Good match for:

  • Independent Explorers: Steps from Kyoto Station and subway lines, reach top sites easily on your own.
  • Budget-Conscious Solo Travelers: Affordable rates plus free Wi-Fi and complimentary drinks help stretch your budget.

Things to keep in mind:

  • Guests Needing Cribs or Extra Beds: Cribs and extra beds cannot be added to any room.
  • Leisure-Only Stays: No pool or on-site spa; best for active sightseeing rather than resort relaxation.

The Japanese staff’s English is honestly terrible. It’s not just a matter of accent — their pronunciation and overall communication are so poor that it’s nearly impossible to understand anything. It feels like they have no real intention of accommodating non-Japanese guests. For a country that relies so heavily on tourism, this kind of language barrier is embarrassing and unacceptable. If you can...

During my trip to Kansai, I had one of the best stays at this hotel. It is conveniently located just a five-minute walk from Kyoto Station.

Second, amenities such as cotton buds, facial cottons, etc were just opposite the elevator, so take as much as you need. I like this concept as it creates less wastage. Third, the rooms were on the smaller side (I took a regular single ro...
