Sora Niwa Terrace Kyoto

This was the best hotel we stayed at during our Japan trip. It was super clean, amazing location and had a free onsen for hotel guests to use! After a long day of discovering Kyoto it was nice to be able to relax in the Onsen. Room was nice and clean too. Service was also always super friendly! Hotel also had an amazing rooftop terasse with a nice view!

Hotel’s reception is on the 9th floor where guests can have public hot spring bath. Separate gender. They provide kimono, jacket and wooden clogs to walk around. Coin laundry at basement. Free drink from 1600-1830 hr at the rooftop bar. View is amazing with sunset. Hotel is located centrally to the temples and two stations.

Comfortable stay with an impressive terrace on roof top where you can chill out with the view of Kyoto while soaking your feet, so comfy! Bar time in the evening at the terrace. Small hot bath area yet peaceful ambience. Small room but well equipped. They suggest to store the luggage under the bed but personally found that it isn't practical for big luggage. Otherwise the mattress is comfortable and the provided amenities are all fine for the stay. Good location even department stores, shops, restaurants, public transportation, attractions, Gion and etc are in walking distance but still silent enough and I had a good stay here. Also taxi stop is just right in front of the hotel entrance. Luggage can be store after check out but please check with the time for picking up with the staff.
