From the moment I arrived at Sowa Niwa Terrace, the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Nestled in a Kawaramachi that offers breathtaking views, the establishment has set a high bar for what a tranquil retreat should feel like. The standout feature for me was undoubtedly the terrace spring foot bath - a rejuvenating experience paired perfectly with the happy hour service that caters to every guest's need for relaxation. Complimentary offerings such as coffee, tea, and ice cream add a delightful touch to the day's activities, allowing for moments of joy that are both simple and elegant. The yukata robe provided is of superior quality, enhancing the cultural experience and ensuring comfort during the stay. The onsen deserves a special mention for its exceptional standards. It's clear that meticulous attention to detail has gone into maintaining the purity and sanctity of this traditional Japanese bath, providing an immersive and therapeutic experience. Overall, Sowa Niwa Terrace isn't just a stay - it’s a holistic experience that impressively exceeds expectations, providing a perfect blend of luxury, culture, and comfort. It’s a model for what an excellent hospitality experience should be.

The location is great, basically across the road from the station, about 5 to 7 minute walk. From there you can get to anywhere in the city quite easily. The hotel is new and much thought has been given to the decor. It is stylish and interesting with a Japanese touch. The rooms have a warm feeling with warm coloured floral carpets and wood features in the furniture. The bed linen was great and the beds extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are modern and the water pressure excellent.

The hotel is simply wonderful! Our room was simple yet well renovated, stylish, modern and new too. Totally worth the price and location is great too. The hotel is situated on a main road in Kyoto city centre, easy access to most of the places. There is a common spa, sauna and public bath area but we didn't get to use them. Would recommend to those who're traveling to Kyoto!
