We stayed in the Four Seasons Room designed for a family of three at the Four Seasons Kyoto. The room features a shower door that swings to create a wet room combining the bathtub and shower. The bathtub includes a hand shower, offering versatility. Additionally, there's a Smart Toto washlet for added comfort and convenience.

We have stayed at many Four Seasons hotels and other 5 star hotels around the world, but this is by far the best. Exceptional property, facilities and service!

The property upon arrival was quiet busy, Did not feel welcomed at arrival and had to make my way to the front desk to get noticed.
The front desk agent upon check in was more interested in upselling me into suite than welcoming me to the property.

I have travelled all over and this was by far the most gorgeous, clean and friendly hotel I have been to. The staff went above and beyond with their service! I will definitely be coming again!

Excellent hospitality. Nice view from the room. However, the location is a bit far away from the Main Street. Overall, it is a superb experience and I will visit again next time.

Based on the level of service, the staff consists of what appears to be 75% new trainees. Breakfast hostess forgot to give us menus until we asked. Coffee order took 20 minutes and we had to ask again before receiving. Sushi restaurant is dismal. 1 star Michelin price but clearly outdated by 20 years. Fish quality good. Cooked dishes were heinous. 1 piece Anago nigiri sushi = 30 USD! Check-in was awkward. Definitely a trainee. Don't bother with the iPad service chat feature. They don't reply.

We had an amazing stay at the Four Seasons. We traveled with our 13 month old toddler and everybody was more than accommodating to his needs, which was very appreciated by us!
The grounds are immaculate and so serene, it is a beautiful place! The rooms are spacious and modern, with everything you might need available while there.
Highly recommend to stay there when visiting Kyoto!

Considering what this hotel costs, it’s a bit charmless, with miles long dim hallways and an utterly confusing system of elevators and entrances. The room, however, was great, the housekeeping staff very polite, and the restaurants fine, especially the buffet breakfast.

One of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed at. Our room was garden view and the most comfortable ever. The garden pond and tea house that we looked out on was both beautiful and relaxing. Everything is immaculate and the staff is helpful, warm and welcoming. In the spa I had an excellent massage and the food there is top notch. The room service staff and manager Maggie Ling were wonderful. Within easy walking distance to Temples and Museums. The Four Seasons Hotel Kyoto was a highlight of our trip to Japan.

Residence suite Room on 4th floor was spacious,elegant, and had rooftop views. Staff were courteous and efficient. Special thanks to Volter Guest Service Manager for his help. The one negative was one of the concierge, Hiromu, whose performance was not up to standard, and was close to rude.

We have stayed in many Four Seasons Hotels before, Kyoto is one of the best two in overall experience, together with Bora Bora. The service here is by far the best!
Looking forward to going back soon!

Four Seasons Kyoto is perhaps the most enjoyable hotel experience I’ve ever had in my life. I’ve stayed in fancier places, but nothing with such kind and helpful staff. The concierge was endlessly helpful in getting us to the trains we needed to take for our day trips. Almost everyday there was some fun and special gift waiting for us in our rooms when we returned. The room was cleaned for us multiple times per day. The facility is superb. The rooms are amazingly beautiful. Ours had a more “average” view of the beautiful bamboo grove next door. The steam room, gym, and baths are wonderful and lifegiving. If I had to nitpick I would say the pool is strange. It’s like it’s in a cave. Beautiful but without sunlight. The restaurant is a bit overpriced. I mean, $15 for a cup of coffee? Also the music in the hotel lobbies and such is lame. Typical elevator music. But that’s about all. Truly a beautiful hotel.
Tip: come during the low season! We got a room for $700/night in mid January which is significantly cheaper than other times in the year.

Each and every day of our eight day stay room service was not up to standard of a fine hotel. The orders were late and always always with issues. When items were forgotten the “re-do” would be met with a verbal apology but would still be incorrect when the arrived again. I called the main reception and let them know of all the specifics. Again, more pleasant apologies but no action or discount for the missing items upon the check out. It’s all about the way of handling issues. So overall the service was just ok.
