We loved the room and the lobby and the area, but the absolute best thing about Tokyo Stay Kyoto was the staff. So helpful and willing to assist for common tasks like sending our luggage to our next destination to the more unusual request to help me find a place to buy a carp streamer. We loved our stay here also because of the location and how easy it was to pop back over to the hotel during the day for a quick break. Top notch all around!

We absolutely loved our stay at this hotel in Kyoto! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. We were able to check in early, which was a great bonus. The room was clean, modern, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay — from a bathrobe and slippers to a washer and dryer. We also really appreciated the free tea, water, coffee, and other essentials available in the lobby. It was very convenient to leave our bags after check-out so we could enjoy the city before our next trip. And the complimentary coupons for donuts and a drink were such a lovely touch. Highly recommended!

LOVED this hotel! I literally spent a day researching places to stay for our trip, and for Kyoto I settled on this one and glad I did. It was really nice from the rooms to the hotel staff to the complimentary sake in the evenings. It was also in a great location, right off of the shopping alley and close to everything. Walking distance without a doubt and the subway was right there. I would go back if I get the chance to get back to Japan.

Really wonderful; highly recommend!!!

We loved our stay at Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sakaiza. The location was really convenient for us and a perfect home base for our time in Kyoto. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We don't speak Japanese at all and they were very accommodating. Some spoke excellent English and others tried very hard to work with our language shortcomings -- even pulling out a tablet to translate! The rooms and amenities were wonderful and we especially enjoyed the free coffee and sake every day. The washer/dryer in room was a big plus as well. We had a terrific experience there and would highly recommend. (6 adults and 3 teens from the US; first time in Kyoto)

My wife and I stayed here for a week during cherry blossom season, and I don't think we could have picked a better property! For one, the major market was just outside the door to the hotel and many of the wonderful shrines we're just 10 minutes walk away. In some cases being near the main train station would be a priority but not in the case of Kyoto in my opinion. This is the better location for most siding in Kyoto and the station is an easy city bus ride away. The staff here were ALL exceedingly wonderful and I've of our favorite features is that each room has it's own private washing machine made it easy to keep our traveling clothes fresh and clean! That was a wonderful plus for our stay! Thank you to everyone at Toku Stay!
