp or the japanese restaurant on M3. My son tried the japanese style BF set and said its delicious. If we are going back in Kyoto. I will choose the same hotel.

"As far as what I didn’t like there is not much that I can think of other than clothes are hard to dry in high humidity. This was not the hotels issue . The property was super clean, staff was fantastic, and it was connected by a short bridge walkway to the train system. Super easy to navigate all over Kyoto. We received a 1000 yen voucher per person in our room which we used at the steakhouse on property. By far top 5 dinners I’ve had, ever…I would highly recommend Hotel Emion Kyoto to anyone thinking of traveling to Kyoto. "
"The staff were all friendly and helpful, stored our luggage before check-in and after check-out, rooms had extras that came in handy, great location for train access "
