Perfect Stay at Kyoto Brighton Hotel Everything about this hotel was good! The staff provided outstanding service — very polite, professional, and always ready to help. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The location was challenged — we had to get a taxi to get to the metro and train stations, but the hotel made reservations so we can get in our tour on time.

We had a pleasant stay at the Kyoto Brighton. Rooms are spacious and the property is well maintained. Restaurants were very good. Our only complaint was that the beverages in the room refrigerator appeared complimentary but found out at checkout that they were not. Maybe a sign would help.

From the moment I stepped onto the premises, the Kyoto Brighton Hotel was a beautiful experience. The staff were friendly and helpful; the room was spacious, comfortable, and well-appointed with everything I needed, plus lovely little surprises including a spray to freshen up my travel clothes, and a kit for preparing my own matcha. I ate at the onsite restaurant, which was delicious and had great value. I cannot recommend this place enough.
