Wow this property was unbelievable!!! My husband and I came for our honeymoon and from the moment we walked in they made us feel so special. Shoutout to Jenn, Yoshi and Mizuki for making our stay extra special. They all made such nice personal touched throughout our stay which made it that much better. 12/10 stars thank you so much for providing an experience we’ll never be able to forget.

Our experience at Six Senses Kyoto was extraordinary from start to finish. Every detail felt thoughtful, personal, and beautifully tailored to our family.
What truly made our stay unforgettable was the outstanding care from the Kids Club team —Saki and Kaori. They went above and beyond for our 8-year-old son, creating moments of joy, learning, and connection that he will never forget. From fun activities to teaching him the art of origami, they brought so much warmth and magic to his days. Their kindness and attention made our stay feel deeply special.
The reception team was equally impressive — attentive, welcoming, and always ready to help with anything we needed. Every interaction felt genuine and gracious.
Six Senses Kyoto is a sanctuary of beauty and calm, but it’s the people who made it truly exceptional. We are grateful for this experience and can’t wait to return.

Loved it!
The most amazing hotel with the most attentive staff! Our experience all around was amazing. Of course check in was great and the property itself is beautiful (with great room service) but the staff going above and beyond is what makes this a true 5-star property. My husband tore his favorite jacket on a night out in town and the hotel staff was able to source a vendor to fix it for us overnight before we flew out. We made all restaurant reservations through the hotel concierge because they were incredibly helpful and detailed (and gave great recommendations). That is rarely my experience; yes, even at 5-star hotels. Would absolutely return again!
