A unique hotel in a great part of Kyoto. The staff was friendly and helpful. Breakfast was top quality!
5.0 / 10.0
We had a great time at the screen in Kyoto. The staff was very friendly and our check-in/check-out was seemless. They even packed us a to-go box on our final day when we had to leave early morning.
Tip: all their suites have different designs. The staff was accomodating for us to try another suite, so we got to experience different designs. Much appreciated!
5.0 / 10.0
Fabulous quiet location which was close to public transportation. Taxis were also easily accessible. Staff was attentive. Breakfast were excellent and accommodated several food allergies. Each room is designed by a different decorator and was unique. Morning runs along the river were a great way to start the day!

The screen is a hotel with a stunning g design, the look from outside gives you no idea of the beautiful interior. All rooms are individually designed and ours was amazing. The staff are very friendly and helpful and it is one of the best hotels I have stayed in. It is slightly away from Gion but is very close to beautiful sights.

Lovely room. Staff couldn’t be more accommodating. Food in restaurant was great, both breakfast & dinner. Little bit out of way of major sights, walkable to Nishiki market.

Prime location across from the Imperial Palace grounds, beautiful room overlooking an ancient shrine, fantastic Japanese breakfast, and the warmest welcome from staff with welcome drinks and gourmet chocolates sent to our room. Large jacuzzi tub with a separate shower and a walk-in closet! The bed was huge and so very comfy, separate sitting area, too. We had no issues getting cabs right out front all hours of the day and night. The desk clerk was helpful in making dinner and spa reservations. 5 stars for this beautiful boutique hotel in the heart of Kyoto.

This boutique hotel located in the art district offers large, stylish rooms. We reserved #102, with red Japanese decor, large king platform bed, nice modern and clean bathroom. Included breakfast, western & Japanese. Centrally located, walkable to Nishiki Market and shopping district and surrounded by galleries and dining options. Across the street from Imperial Palace. Staff very attentive to our needs. the bed pillows which were too soft. Definitely recommend this hotel.
10.0 / 10.0
Beautiful contemporary hotel with a design aesthetic. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. Amazing breakfast. Staff were great and speak English to various degrees. The location, a short walk to the Imperial Palace grounds, is not the most convenient, but a 10-12 minute walk in either direction will get you to a subway stop or local train stop. Taxi service is good and fare is reasonable.

We spent 10 nights at The Screen and couldn't have chosen a more perfect place. Aside from the excellent location, the staff was amazing. Always available, helpful and friendly. The location was perfect to allow for walking to most Temples, parks, shopping, museums and restaurants. The breakfasts at the hotel was wonderful. Also, loved the rooftop lounge.

Awesome service! They even arranged to send our luggage to the next city’s hotel. The room was lovely and the breakfast was truly lovely! Only a couple odd space issues... humidifier and glass enclosed bathroom was awkward, no power outlet within reach of the bed. If they swapped the mount of the bathroom door to open out and added a longer extension cord to the desk - problems solved. Truly lovely stay over all

Wonderful hotel with great restaurants and location. There was still some construction going on which should be completed soon. Then it will be even better!
10.0 / 10.0
This is one of the largest room ive ever had in Japan. Location is perfect for us. And there are many local small shops around. They offer Nespresso coffee and Ronnefadeldt, one of my favorite tea. This place is perfect for a couple and also family members.
Like other reviews room was dark but it gaves us more mood for me and my lovely girlfriend. I strongly recommend this place!!!
10.0 / 10.0
Unusual modern hotel, very clean and staff are friendly. Everything was explained to us in detail. The room was a little dark with no option to turn the lights brighter. Hotel is across the road from the palace but all other sights are further away.

We had a great time in Kyoto. The Screen Hotel ist right at the corner of the imperial garden, in the old city. Every tourist spot within walking distance or by public transport (bus and subway). The hotel offers spacious and comfortable rooms with good beds, it serves a good and tasty Japanese breakfast (English as well). The staff is very friendly and helpful. Plenty of good Japanese restaurants just in walking minutes.

Unusual hotel - all room different. Ours was very spacious and stylish but mood lighting made it impossible to see or read anything. Huge screen TV but instructions made it impossible to use. Quiet area. Boutique shopping away from the downtown but only 25 min walk away

They provided cozy atmosphere and bigger room that my expectation. In addition, their amenities was very good
