Location is great, I love the canal view and walking the tiny streets while being close to the shopping streets and large department stores. Surrounded by restaurants and bars. No laundry machines on premises but just around the corner on the second floor of a net cafe is a laundromat (can get crowded, I think your best bet is going during the day instead of late night).

We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! Everything was exceptionally clean, stylish, and eco-friendly, with a thoughtful attention to detail throughout. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The buffet breakfast was a highlight—plenty of delicious Japanese and Western options to choose from, all fresh and beautifully presented. We also really appreciated the complimentary coffee in the lobby until midnight, a nice touch for evening relaxation. Another great feature was the variety of free amenities provided—razor, toothbrush, toothpaste, body sponge, hairbrush, even cotton swabs—everything you might need, without having to ask. The location couldn't be more convenient: just steps from shopping areas, great restaurants, scenic walks, and very close to bus, train, and metro stations, making it super easy to get around. Honestly, I wish there were more hotels like this outside of Japan. We’ll definitely be recommending it to friends and plan to stay with the Cross Hotel chain again on our next visit to Japan!

Bed is comfortable and clean. I like the bathroom/shower room and toilet room are separated. Free WiFi works great. Only thing is I wish we could have more tv channels that are in English. There was only one channel (new channel) and it repeats every 30 mins or so.

The hotel is in a great location, close to lots of shopping and dining options at all price points. We loved the gyoza restaurant across the street! The nearby river is a lovely spot to walk along or to take a break. The room was the largest we had of our two week trip and was very modern and clean. There were always many staff available and they were helpful and efficient. Overall this hotel appeared to be well managed and is an attractive hotel in a great location.

Amazing Hotel – Best Stay in Japan!

This was by far the best hotel we stayed at during our entire trip in Japan, and we stayed in quite a few throughout the country. The breakfast was incredible, easily the best of our trip. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere and a fantastic location, within walking distance to lots of shops and restaurants. The staff was outstanding, kind, helpful, and professional. Our room was spacious, spotless, and incredibly comfortable, with a large, spa-like bathroom that felt luxurious. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Japan. It truly exceeded our expectations in every way.

Perfect Hotel in a Great Location

I travelled with my family to Kyoto and we really enjoyed our stay at the Kyoto Cross Hotel. Staff was very friendly and the room was amazing. Plenty of room for my family of four in the the Family Suite. If we ever come to Kyoto again, we would definitely stay here.

The hotel was ok. However, the pillow was not clean. Actually, I was resting and leaning on the hotel when I first discovered a feet smell. Then, I noticed a strong odor from the pillow. I asked the hotel staff to change the pillow. Same problem. Finally, they gave me new pillows and that resolved the problem. This hotel was good in other areas and I really liked the breakfast buffet.
