Central but quiet

It looked like it was a ways from Kyoto train station, however it was a nice walking distance. It was central to wherever we wanted to visit. The main road was so close but the street where the hotel was, was nice and quiet. The staffs were polite and kind, super helpful when I had questions. Would recommend!

Small , convenient location

Very small room. Bed against wall so one person needs to jump out of bed through front or over partner. Not enough space to open two suitcases nor where to put away clothes. Good location near subway

Post NewYear Kyoto stay

A great base for a Kyoto stay, close to good bus and train links. Close to the main shopping and market district. We were able to get a local train to Osaka for the next part of our trip from a nearby train station. This made this part of the journey relatively painfree despite us actually taking our suitcases ourselves for this hotel change. Note: you're not allowed suitcases on the buses in Kyoto.

Convenient hotel close to Shijo metro station and walkable to the Nishiki Market. Liked the washing machine dryer facilities available, the public microwaves and the breakfast buffet selection. Our room was a bit dirtier than expected - needed more vacuuming under the beds. Overall good value for money for the facilities provided.

If you sleep without problems and sound doesn’t bother you then this is the place for you, extra treat if you get room 401 next to the vending machine and on the way to the smoking area where guests from other floors seem to forget that people are trying to sleep. On the other hand there is construction under the building, to the point that if you make the mistake of take a break from touring, you will regret it. That said, room 401 was designed probably by 5 different people and you bump with yourself trying to get to the bathroom. The manager was nice enough to change me to a different room, much better, unfortunately on the same side of the construction. Did the checkout a day earlier because I couldn’t stand another day in hell.
