A more upscale experience and incredibly convenient for travellers, located right inside Kyoto Station — perfect if you’re catching an early Shinkansen or arriving late. The room was spacious, spotless, and comfortable, with professional and attentive staff. The breakfast was excellent, and the cooks even made a custom soft-boiled egg on request, which was a nice touch. There are several dining options within the hotel, though they’re on the pricier side, and countless others just steps away in and around the station. A great mix of comfort, service, and unbeatable location.

Fantastic room and excellent concierge help. The buffet breakfast is a win, too. Super-convenient location with abundant food options at the nearby station. Even though the immediate neighborhood is a bit more business than residential, it’s a 15-minute walk to get to really interesting neighborhoods. Definitely recommend.

Great Location and Nice Rooms

The buffet had a large variety and leaned heavier on the Japanese food items. The staff was accommodating and the hotel had several entrances and exits depending on where you wanted to explore in Kyoto. The cons would be that it was always very crowded (lobby, breakfast are etc) and pricey for the worn and dated decor.

Great stay! Very modern, clean, plenty of in-room amenities, and really helpful staff. The location was also unbeatable, right inside Kyoto station. The executive lounge is one of the best we’ve stayed at, they offer cocktails (on top of self serve options) and all the food, coffee/matcha, other drinks, and desserts were very good. The breakfast buffet at Le Temps had great western and Japanese offering. The only con is they have really small pillows
