Excellent hotel, great location

Excellent hotel, wonderful breakfast, VERY nice bathrooms, and the in room entertainment setup was impressive. I've stayed at over 30 hotels in Japan and this place is definitely in my top 3. Only complaint was that the check in process was difficult because we were had 3 rooms reserved and had to go through the whole process 3 times. Will definitely stay here the next time we're in Kyoto

Great location easy to access from the train. We ended up having two different rooms in this hotel and going from the room with the queen to the room with the king was a huge difference. The room was a lot bigger as there were three of us. The staff here were so sweet and helpful. The bed was comfortable. The breakfast was a really good buffet. I definitely would recommend this hotel especially if you’re used to a typical American hotel. Stay here:)

Location is good, right next to Kyoto station and the attached 7-Eleven is as always very useful. Check-in process was not good. We were instructed to use the check-in kiosk while there were people at the main desk not attending to anyone, which felt dismissive. The kiosk is a lot slower and more inconvenient overall than being attended to by staff. Otherwise the staff were polite and helpful. Free unlimited amenities in the lobby such as face towels, toothbrushes, coffee, tea etc. however no moisturiser, makeup remover, creamer/milk, or hot chocolate which I would have thought would be standard. Rooms were average. Larger than some that we've stayed in on this trip but the layout is not good, which makes it feel cramped. In particular having a very small gap between the TV console and the bed makes it difficult to navigate especially in the dark. There isn't much good storage for luggage except on the floor which makes it worse. TV is very useful as it also shows how busy the restaurant and laundries are. Bathroom is pretty standard. Included breakfast was good in terms of variety, though actual quality was standard. In particular having a good variety of fruit and vegetable dishes was good, since it can be difficult to get enough of either while travelling. Definitely the variety is the standout feature here. Though I note the hotel next door has a tray-clearing robot rather than relying on patrons to self-return trays (a policy that is only partially adhered-to).

Wonderful hotel across from Kyoto station. It was a bit busy in late January, probably for the lunar new year. When we stayed here in October, it wasn't as bad. Can't get over how amazing the breakfast is.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The hotel’s location is extremely convenient, just a 5-minute walk from Kyoto Station, making it an excellent choice for travelers who need easy access to public transport. One of the highlights is the 7-Eleven store located right downstairs, with a special entrance for hotel guests. This was incredibly convenient whenever I needed a quick snack or drink. The hotel is very clean, and while it offers self-service check-in and check-out, there are always staff available if assistance is needed. Another great feature is the free luggage storage, available for hotel guests only. This was particularly useful after I checked-out and wanted to explore the city without carrying my bags. The storage options include both lockable lockers and open space with built-in locks for larger luggage. The lobby is spacious, with plenty of sofas and seating areas, making it a comfortable place to relax while waiting. The standard rooms are on the smaller side, with no built-in cabinets, but there is a small space to hang clothes. However, I appreciated the small sofa seating area and table in the room, which made the space feel more functional. The hotel provides laundry facilities on the 2nd and 4th floors, with four machines available on each floor. A big plus is that detergent and softener are automatically included, so there’s no need to buy them separately. The laundry area also has an ice machine and a microwave for added convenience.

Our check-in process was smooth and hassle-free, which we really appreciated. The stay overall was pleasant, and the rooms were clean. However, we did find the beds a bit firmer than we’re used to, which made it harder to sleep comfortably. Aside from that, everything else was great.

Great location and hotel

Really nice hotel very near Kyoto station. You do have to pay a nightly city tax (200 yen) but it is all very legit and done by you on a terminal. Very nice breakfast but more Japanese than western. Kyoto station has more restaurants than you can possibly try.
