Great place if frequently using Kyoto Station!
Very helpful staff during check in, check out and bag hold process. Rooms very clean. Would benefit from clearer instructions about daily need to select next day's cleaning option, though default Eco-clean is nice. Also good to know that full room clean required every 3 nights. Some noise from busy street outside. Blackout curtains effective. Proximity and cost/value to Kyoto Station are amazing!

Convenient and spacious
We had a superior twin room for 2 and it was more spacious than expected. The amenities included an updated modern hairdryer, curling iron and flat iron. Separate bathroom door from toilet and bedroom. Even the foyer had its own pocket door. Bath amenities bar has high end pola skincare. Friend enjoyed the hair oils and facial mask. Unfortunately the amenities bar ran out of the masks for me so I didn’t have a chance to try it.

The hotel is so conveniently located around 5 minutes walk to Kyoto station. The staff are friendly and accommodating, the services are very good and reasonable, the amenities bar have got a vast selections including bath salts, sheet mask and hair oils which I didn't find from other hotels. The nightly complimentary bar was a real bonus after a long day of exploration. This hotel is highly recommended.

Richmond hotel was close to Kyoto station, where we could pick up numerous trains and buses. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We didn’t try the breakfast but they offered a free tea time in the afternoon where we could choose from one of four free desserts as well as tea or coffee. They had six washer/dryer combo machines and you can check their availability on your TV screen. The hotel was clean and modern. The room was a little tight, as typical for Japan hotels but still had amenities. They helped us send our luggage ahead to the Haneda airport. Highly recommend!

Awesome stay
We love this hotel. We enjoyed the afternoon tea and the evening happy hours! We love the green tea parfait, the variety of drinks, and the amenities! Everything they provided were of good quality. The rooms are very clean. The beds and beddings are comfortable. Service would have received a five star, if it weren't for one little incident in departure. My sister asked a bottle of water a minute after she checked out. The staff declined her! I came after her, so I asked for her before I checked out. The staff asked how many bottle do I need! he appears to be happy to give me a few! I hope he can be more flexible and provided one to a guest who just checked out after five nights stay. My sister was upset about being declined a bottle of water.

This hotel really cares about creating a great experience for guests. The service is top notch, from reception to cleaning to the daily complementary tea service and happy hour they offer, not to mention the craft activity! I was blown away. Our room was beautiful as well - and the most spacious out of all the hotels we stayed at during our trip. The only issue was the room didn't seem very sound proof -- we could frequently hear noise from upstairs, like they were moving furniture or luggage around. And when people closed (slammed) their doors shut in the hall it was very noticeable. Location-wise, it's very conveniently close to Kyoto station, which was great for us as we did a couple of day trips to nearby towns (and the station also has nice shopping and food options). Would definitely stay here again on a future trip to Kyoto.
