Trouble Finding a Room in Kyoto?
With over 4,100 hotels and ryokan across Japan, JAPANiCAN.com has more rooms and more availability in Kyoto. However, during some peak weekends in November many hotels may run out of available rooms as people from far and wide flock to Kyoto to see the city in full autumn colors.
But, with JAPANiCAN, there's no reason for you to miss out! If you're having trouble finding a room in Kyoto in November, we have 3 top tips to help you out:
1. Stay in neighboring Osaka
All of Kyoto's attractions are easily accessible while staying in Osaka. Osaka Station is only 27 minutes away (JPY 1,680) from Kyoto Station by Limited Express Thunderbird train (with reserved seating), or 29 minutes away (JPY 540) by Tokaido Line Limited Express train (free seating).
Plus, while in Osaka you can take the chance to see Japan's most visited tourist attraction, Osaka Castle. Or, visit the famous Dotonbori Bridge hang out and try Osaka-style okonomiyaki and other famous Osaka dishes!

TIPS: JAPANiCAN.com also offers Kyoto morning, afternoon, and full-day sightseeing tours visiting popular Kyoto attractions, with pick-up service available directly from Osaka hotels!
2. Save money by booking a hotel + train package from Tokyo!
Our Shinkansen Tour packages use separate hotel stocks from the rest of our site, meaning that even if normal hotel availability runs low, train + hotel packages are still available! Plus, you'll save money versus booking hotel and bullet train tickets separately!
Packages including accommodation and bullet train tickets are available from JPY 14,500 for Tokyo departures, and from JPY 11,400 for Nagoya departures. One-way and early rise options are available, and a variety of hotels are offered, like the Kyoto Karasuma Hotel, New Miyako Hotel, ANA Hotel Kyoto, and more!

3. Take a one-day return trip from Tokyo
Sunrise Tours also offers day trips to Kyoto from Tokyo, allowing you to get around all the main sights in one day, and not have to worry about trying to find a hotel room!
