Nice modern hotel right beside Kyoto train station where most of the hotels seem to be located. Nice room if a bit small but that's to be expected in Japan. No Western style breakfast option which was disappointing but it's good value all the same.

Hotel is right by the station. But take heed that its not on the bus station side of Kyoto Station (its on the opposite side). Its like a 5 minute walk from the hotel to the bus stops in case youre wondering. Hotel room size and amenities provided is value for money considering this is Kyoto.

Stayed 3 nights. The hotel is across the street from the Shinkansen side of Kyoto Station. Access from the station was very easy. There's a convenience store, drug store, and several restaurants in this part of the station. The hotel was very clean and relatively new. There were a couple of computers in the lobby. The rooms were what I... More

We stayed 3 nights. The hotel staffs are very helpful for researching any requests and questions I had. Excellent location, just cross the street from the Kyoto station. Easy access to Nara, Osaka. Many shopping areas nearby. (Aeon mall, Kyoto station shopping area, Bic Camera, Yodobashi Camera, etc.) We enjoyed breakfast every morning (mainly Japanese foods). I highly recommend this... More

We were only able to get a small double but the room is spotlessly clean, quite comfortable and Kyoto station is just across the road. So for convenience this hotel is hard to beat. Transport, shopping, eating - everything you need is right here. The room IS small, but then again that's often the case in Japan.

Problems again with the sink. Too low. Knees hit when using a wheelchair. Toilet also, is rather low, hard to transfer back to the whelchair.... More

The hotel is in a very convenient location, just opposite JR station, and huge shopping mall. Very new, clean and modern. Great facilities and everything works perfectly. Comfy bed. Spotless room and bathroom. Impressive toilet amenities. The room is rather small but it's normal for Japan. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely book here again if we go back... More

Good location, just opposite of JR station. Small rooms and lack of English TV stations. Stuff didn't speak English well.

Useful location opposite railway station and with a buffet Japanese breakfast for those on the run.Tiny bedrooms and no public lounges or other public areas does not make this a tourist hotel.Staff at check in were helpful and breakfast adequate but travelling as a couple makes it hard to move around in the room,especially with any suitcases

We stayed at this hotel for 3 nights and thought it was great. The only downfall I had was that it didn't have a Western Style Buffet, but wasn't a big deal, since the JR Station has plenty of other restaurants to pick from. The room was a decent size, and so was the bathroom. The hotel is perfectly located... More
