We had a wonderful time in Japan! Everything was seemless and well organized. Since this was our first time in Japan, we much welcomed the ease of not having to arrange everything ourselves. In particular, it takes some time to figure out the public transportation and there are not very many english speaking people outside of big cities so having had some things pre arranged helped a lot! The choices of accomodcation, activities and timeline were perfectly suited for us.
We had an unforgettable trip and will use Kim Kim again!
Thank you!
Hotel Reviews
We loved the comfort feel. Hotel is lined with tatami floors throughout and it was so much fun to stroll laisurely in pajamas and socks (or barefoot) to the onsens in the morning, get a hot matcha in the lobby and sit for a breakfast all without having to change to regular clothes! Staff is very respectful and friendly. There is a free popsicle station in the afternoon and free noodles snack before bed. Location is fair. It is relatively close to the train station, but if you want to spend most of your time around the Gion district, it is not close. The stay was very relaxing though and I would opt for this hotel again since it is easy and only around 1,000- 2 ,000 Yen by taxi to get anywhere you need. We made a couple of out of Kyoto day trips during our stay and the location was very convenient for this as well.
Hotel staff was amazing, breakfast buffet was diverse with plenty of western meals options.
Nice location and beautiful spa facility. We opted for the traditional tatami floor bedrooms building. It was a great experience, but the hotel wing had notable fishy smell that was at times overwhelming. Would opt for the main building with standard beds next time. The gardens were fabulous!
