I would recommend this hotel to everyone
Great boutique hotel it is our second time experiencing the brand and it is great. The breakfast was amazing every day. The rooms are large and well kept. The cleaning service was excellent as expected. Hotel is very well located in a friendly and walkable neighborhood, however hotel personnel is always ready and able to assist with transportation.

We spent 4 nights at the hotel and we love the staff from reception desk to the breakfast area and special lounge. I will definitely return to this delightful hotel. It is also located at a great place in Kyoto and many activities are walkable distance. Hotel personnel is really looking for the most to help you. After a bad fall in a tour, when I returned to the hotel, they provided big I e-pockets which helped much. Thank you Fauchon for this wonderful memories you helped us create. To the next time!

Excellent Excellent Excellent 6 🌟
I’ve been to 53 countries in the 🌏. I was very impressed with this hotel. First starters , the location of the hotel is perfect. It’s centrally located to everything (walking distance to major shops, old town etc. the room is spacious with a huge comfortable bed. Upon every arrival you’re greeted with a hand towel and a bottle of water (brutal summer months)
The STAFF is amazing. They go above and beyond to make sure the client is taken care of. Every single need of mine was met with no complains.
I have to give a HUGE thanks to Jin . She’s of the front desk managers. I can’t explain the measures she went through for me to get all of the things I needed. From Baccarat items to last minute dinner reservations. The hotel should be grateful to have her as an employee and I hope whoever reads this message from the hotel will acknowledge her accordingly.
Also, thanks to the other manager (male) I can’t remember his name at the moment however, he was always amazing in assisting with client relations. He recommended a few places to visit in Osaka.
Lastly, the hotel restaurant is superb. Excellent breakfast and lunch. They also have a small shop downstairs upon entering the hotel.
I would definitely recommend this hotel. I’m actually looking forward to staying here upon my next visit to Kyoto. Thank You hotel Fauchon and keep up the excellent customer service.

Great stay in Kyoto
Fabulous stay. Rooms are on the smaller side but well done and comfortable. My only recommendation is that they have an iron in the room; the steamer is pretty much useless.

Our go-to hotel in Kyoto!
This is our 2nd time staying at Fauchon. And we will stay here again. Service is very good. Beautiful and spacious rooms,. The bar cabinet is full of varieties of complimentary cookies. If you can, add the breakfast option. It is served on the 10th floor and has a great view of the famous temple and mountain ranges. The food is simple and of high quality. if you stay more than 2 days, they will provide alternate menu in case you need more variety.
