Kyoto Granbell Hotel

Kyoto Granbell Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely hotel. Great location. Staff very friendly. Room was compact .. as described by the hotel .. the bed is huge and really comfy and as the photos show on the website it literally fits wall to wall. This means you literally have to climb in and out from the bottom. Minimal hanging room for essentials and just enough room to have our suitcases on the floor. Room is modern and has amenities such as kettle / hairdryer. Small sofa to sit on. Would definitely recommend "

When is the best time to go to Higashiyama Ward?
The best time to visit Higashiyama Ward is during spring (March to May) and autumn (September to November), when the weather is mild and the natural scenery is at its most appealing.

Spring in Higashiyama Ward is particularly special due to the cherry blossom season, typically from late March to early April. The temples and historic streets, such as Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka, are framed by blooming trees, offering picturesque views. This period is ideal for couples and those interested in photography, as the soft light and blossoms create a romantic and memorable setting.

Autumn, from late October to early December, brings spectacular autumn foliage. The maple leaves turn brilliant shades of red, orange, and gold, especially around Kiyomizu-dera Temple and the Philosopher's Path. This season is superb for travellers who enjoy scenic walks and cultural exploration in comfortable weather, as the cooler temperatures make it pleasant to explore the many temples and gardens.

While summer (June to August) can be hot and humid, and winter (December to February) can be cold, both offer fewer crowds and a different perspective of Higashiyama.
