I chose “Garrya Nijo Castle Kyoto by Banyan Tree” as my Accommodation when visiting the Gion Matsuri (Saki Matsuri). I live in Nishinomiya, so it’s close enough for a day trip, but since it was the Gion Festival, I decided to stay overnight. After considering several options, I finally chose Garrya, which I’d been curious about for some time. I checked in in the evening, and as soon as I passed through the entrance and reached the lobby, I was breathless at the beautiful green garden framed by the large windows. I was even more moved by how the trees were reflected on the large stone table—it felt almost like being in an art museum. The calm atmosphere instantly eased my fatigue, and I truly felt glad I had chosen this place. My Room was on the third floor—Room 305 (Nijo Castle View Twin). The reflection of greenery even appeared above the window, creating an unexpectedly spacious feel that really impressed me. The use of stone flooring also gave it a wonderfully solid, luxurious presence. The raised area featured black tatami mats—something we Japanese guests especially appreciate. From the furniture and cushions to the bedding, every detail felt carefully considered, and I was completely satisfied. For breakfast, I chose their “Wellbeing” concept option—it was genuinely delicious and deeply impressive. The staff were flawless as well. Although it may seem like a high-end property at first glance, there were many younger staff members too, and their warm hospitality made me want to chat with them naturally. You’re sure to have a wonderful stay here.

This was our first stay during the Obon holiday season. After sightseeing in the scorching heat, we checked in early, and from the moment we walked in, the interior was stylish. We could enjoy drinks at any time we liked, and above all, we were amazed at how pet-friendly this Hotel is in every way. We were also able to use a pet cart at dinner time, which made it easy to enjoy a comfortable walk and meal. The hot dogs were delicious, and breakfast was stylish with generous portions—we were very satisfied. We would be even happier if dinner service were available as well. All of the staff were kind, and we would love to stay again.

Although it’s a little away from the main tourist areas, there’s a bus stop nearby with frequent service, and the subway station is also close, so it was convenient for getting anywhere. The complimentary drinks such as coffee were also appreciated. Given the surprisingly reasonable price, I can’t really complain, but if I had to mention one thing: since we stayed two nights, it was a bit disappointing that breakfast was exactly the same boxed meal both days.

My daughter-in-law’s parents live near Nijo Castle, and we stayed here to coincide with her second homecoming childbirth. Parking was free, and although there was a minor issue in the Room, it was handled promptly. The free shuttle bus to Kyoto Station was also very convenient. I’ve stayed overnight in Kyoto many times, and I truly feel we should have used this place much sooner. The area in front of the banquet hall on the second floor was spacious as well, and even though it was scorching hot outside, we were able to relax and play with our two-year-old first grandchild—making this a stay we are deeply grateful for.

Even during the Obon season, we were able to stay at an affordable price even on short notice, and it was great—the Room was spacious and clean, and we could also enjoy drinks in the lounge. It was a very convenient Hotel close to the station, with easy access via both JR and the subway. I would like to stay again next time.

I stayed here again following last year. The property is very clean and well maintained, and the services are excellent, including breakfast, complimentary curry, and the large public bath. There is a bus stop right in front, with a car rental shop and convenience store nearby as well—an ideal location. The staff were also very courteous. I will definitely stay here again. I’ll be recommending it to friends!

I stayed on the Plan with a sauna. Check-in was at 3:00 PM, but I arrived around 1:30 PM to leave my luggage, and I really appreciated that you were able to show me to my Room right away. I booked a standard Room, and it was next door to the sauna Room, which made it easy to go back and forth and very comfortable. The sauna was very clean, and I was happy that the amenities were Aesop and the hair dryer was ReFa. It was also nice that we could bring the welcome drink back to the Room, which helped us relax. The sauna itself felt great and was very relaxing. The only disappointment was that we were told we could enjoy the sauna from check-in until check-out, but when I tried to use it in the morning, the power was off and I couldn’t use it. There wasn’t an instruction manual either; since it had been running automatically when we arrived, I didn’t know how to operate it and felt a bit stuck. Other than that, everything was very comfortable, and I think this Accommodation is highly recommended for sauna lovers.

We stayed for one night. Thank you very much! A very courteous foreign staff member assisted us and kindly asked, “Do you have a toothbrush?” The Room, bathroom, and bed were all extremely clean, and there were hangers and deodorizing spray as well—excellent value for the price. The Plan we booked included drinks, which were in the refrigerator and properly chilled. Great value for the price. If you’re unsure about where to stay based on price, this Hotel is highly recommended! The Room was quiet, and so was the refrigerator. There are also plenty of power outlets by the bed.

It felt like home in a way, being able to spend time with the whole family, talk, and take care of each other. However, the spacious bath with a jacuzzi experience, the warm floor heating, and the beautiful white wood Japanese-style room were extraordinary happy experiences. There is also a shopping street within walking distance where you can shop for groceries, and the vegetarian breakfast was delicious. The concierge was really kind and helpful; I highly recommend this wonderful Room! Thank you very much for all your help!

We stayed with three people. The charm of the traditional townhouse is very nice. Also, the tatami mat and the low table in the living room are great. You can stretch your legs and relax comfortably. My wife said it was the most relaxing property she had stayed at in recent years and the most comfortable. Unfortunately, it started raining in the evening, so we decided to avoid going out for dinner, but we were able to take out from Sanjo Shopping Street and enjoy it leisurely. Sanjo Shopping Street is nearby, and JR Nijo Station and Subway Nijojo-mae Station are not too far, so I think access to Gion and Kyoto Station is not a problem. The bath was also very nice. The bathtub is spacious, which was very good for our tired bodies. My daughter praised it highly, saying, "They have high-quality shampoo and lotion." It seems you can take a bath while looking at the garden, and I think it would have been great if we could have taken a leisurely bath during the day. There was an earthquake while I was bathing, which was a bit of a surprise. The bedroom on the second floor was also very spacious, and we were able to get plenty of sleep. The only disappointment was that I don't think there was a washlet in the toilet, but if there had been, it would have been a perfect score. Anyway, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in a Kyoto townhouse. I definitely plan to stay again on my next trip to Kyoto. Thank you for your hospitality.

It was a shame that there wasn’t a microwave in the Room, but everything else was excellent!! The shower in the bathroom was especially interesting!!

The indoor area was very spacious and the facilities were well-equipped, allowing for a comfortable stay. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

The room was clean, the front desk service was fine, and the price was a great value. It was a bit disappointing that there were no pajamas, but the slippers were comfortable terry cloth rather than flimsy non-woven ones. Drinks were limited to tea; it would have been nice to have coffee as well. Seiyu is nearby, which is convenient.

It was the first day of a three-day weekend, but it was very cheap, so I made a reservation. The room was very clean and more spacious than I expected. Although simple, there was also a stove, making it perfect for a long stay. The front desk staff provided very courteous service. I would like to visit again when I go to Kyoto.

This was my first time staying in a vacation rental. The interior was new and spotless, and the layout was a perfect fit for three people. We planned to get takeout meals, so it wasn’t an issue at all. The bath was great, and there’s also a public bathhouse nearby, which we really enjoyed. It was quiet and relaxing, and although I contacted you late because I wasn’t sure about the checkout rules, I truly appreciate your warm response. Prices will likely go up during the sightseeing season, but if it fits our budget, we’d love to stay again.
