apartment-like stay by Kamo River in Kyoto
Our room at Aoi Hotel was very spacious, with a balcony the size of some budget hotel rooms and overlooking the Kamo River. The room gets daily cleaning and restocking, but the reception/concierge is not really present (they can be summoned with a phone call from the front desk). Overall, a unique, high-quality hotel in an excellent location.

Fantastic boutique review...great for couples
Great boutique style with awesome amenities. The river view is amazing and kudos to Misato at the front desk who went above and beyond throughout the check-in process and helped translate all the little bottons in the room.

This is the place to be. Charming and very helpful staff. Exceptionally large, and comfortable room with river view. Stunning bathroom, shower and tub also with river view. Ideal location within walking distance to starred Gion restaurants and practically next door to the best bar in Kyoto, Turquoise. There is even a washer-dryer. Why stay anywhere else?

This hotel is in a great location in Kyoto. It was within walking distance of city center but tucked away on a quiet romantic street near the canal near restaurants and bars. The hotel is very Japanese - travelers will need to remove their shoes in the room. The bathroom shower was a little bit moldy, however. It was clean, but the wooden tub had some dark spots that really defy scrubbing. Otherwise, the room was spotlessly clean and perfect for a family. The washer dryer was great and easy to use and we liked have a refrigerator in the room.

This boutique hotel is stylishly designed, spacious and comfortable. It is beautifully located on a small canal and very close to markets, up-scale shopping and the Gion area of Kyoto. We loved staying there!

5 stars close to Gion!
The room was perfect and has a nice view of the river. I loved the large, clean bathroom and the fact that I could do laundry there before we left for hakone. The service is impeccable and the hotel even provides a phone for you to use during your stay. They also helped us adjust the breakfast to accommodate my mom’s allergies.

Be aware Crazy building owner
CRAZY building owner. If you are assigned to any room in the building next to the receiption. Please be aware of a crazy Japanese guy. We arrived at Aoi Kyoto at around 11am in the morning, it's was pouring rain, we settled everything and ready to explore the city around noon. we stood in front of the hotel building stone walkway to check the map 1more time. 5seconds later, I felt someone pushed me on the right, my natural instinct was moved to the left couple steps and said "Sorry". Then I turned right and saw a 40+ yr old grumpy Japanese male came out from the restaurant on the 1st floor of the building waving his arm to gesture me to move, then he followed with his broken English "MOVE! GO! Don't stand here" I replied "sorry, I am guest of the hotel" He turned his way to the hotel building, and said "Are you the owner of this building? I am the owner of the building!" I was so puzzled, I wanted to walk back inside to read the map since the rain is getting heavier. After couple steps, the Japanese guy turned to me again, and shout “I am the building owner, when I walk, you don't walk! Go!" I was like "Is this real?" He shouted again the same thing and I got so angry so I ran to the receiption next building. I told the lady at the front desk what happended, she just said "We did received some complains, maybe he is a weird guy”. Very unpleasant. He lives on the 2nd floor of the hotel and he is a chef from restaurant on the 1st floor, he ruined reputation of Japanese really.
