“Comfortable Hotel off the beaten track”

Reviewed May 5, 2013 via mobile

This was our last stop in Japan, we stayed here for one night. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, and the staff are very friendly. No concerns about noise, but I share the observations about the price of the food compared to other establishments. The kids did enjoy the opportunity to have western style dinner for room service dinner,... More

“Location is big question mark?”

Reviewed April 30, 2013

We chose this hotel due to the positive reviews on tripadvisor. The hotel itself is decent, nothing fantastic but comfortable enough. We had a room with 2 twins/doubles for 2 adults and 2 kids. The room was decent, slightly dated, but sufficiently clean and quiet. Didnt have b/fast included nor did we try it. The reason I gave it an... More

“Fantastic stay.”

Reviewed April 24, 2013 via mobile

Yep it's off the beaten path but there's a free shuttle that runs to and from a main subway every 20 minutes ON THE DOT. Subways and buses are easy to use, and we only took taxis at night if we were tired. We stayed at Brighton for two weeks while visiting our son who lives in Yamashina. Yah my... More

We are professional travelers, traveling about 4 months a year. We normally don't complain, but this time is exceptional.

“VERY VERY aged rooms, not centrally located”

Reviewed April 16, 2013

I have very mixed feelings about this hotel. It was rated as one of the top 10 hotels in kyoto and the rate was quite expensive (>250€/night). We also considered Hyatt but we went to Brighton because Hyatt seemed to be very offside. We arrived and indeed the service was really friendly (near to over-friendly). No complaints so far. What's... More

This wasn't our first choice hotel for our trip to Kyoto but it turned out to be a fantastic choice. Hotel is a lot cosier than some of the photos suggest and it is very very Japanese. English language skills were wanting in areas outside the front desk (restaurants, housekeeping, etc.) but service was excellent and staff were always attentive... More

“English speaking”

The door men, concierge, front desk, room service and housekeeping all speak good English, enough to communicate. So no problem there. The hotel was full due to sakura blossoms.
