The best thing about this place it is just across the Kyoto train station. Location Location Location is essential especially in Japan. Alot of Japanese locals and businessmen stay in this hotel. When I checked in, it took a very long time. One of the staff had difficulty in checking us in, not too sure why but due to the... more

having read other reviews we were prepared when we checked in and asked to see a standard room in the main block and a upgrade room in the new wing. The standard room looked dated but clean so we weren't horrified it looked just ok. however, the upgrade room looked so much better that we didn't hesitate and paid for... more

My friends and I stayed here for 2 nights while in Kyoto for sightseeing. I loved that it was literally right across the street from the main Kyoto station which had its own mall and restaurants. Theres nothing like riding the bullet train for 2.5 hours and just having to walk through the station and across the street to your... more

I stayed in one of the superior rooms in the new wing and it was fantastic. I think the standard rooms are quite different as are the the satisfaction levels of the guests. The location of this hotel is excellent. It's just across the street from Kyoto station and is very convenient. The room was clean, fashionable, and well equipped... more

Before arrival - we were a bit concerened at the location across the street from Kyoto Rail Station but what a bonus ! Absolutely no noise from station and the station itself is a tourist attraction. You have to see to believe it. Also a main pick up point for Sunrise tours - so no "double shuffle" when you go... more

Location is close to the Shinkansen train station which is an advantage, also in the train station are a number of restaurants (fast food –by way of service). The room is of reasonable size, but what lets the hotel down is the bathroom, this seems to be a box bolted into each room ( we saw 2 like this). The... more
