Serene Spa Experience

“During my stay at Hotel The Mitsui, I had the opportunity to indulge in the beautiful thermal spa. The space was elegantly designed and offered an incredibly relaxing atmosphere. I felt rejuvenated after spending an hour in the private onsen. The serene environment made it a perfect escape, enhancing my overall experience.” view full review

Culinary Delights

“The dining options at the hotel were a highlight of my trip. I savored the traditional Japanese breakfast, which was good and full of flavors that captured the essence of Kyoto. The highlight was definitely the Italian restaurant, where I enjoyed a delicious meal paired with a fine garden view. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented.” view full review

Luxurious Room Amenities

“The room I stayed in was nothing short of fine. I loved the modern Japanese design that made the large space feel both open and cozy. The bedding was exceptionally comfortable, and the high-quality linens were a treat. Additionally, the turndown service was incredibly thoughtful, with little touches like carefully placed slippers and a lip balm on the bedside table.” view full review

Great Entertainment Options

“What impressed me the most was the variety of media and entertainment options available. The hotel provided a wide selection of English TV channels, which was a refreshing change from other places I had stayed in Japan. This made relaxing in my room after a long day of exploration much more enjoyable.” view full review
