The hotel was elegant and breathtaking. My daughter enjoyed the magical stairs. All the staff was kind and helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. And it was nice to have either American buffet or Japanese breakfast as our options to start our day perfectly.

The Thousand Kyoto is an absolutely beautiful property that is only a few minutes walk from Kyoto Station and its surrounding vast of shops and restaurants. This is one of the most wonderful hotels I’ve ever stayed at, the service was top notch from arrival to departure. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to make their trip just that bit more special. Thank you for making my Kyoto trip very memorable!

A fabulous hotel newly refurbished. Very comfortable beds and rooms, superb service and very good quality food. Extremely convenient to Kyoto station (about 3-5 mins walk) dependent on your exit. Great gym and spa. Recommend allowing a little extra time for your breakfast as hotel is always full and consequently busy.

My husband and I had a great stay here. It was our first time in Japan and the staff were so friendly and accommodating. The super king room had a huge bed (could easily hold 4 people if needed), and a large bathroom area. The AC worked very well. The location was perfect for getting public transportation, and there were a 7-11 and restaurants within walking distance. A beautiful hotel also.
