My family loved our stay at the Junei. The team was incredibly welcoming and (helpfully) English-speaking! The room was stunning - a beautiful combination of Japanese design and a plush western style room and a luxurious bathroom. I would happily recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kyoto.

A gorgeous hidden gem. The loveliest hotel I have ever stayed in. Fantastic helpful friendly staff and spotlessly clean and comfortable. The bathroom was like being at a spa. So relaxing and away from the hustle and bustle of Kyoto but easy to reach by bus. Absolutely loved it.
