Spacious, clean and cozy rooms! Hotel also makes you feel safe, close to Nijo-Jo Castle which is a must-to-visit I think. Also there is a bus stop 1 min walk distance from front door. I recommend here. 10-15 mins bus trip to Kyoto Station.

Close to metro, staff were accommodating, I was comfortable and it was everything I needed. Very clean, I enjoyed the Japanese breakfast. The bed mattress is hard but I was still able to sleep. The room is also small.

Very friendly staff, walkable to Nijo-jo castle and the imperial Palace. Right next to the city bus stop, and easy to get to from Kyoto station. We didn't stay long enough to use it, but the lending library of manga seemed a nice option, especially on rainy days.

Conveniently located Kyoto Hotel
Convenient hotel, not too far from the station and walkable to sites with bus and subway lines close by. Very small rooms, not the most comfortable for long trips with large suitcases. Staff are very friendly. Breakfast is Japanese breakfast which is great to experience but again, for longes stays, may get redundant.

Nice, clean, and modern hotel. They have lots of manga to read in the lobby that you.can sign out and take up to your room to read or even up to the little rooftop terrace they have if you want. Room was small and space efficient which suited me just fine because I wasn't going to Japan to live in a hotel. A complaint I have would be the mattress and pillow were super hard and uncomfortable, but after walking around all day that didn't stop me from passing out. Also that street sounds were pretty loud, but again, I had no problem falling asleep. All in all a decent little hotel and I would still stay again if I was back in the area.

4.5/5 Excellent customer service. The staff speaks English and they offer luggage transfer services for a very reasonable price. The room is small, but it met my need. The bed is hard, but it’s actually very good for the back (better for my back than my super soft bed at home). The bathroom is compact, but the tub is actually quite large. The terrace is cute. The breakfast is Japanese style, they also have coffee and tea. The manga selection for non Japanese speakers isn’t great. The location is pretty convenient, there’s a family mart and a 7-11 just a few steps away. And a few central bus lines. Close to nijo castle and few minute bus ride from Gion. I would stay again. If the bed were soften and the room a little larger, I'd give it 5 stars.

There's a Lawsons and a 7/11 right near the hotel so getting snacks late at night is a breeze! They have self serve tea/coffee complimentary near reception so it makes it nice to have when you're reading their manga selection. They have only 2 washer/dryer combos starting at 100yen per 30 min cycles but when we went, 1 broke down and started leaking but they got it fixed right away. The beds are really hard and hurt my back as I laid on them but all in all it's a nice hotel. Kind of a walk from the closest JR station but it's a nice location.
