This is an amazing little hotel. Right in the heart of Kyoto, but you'd never know it. So peaceful and quiet. Staff is incredibly helpful . Each room is uniquely designed and absolutely beautiful.

We loved this hotel! Our room was very beautifully designed. The Japanese breakfast was perfect.

Amazing suite, fantastic breakfast, lovely staff. Highly recommend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Screen Hotel. The hotel has a unique character and atmosphere that made our visit memorable. We especially loved the restaurant—the dinner was truly outstanding and worthy of a five-star rating. The food, presentation, and service were all exceptional. We highly recommend both the hotel and its restaurant to anyone looking for a special experience.

We stayed in Kyoto for just a few days. We wanted to be close to transit, shopping, restaurants but out of the main streets that were always busy. This offered the perfect combination. Our room was spacious with a lounge area complete with a record player and a variety of records to choose from - great for rest periods. The hotel staff were friendly, kind and the most helpful we experienced in our travels across Japan. Will return here if we ever visit Kyoto again.

This hotel has the perfect location and size. It is a little bit tired, though the rooms are very interesting. Would stay again.

Realistically, for most people, this hotel will probably give you the biggest room you'll get in Japan. We had a room with a large, low, bed, two armchairs and a table and a good size wardrobe to keep things organised, as well as the room having a lot of free space to organise ourselves. It was a genuinely stunning room too - sort of traditional looking but with modern conveniences. The bathroom was also huge, with a shower and a jacuzzi bath. The layout of the hotel is a little bit odd - our room was technically the same floor as the road but the way you're meant to go involves going to the basement level, through reception and up some stairs (there's a shortcut through a door marked staff only which you may end up nipping through if you're on that floor...) - there was a rooftop bar but it was closed when we tried it. Staff were all very nice and incredibly helpful. The included breakfast (we went for western style) was varied and delicious. Location wise I would say it's pretty good - you're not in the hustle and bustle of downtown Kyoto but it's very walkable and there's a bus route nearby from Gion. There's a metro station roughly 10 mins walk down the side of the imperial palace grounds. Laundry is service only, no machine but if you need simple washing facilities there's a good laundrette about mins away that takes around an hour - leave your clothes and walk around the national park. Overall I'd definitely stay here again.

One of the most beautiful hotel rooms I’ve ever stayed in. Want to come back just to see all the other designs. Great location not in a major tourist areas, but still very walkable and an easy busy to Fushimi Inari and Arashiyama would 100% recommend.

Amazing hotel! It was way above our expectations, the rooms are very large and super comfy. The hotel gives a super relaxed vibe, and everyone from the hotel staff is super lovely, helpful and welcoming. The hotel is within walking distance from most attractions in Kyoto, and within ~20-30min public transport from the train station and further attractions. Can’t recommend enough!
