The service and staff were the absolute best! I will definitely visit again!

I will rate this hotel as 4.5 stars rather than perfect 5 stars. The minor complaints are the breakfast and the location. The Japanese breakfast here is not as flavorful as the one I have in Tokyo (another 5 stars hotel). The location is far away from high end shopping malls and the surrounding area looks like a very average neighborhood.

The Kyoto Ritz is a beautiful hotel. First class in every respect. Exactly what you would expect from a five star property.
