The property was excellent. The only thing that bothered me was that I could very clearly hear the room above ours. They weren't being exceptionally loud; but I could hear them walking around, moving furniture etc. I am an extremely light sleeper so this probably bothered me more than most. It was just strange as I haven't experienced this at any of our other hotels. But apart from that it was excellent! I'd definitely recommend making use of the free shuttle bus from the hotel to the nearby train station.

Property is truly 5 star . Great service, quality, and amenities. The only thing that is bothersome is that all restaurants required a reservation, including the buffet. And those reservations had to be made in person. Also, prices for food, were much higher than comparable restaurants.

A Return to Excellence: The Kyoto Brighton Hotel Experience In 2016, we had the pleasure of staying at the Kyoto Brighton Hotel, and our experience was so memorable that we chose to return in April 2024. Nestled in a serene residential area, the hotel is a stone’s throw away from the historic Kyoto Gosho and a myriad of quaint temples and shrines. Iconic landmarks such as Nijo-jo, Kinkaku-ji, and Ryoan-ji are just a short bus, subway, or taxi ride away. The hotel offers first-class hospitality and services at an incredibly reasonable price. The staff, always courteous, greeted us with warm smiles each time we returned to the hotel. Their personalized service was so exceptional that some staff members even remembered us by name, making us feel like their most valued guests. We have had the opportunity to stay at various high-end hotels in the past, including during our recent trip. However, the Kyoto Brighton Hotel stands out with its ability to provide the same level of luxury in terms of amenities, restaurants, rooms, and services. In conclusion, the Kyoto Brighton Hotel is not just a place to stay; it’s a place to return to, a place that feels like home away from home."

Very pleasant stay. Excellent cleanliness and food. Calm, great room with nice view. Compact temperature and airco with no complaints perfect bathroom conditions Small improvement needed with counseling guests at the desk. The desk staff were unable to find the quickest and easiest transportation to Kansai airport.

A really good hotel! Service was good and the rooms were nice. It’s not anywhere near Kyoto central but we made use of the free shuttle bus to and from Karasuma Oike station (Exit 2).

Kyoto Brighton is an elegant property. The staff is extremely helpful and polite. The vaulted ceiling in the hotel interior (6 floors high) gives an open feel and the lounge on the ground floor serves excellent desserts and beverages. Parking is easy and you are in walking distance from the Kyoto Imperial Palace and many delightful restaurants. We highly recommend this hotel.

Pleasant stay but the hotel caters mostly to locals. The rooms are a bit dated but large! The property somewhat far and not easily accessible to an area of restaurants. In general would pick a different hotel for the amount they charge.

What an amazing hotel, we felt like royalty as soon as we walked in. The staff is very observant, kind and helpful. Check in and out was easy and quick. The room was clean and very big. They stocked it well with everything you would need. The restaurant and cafe are delish. I definitely recommend staying at this hotel when visiting Kyoto. It is about a 11 minute walk to the train station but they always have taxis waiting to take you anywhere you may need or they’ll call a taxi for you if needed. Great service, good food and amazing hotel.
