It is a few minute walk from Kyoto station. You can easily find this billding. The staffs seemed well traind and to speak English well. There're some vending machines on the same floor and the cost is reasonable. Because of these reasons, this hotel seems high-class hotel, but around bathroom and sink was a little old and moldy although the... More

Very convenient location. Just turn right after the main exit of kyoto station, 5 min walk. Plenty restaurants and shopping underground. This is an old hotel, rooms are dated and not as clean as other japanese hotels I've stayed in, but clean enough. Beds are very comfortabe (Simmons, I think) Just make sure the AC in the room works specially... More

Very close to Kyoto Station - which has plenty of well priced meals. Free Wi-Fi in room, staff very helpful - Our room overlooked the Train lines - the noise was not a problem. Heavy curtains and double glazed windows.

The hotel is very close to the train station. The rooms were clean and had lovely amenities in the bathroom. The breakfast was good - had a japanese and western option. The only issue is being near the station meant you could hear train noise but it is convenient to stay here and see the sights. Service was very good... More

The location of this hotel is very good and convenience cox it's just next to the JR Kyoto Station. Also the sfaff were very nice and helpful. The design of the hotel is usual and a little bit old-school style. The room is clean, comfort and quiet. Improvement: 1) no Wi-Fi service in room 2) still using real room key... More

You can't beat the location or the quality of service. Tremendous staff and excellent breakfast (included in room rate). There is wi-fi but only in the lobby and it doesn't activate until 7 am for unknown reasons. Dozens of decent restaurants in the RR station malls, especially Porta. Best of all the windows open!

Very surprised with this hotel in Kyoto I had very dirty room, very old room, no wireless internet, and hotel staff was very short with me in helping out with my travel. I decided only stay one night and moved to another location. Also no iron available so got to wear a wrinkled shirt to important meeting next day, thanks... More

This hotel is conveniently located next to the Kyoto JR station so it was great to unload luggage after a train ride from Osaka. It's near shops and restaurants and we were there during the Gion festival so it was great location. I thought it was a bit pricey, but my friend actually booked the hotel and said that in... More

We stayed in this Hotel for 5 nights in July. The location is excellent, being only a 2-minute walk away from JR Kyoto station. That also means the hotel is near the entrance to the underground shopping mall which has a line of restaurants, the bus terminal and the bus ticketing office that is convenient for sightseeing, and the taxi...
