Really enjoyed our stay. The staff were warm and welcoming, and the hotel felt like a peaceful retreat—quiet, beautifully designed, and tucked away just enough from the city’s busyness. Great location too — convenient yet serene. The room was cozy, with an elegant atmosphere throughout. Breakfast was a daily highlight: beautifully presented and delicious, like edible art. The public bath was clean, calming, and a perfect way to unwind. Would happily stay again.

This was our third stay at Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Shinmachi Bettei, and it continues to be a favourite. The hotel is beautifully designed, the staff are welcoming, and the location is perfect – quiet, walkable, and full of charm. While the rooms are on the smaller side (as expected in Kyoto), they’re extremely comfortable with excellent lighting and thoughtful layout. I always feel relaxed and at ease here. The public bath is a lovely bonus after a long day exploring. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful, stylish base in Kyoto.

This was our favorite hotel in Japan! Great location, nice walk to Nishiki Market. It has a traditional and modern vibe to it. It was spacious, clean and staff were friendly and accommodating. Only thing we wish it had was more natural lighting, as the room had frosted glass. Aside from that, this hotel was perfect and we would definitely be returning!

It is a small room in North American standard but during our stay we have not felt it is small. Rather it has all the convience a thoughtful designer would put into a room. The onsite onsen helps a lot (so I did not use ensuite bath room that much for shower). The location was good and the old style facade for buildings along the street always gave us so much to look at. It is really lovely.

Staff from housekeeping, reception, and dining were exceptional!! We felt so welcomed the moment we stepped in to check in. Almost everyone was so helpful. All the staff who we’ve encountered and helped us were 10/10. We could not say enough for your exceptional service and extend our gratitude for being the best version of service. I usually do not write a review. But your staff really deserves these words of my utmost appreciation. Thank you all!!

Mitsui garden was an excellent hotel for our stay in KYOTO. Good size room with sitting area, very comfortable beds, wonderful bathroom & shower, & even had Netflix!! Staff were all very lovely & accommodating. Area is fantastic with lots of lovely restaurants & cafes near by. Short & interesting walk into shopping district & the Nishiki market. The public bath is amazing, highly recommend!! The laundry facilities were limited with only 2 machines which were always in use. We visited a laundromat near by which worked very well. We would definitely stay again at Mitsui Garden!! Wonderful week in Kyoto!!

Great location and staff. Very poor restaurant.

Beautiful hotel in a good location. Staff amazing. Restaurant way over priced (most expensive meal we have had and by no means anywhere near the best) breakfast mediocre. Needs more options for room service, we dont need a clean or towels changing but clean glasses and water top up be good. If you let them.in they change all towels.
