5.8/10

I had an enjoyable stay at the Hyatt Regency Kyoto, though I found the location a bit detached from Kyoto's bustling downtown. The room was an upgrade to a corner deluxe, which I appreciated. While the service was attentive, I noticed some dining options fell short of expectations. It felt like a solid choice for a Hyatt member, but you might want to explore other dining options nearby.

Rooms

8.0

The corner deluxe room was adequate for one, but could feel cramped for more. It had a low bed and hard mattress, which was interesting. Amenities included a safe, refrigerator, and Toto toilets, though I did stub my toe on the bathroom step a few times.

Service

8.0

The check-in process was professional, and the staff were generally helpful and responsive. However, I did experience some inconsistency, as service staff seemed to disappear at times after delivering meals.

Location

7.0

While the hotel felt a bit remote, it was only a 5-10 minute taxi ride to Kyoto Station. I had to rely on taxis to reach dining options and attractions, which could become costly, especially for a solo traveler.

Dining

6.0

I dined at the Touzen restaurant twice, but I wouldn't recommend it. The food did not meet my expectations for the price point. I found it better to venture into Gion for a wider selection of dining options.

Facilities

8.0

The amenities included nice touches such as Japanese pajamas and bath essentials, and I appreciated the free bottled water. However, some items like an ironing board weren't available in the room, which was a minor inconvenience.

Breakfast was a standout, offering a good selection for a Western-style meal in Asia, although I wished for more variety. The on-site restaurants provided excellent food and mentioned a unique experience with a geisha performance during dinner.
