This is my second adventure at the Thousand Kyoto, and while it may not have been as long as my first stay, the experience was nothing short of magical—if not even more spectacular!
The staff here are incredibly friendly and professional, creating an atmosphere that feels like home. We paid for an upgraded room and it was immaculate and spacious, with a lovely corridor area that adds to a much bigger space!
But what truly made this visit unforgettable was a delightful reunion with a staff member, Hikaru-san. During my first stay, he had been in charge of our luggage, and his warm greetings, always by name, made us feel so special.
Fast forward seven months, and the moment we stepped into the hotel, there he was—Hikaru-san, the first person we bumped into! He greeted us instantly by name, like we were longtime friends! I wasn’t surprised to hear he was promoted; he truly deserves every bit of recognition!
While the hotel itself is phenomenal, it's dedicated staff like Hikaru-san that infuse a personal touch, making it an extraordinary experience.
Since my last visit, I’ve recommended this gem to at least three colleagues and friends, and they all rave about it being one of their standout highlights! What an amazing place to return to!
