4* would stay again
Would recommend. Only thing was that the breakfast variety was good but there wasn't a lot of variety compared to other hotels we've stayed in. But still a very good selection! Bedroom was lovely and staff super friendly.

Central location, modern facilities
Located in the middle of Shicho Gion, easily reached by bus from Kyoto station and within walkable distance to major Kyoto sites such as Yasaka Shrine and Sannezeka. Staff are all friendly and eager to help.

EXCELLENT location, price & value!
EXCELLENT location & price/value! Wonderful daily cleaning service unless you leave magnet for them to skip your room Staff very helpful - call taxi company to retrieve a wallet left in the cab. With their help, the wallet was returned within 1.5 hours! For the fussy, there were several stains on the floor. For me, only negative was poor light fixture placement, so difficult to read in bed.

Great location
The hotel room is as expected in Japan. Not large but it was comfortable and clean. The bedding was of good quality and the pillows were soft.
The staff at reception doesn’t speak great English and most of the time we had to use translator but they were nice enough.
Very central for markets and the Gion area. I would stay again

Kyoto Hotel Siggestion
Location was pretty convenient and surrounded by plenty of shops/restaurants. However, the downfall was the noise from the main road.
Size was not over generous but better than a Tokyo. My adult kids shared a twin for slightly more price but worth it for the space.
Staff was friendly and helpful. Good location as it was only 10 mins on the bus but they only allow roll on small suitcases. A taxi is around ¥2,500 for the short distance if you are interested.

Excellent hotel. Safe, clean and very helpful staff. Rooms were small, but well appointed and clean. Bed was comfortable. Breakfast was an extra charge, but the food was very good indeed and easy to get your money's worth at the buffet. The hotel is well situated for Nishiki market and lots of great dining options close by.

It’s no wonder this hotel has received many 5 star reviews from other guests. Its location is amazing! The accommodation and breakfast were superb. (The room isn’t the tiny standard you experience across Japan- it’s very spacious with a lot of well thought out extra amenties not seen in other hotels.) it was a bit tricky to get to this hotel from Kyoto station via train- so I took a taxi with my luggage instead which cost 1700Yen during rush hour. It was nice cause it gave me a gauge of where i was going to be staying. It’s walking distance to Gion and lots of beautiful cultural places to see.
To add, I felt very safe traveling and staying at this hotel as a solo female traveler.

We had a really great time the area was awesome and the hotel was nice. It was very comfortable and we definitely would stay again. Our only issue was with the laundry machine the dryer doesn’t work which was very frustrating. Other than that it was great hotel in an awesome area.
