Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto

The Four Seasons Kyoto delivered one of the warmest experiences I have had traveling for business. The staff is extremely professional and very efficient. It was apparent to me they genuinely care about their guests. The food was outstanding. The property is exceptionally well-designed, current, and meticulously maintained. The crowning glory of this property is the intrinsic 800-year-old Japanese garden. It was immaculate and timeless. The property also features some very unusual bespoke creations like the Hermes rickshaw in the lobby. The Four Seasons team delivers a truly exceptional experience in Kyoto.

Amazing service and experience. From the front desk and reception service by Eugene to Sean and Yuri in the restaurants, and so many more folks along the way. Many folks remember our dietary restrictions and preferences. Overall such a great and memorable experience

This hotel provided the perfect escape during my recent trip to Kyoto. The service was impeccable. But what truly sets this place apart are the stunning grounds. The garden is a tranquil paradise, the pool is inviting, and the spa is pure bliss. If you're looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating stay in Kyoto, look no further!

Stayed for 5 Nights. The Hotel is bigger than I envisioned particularly the long walk to the room. A bit disappointed my Amex upgrade was not available but our room was still very nice and had enough storage to unpack and hide the luggage to feel a bit like home. That feeling was reinforced every time we stepped from a Taxi after a day in Kyoto. The staff were always obliging but room make up and turn down was quite slow. I put this down to a high occupancy. The outstanding experience was the Japanese Restaurant where we dined twice. Taking only 8 it was a little difficult to book but for our second visit we nabbed a cancellation with the hotel apologising that the menu would repeat our last visit. Actually the Chef varied it on the night. Bravo. The food was as amazing as the experience and service. Don’t ask the price just go there if you are able to. Staying longer meant our faces were familiar and at breakfast we were welcomed back. A nice touch,thank you staff. If I have a criticism it was the long wait for pre dinner drinks in the bar. Often felt ignored after ordering. One bartender knew and remembered my wife’s order. One of took so long we were just about to give up. Don’t expect to walk out of the hotel into a Kyoto but after a day site seeing It was nice to come home

What is not to like from this hotel? I went on a solo trip to Japan and stayed in four 5-star hotels during my trip. This is by far the best hotel of my trip. To start with the staff. They are all incredible. From the porters to the front desk and from housekeeping to the staff in the restaurants and bars. You feel very welcome and they did everything to make my stay perfect. When I entered the beautiful room there was even a card on the bed that they put a soft topper on my bed because that's in my profile preference. The FS beds are in my opinion the best beds in any hotel. I stayed in many FS and I am always looking forward to the beds. It's like a big cloud to sleep on with more pillows than you ever need!! The rooms are immaculate. Beautifully designed with a cosy feel to it. The bathroom is well-laid out with a big bath mat and big fluffy towels. And the Diptyque shower gels and shampoo are just smelling like pure luxury. I also used the pool a lot and I really liked the atmosphere there. The hotel building and spaces are so well maintained and gives you a really luxurious feel to it. Breakfast had everything you could wish for. Even champagne (for a fee) if you want to make it even more special. Thank you Four Seasons Kyoto for making my long-awaited trip to Japan so special. You all do such a great job! Till next time!
