It was nice and close to the train station, which was how we were traveling around. Breakfast was good but you had to pick your time as it was very busy first thing. The room we had was comfortable and large enough.

Convenient for the station

The hotel was right next door to the main station so was perfectly situated in our opinion. The access was via an escalator and the reception was by the main restaurant and bars. The staff are very attentive and made checking in a simple and quick job. The room we had was lovely, quiet and not overlooked at all.

Great Location

Super convenient location to the Kyoto Station. Comfortable room with great shower and tub. The hotel caters to a lot of European groups, so there was always a long line for the buffet breakfast. We did not opt to include breakfast as there are almost endless options and choices at the nearby station and surrounding area.

We loved the convenience of this hotel being across the street from Kyoto Station. The staff were friendly and helpful. The bed was comfortable. We didn't enjoy how small and cramped the room was. The ceiling is low in several places which wasn't ideal for my fiancé. There is a large step up into the shower room and a step up into the toilet room. The lighting in the bathroom was not helpful for makeup.

The property is such a short walk from Kyoto Station that I have trouble justifying staying anywhere else. With the station's dining options via iSetan & Porta and convenient access to the JR central gate, staying here is truly convenient.

This is the place to stay in Kyoto !

A little bit of home in Kyoto. We have stayed at this property multiple times and every time was great. It’s also in a fantastic location. Easy access to everything. Shopping and restaurants are all close by.
