I chose to stay at Best Western because it was only recently opened. Good: Linen was 5 star quality; pyjamas provided; adequate sized room; modern decor; air purifier/air spray available to clear the air (if you need it); location was so centrally located to the shopping center (Teramachi/Nishiki) to Takashimaya Department Store (less then 10 min walk/at Kawaramachi Station), Starbucks...

Loved this hotel, fab location and easy walk to great restaurants, shopping and attractions in downtown Kyoto. The room was a sufficient size and the reception staff were very helpful. We didn't get the room that included breakfast, so I have no comments in this. Totally recommend this hotel.

We have just returned from Kyoto were we stayed at the Best Western. It is down a little ally way and took us a while to find it. Its easier if you get of the bus or taxi at the LOFT store and walk down the ally. BW is a new hotel and very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was not... More

I stayed in this hotel for one night. Location wise this hotel is very close to sanjo station, its walkable distance from sanjo station. Breakfast is worst, as we are foreign tourists, with name western i thought there will be western breakfast. But to my surprise there is only cornflakes, bread is worst. I suggest look for another hotel which... More

The room was small but completely adequate, with a double bed, and it was very clean. I had asked for a non-smoking room, and I was pleased to find that there was not... More

Stayed here recently and was expecting it to be a bit rough – small rooms, not much service as I had seen in a few other hotels. The rooms are smallish, but they are well laid out and made the most of the space with only a few things I found annoying (and small things). Generally the space was designed... More

I read on tripadvisor about this hotel before my decision to book this place to stay. My sister and I stayed for 3 nights and I must say we had a great stay at this hotel. The receptionists spoke fluent English and were friendly. The room (twin room) was a surprise as it was very spacious. The only draw back... More

We were there in March for Kyoto Marathon 2013. The location is perfect for us. My friend is a runner, but I am a tourist. It's two stops by MRT from our hotel to Marathon start point.The hotel itself is located near in the biggest shopping center in Kyoto. Around this area, it is very easy to find sourvnior to... More

The Best Western Kyoto is a modern hotel constructed in the last few years in a very central location in Kyoto. More specifically the hotel is located in a small pedestrian street very close to the galleries of the Teramachi arcade and the wonderful Nishiki market (a covered arcade) and a stone's throw from the Kamo river and the streets...
