The rooms were a little small and squishy when you have two large suitcases to open. But the facilities, the cleanliness, the staff and the standard of decor were outstanding!

I wish I stayed for another night as 1 night is too short. The private bath is a must! I am not used to public baths so it's so nice relaxing in the comfort of your own room and getting a view of Kyoto. Do check out the public baths, the view (garden versus city view) alternates each day between the men and women's bath.

Glad I picked this hotel
Immaculate room. Professional staff. VIP treatment. Separate entrance/exit to the hotel was a plus. Having a private onsen bath in the room was fabulous. The variety of free drinks in the fridge was very nice. Upstairs Terrace with foot bath and a complimentary drink was thumbs up. Good shopping and food choices around hotel. Enjoyed my stay here.

From checking in to checking out, our stay in Sora Niwa Bettei is perfect in all aspects (room condition, location, breakfast, and most of all, the impeccable service of all of the hotel staff). This hotel is the epitome of Japanese hospitality.

8/10 Very good
17 Mar 2024
With the exception of a few things, overall our stay was very good. The onsen in the room was the highlight. Also the coin laundry facility was a blessing. Staff was attentive and kudos to Musumu who did a great job checking us in and explaining everything. As for the room, it was nice but the layout was quirky with too many doors impeding movement. The layout caused the room to be smaller than it looked in hotel photos. No place to put clothes so we had to basically live out of our suitcases for five days. Also, the cleaning crew for some reason turned off the main power switch after cleaning the last two days we were there. So when we came back to the room after being out all day, the refrigerator had gotten warm. We mentioned it to staff but never got an explanation as to why it happened. If we stay again would have to get a bigger room which of course would cost more. Highly recommend the Soraniwa Bettei.

The hotel is superb but there was no English speaking staff which is quite disappointing given the quality of the hotel I expected
