    overpriced sushi
    limited cocktail menu

    The staff going above and beyond is commendable.

    I was disappointed by the sushi quality. it didn't match the high price we paid. After a few disappointing dining experiences, we chose to eat elsewhere. The cocktail menu was limited and left us wanting more variety during our stay.

    comfortable room

    It was a prime choice for a brief visit in Kyoto with a reasonable price. The room was really comfortable and well-appointed. Try to explore nearby temples in the early mornings to avoid crowds.

    A few things you should know

    The calming design and attention to detail create a serene environment, capped off with scrumptious seasonal dishes for breakfast. The bar's cocktail experience is indeed a delightful treat!

    Room service could use improvement, as some dishes fell short taste-wise. Don't forget to check the pricing before indulging in the restaurant.

    culinary delight
    overpriced restaurant

    Our stay was remarkable. the garden view from our deluxe room was enchanting. Daily breakfasts were a culinary delight, showcasing local flavors. The staff was genuinely attentive, making every moment memorable, especially at the spa where the treatments were soothing.

    The sushi restaurant was quite overpriced for the quality offered, and an expanded cocktail menu would enhance the dining experience.

    sushi disappointment

    My stay at the Six Senses Kyoto felt special right from check-in. The staff greeted us warmly, making us feel valued. The design throughout the hotel exuded sophistication, especially in the lobby and garden area, providing a calming ambiance. I loved the spaciousness of the Deluxe King Room. The spa treatments were heavenly and left me completely relaxed, and I appreciated the exceptional in-room breakfast service that offered both local and international dishes. One morning, I tried the matcha pancakes. they were a standout! However, the sushi restaurant didn’t meet expectations. The quality didn’t align with the high price, especially when I've had better sushi experiences elsewhere. An expanded cocktail menu would also have made our evenings more enjoyable. Despite these dining issues, I’d definitely revisit for the lovely atmosphere and service.
