My husband and I stayed at the Best Western Kyoto for 3 nights in May 2012 and were impressed with how nice this hotel was. The hotel staff were nice and spoke English very well. It was nice that we were able to leave our luggage with them while we browsed around the city since we arrived before check in... More

This hotel is modern and clean. The staff is friendly and helpful. We had a room on the 5th floor. No view, but just a lovely decor and modern comforts, free LAN internet. The room was quiet. I was only due to stay 3 nights, and I extended one more night for sightseeing. The hotel is close to a bus... More

I stayed there for 3 nights in mid May. Location - it is very convenient, surrounded by many shops and restaurants. Only arount 15 minutes walk from Gion. There is a nice market down the alley around 5 minutes walk away. There is a low price udon restaurant but of good quality nearby - you get out of the hotel,... More

まずは、GWなのに3泊朝食付きでビジネスホテルより少し高いくらいの値段で泊まる事ができ、大変満足でした。 I stayed in this hotel during Golden Week, which is one of the peak seasons, for 3 nights (incl. Breakfast) with reasonable rate. ロケーションは、四条河原町と京都市役所前の中間、京都市役所よりにあります。ロフトの角を入ればすぐに分かりますので、ロフトを目指して行かれると良いと思います。食事をするにも買い物をするにも、非常に便利なロケーションで、京都市役所前からは、徒歩で5分弱でした。 The location of the hotel is between Shijo Kawaramachi Station (Hankyu Line) and Kyoto Shiyakusho Mae Station (Subway), slightly closer to Kyoto Shiyakusho Mae than to Shijo Kawaramachi. You can easily find the hotel when... More

Hotel was new and clean. Was right in the middle of the main shopping area and a very short walk to the Geisha district and the sights. Very good value for money!

First off, this is a new hotel - it opened in 2011, so the photos you see on the official website are quite accurate. Often times the photos a hotel company presents and the reality don't end up matching, but in this case they really do. Stepping into the room you could immediately tell it was new - it was... More

If you want to do some sightseeing in Kyoto, it is better to get a place close to the station to take trains and buses (as common transports were a bit complicated to us), but if you want to be right in the middle of everything and want to do some shopping, this might be the perfect place.

I booked my trip to Japan very last minute. 3 weeks before my arrival to kyoto I booked this hotel at 250/night, much more than the average but it was because i happened to be going during peak season during cherry blossom season. The rooms are by clean, small, but big enough for 2. The bathroom provided all the amenities... More

This hotel is in a perfect location, next to a huge market and shopping centre, and not far from restaurants, bars, temples, Gion etc. The rooms were small but comfortable and modern. Free wifi in the lobby. My only complaint is the breakfast - it is terrible. Go to one of the coffee shops just up the road instead.

Simple hotel - very new and nice rooms, tiny size as expected in Japan - but the location was amazing and made our stay in Kyoto so special! 5 Mins walk to Gion (Geisha district), Nishiki Market and the beautiful alleys of Pontocho nightlife area. Will definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone traveling to Kyoto as a tourist.
