"An exceptional stay from start to finish. Gracious hospitality, a true time capsule with updates in all the right places. The japanese breakfast every day was truly memorable, and the coffee shop on the property was beautiful as well. I could not recommend more, 10/10 stay, worth the price! We stayed in the private cabin and it was perfect. "

"Perfect for a family of four. Beds were great, the space was plenty (especially for Japan), and it had great amenities like a washer/dryer, separate toilet and bathroom. And full kitchen. The location was also great: near a subway line and also close to the philosophers walk. Lawsons downstairs also helped This is a place for travelers who want higher end accomodations but don't need onsite facilities like a restaurant "

10/10 would highly recommend!

"Stayed at Blossom Kyoto for 5 nights and it was frankly ideal. Very clean, the amenities were terrific. Free drinks (cokes, juices, coffees, etc), popsicles and more. Washing and drying machines. A very nice guest lounge area and gym. The rooms were quite nice and loaded with all of the comforts. The stay was great. "

Incredible hotel!

"The whole time was amazing. From the moment we walked in I was amazed at the hotel itself. A must see and definitely worth staying at. Perfectly centered in the heart of Shinjuku. Loved walking to the hotel at night because it is so beautiful to the whole city lit up with lights. Only think is every room is small in Japan so don’t be surprised. "
