Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto

Our stay was absolutely incredible from beginning to end. Everything exceeded our expectations — the service, the food, the attention to detail, and the overall experience were truly outstanding. The team was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive, always making us feel welcomed and well taken care of. The quality of the food was excellent, and every interaction with the staff reflected genuine hospitality. It was a wonderful experience overall, and we truly enjoyed every moment of our stay. We would absolutely return and highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kyoto. Thank you to the entire team for such a memorable stay.

This is an exceptional property in an exceptional city. Although it has many rooms, the hotel had a boutique like feel. The hotel lives up to the high standards for luxury and service I have come to expect from most (but not all) Four Seasons properties. The garden is breath taking and they gave my children food to feed the fish in the pond, which they thoroughly enjoyed. They gave us a free room upgrade on arrival to a two bedroom, two bathroom suite, which was amazing. They also left lots of incredible treats in the room for our arrival. The only slight negative is that we had dinner in their restaurant one day and thought the food was mediocre at best and took a long time to be served. The breakfast they served in the same restaurant was much better. They had a lot of people the day we had lunch and so perhaps they were just over-stretched.

We really loved this hotel, especially the location, which was close to many of the sights we wanted to see. While it did not feel quite as exclusive as expected, it absolutely delivered on luxury, and what truly set it apart was the personal service. Everyone we interacted with felt genuinely warm and approachable, more like friends than staff, without any sense of pretension. Our room was beautiful and overlooked the koi pond, which added a very calming, distinctly Kyoto touch. The tea ceremony was a highlight of our stay and is highly recommended. Breakfast at the restaurant was also excellent, and the small details, like providing printed taxi instructions with our destination, really stood out and made getting around effortless.

Kyoto became even more dreamy once we entered! Serene and breathtaking! Full of highlights and magic at every turn. There was something for everyone - big or small. We cannot wait to return.

Been to Kyoto many times but my first time staying at Four Seasons Kyoto. Took advantage of the offer 3rd night free (very good deal)! Best in class service from the concierge to guest services to front counter teams. Stayed in the One BR Premier Heritage Garden Suite, my kids loved it (huge living room & dining areas & super cushy double beds). View from room is the beautiful hotel garden with autumn changing leaves at the time of my stay. Food quality in hotel stays consistent to the Four Seasons global chain branding. Made some external restaurants bookings with the concierge help, it was effortless & efficient. Thank you for the awesome service, my family had one of the best hotel experiences here at Four Seasons Kyoto.
