Kyoto calm, framed by courtyard gardens

On historic Sanjo Dori, Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER moves with a quieter rhythm, pairing modern comfort with traditional Kyoto touches. A glass-walled, two-story lobby lounge pulls in sunlight and greenery from serene courtyards, while minimalist rooms echo kimono-inspired colorways for a composed finish. Dining has its own signature, with Italian at curd built around fresh cheeses made daily at the on-site GOOD CHEESE LABORATORY, Kyoto City’s first in-hotel cheese lab.

We had a great stay at this hotel. Everything was clean, the staff were thoughtful and helpful and our needs were met. I want to share that the hotel smells great! I saw some recent reviews that there was a bad odor coming from the hotel. If this was a recent problem, it's been addressed. As of mid-October, everything looked new and smelled great.

Dejlig centralt. Nyt hotel. Personalet var flinke men kunne meget lidt engelsk. Dejligt med vaskemaskine på værelset, hvor der dog ikke var skabe til tøj. Ret lille fitness rum. Flot Onsen, men lidt grænseoverskridende at man ikke måtte have bådetøj på.

It's really uniquely located and has really great facilities and great staff, going above and beyond during that stay. We had a whole incident with my daughter'sphone being left behind in a car and a couple of staff members helped us locate the phone in a taxi room.
