of the 3 places i stayed in japan, this was the least memorable or remarkable, but that isn't necessary a bad thing! the location is JUST out of the metro exit, and an easy 3 minute stroll from the Shinkansen / JR stations. very easy to hop on a bus to virtually anywhere in Kyoto you'd want to tour. staff...

The main reason I booked this hotel is the location, it's very close to Kyoto JR station and main JR bus terminal. (JR bus for traveling in Kyoto itself and JR train for visiting nearby cities such as Nara or Osaka) Front desk was very polite (standard for hotel in Japan) I booked for small double room (means smaller than...

Arrived on a late train. Walked out of the main Karasuma Entrance across the forecourt bus terminal at there it was across the road. A Hotel in a hard to beat location if you are using trains and buses and lets face it as a tourist in Kyoto what else are you going to use! The Pro's - Location. Clean... More

Stayed here for 3 nights and is my 4th time to Kyoto. The reasons for choosing this are location and price (10,000 yen for a twin room without breakfast). Extremely cheap! 1. Location - directly opposite JR Kyoto station (go towards Karasuma exit) - is only 10-15mins walk from JR station platform and 3mins from bus interchange - Porta mall... More

Stayed 5 nights in this Hotel and I had heard that the rooms were small. I have to say that mine, Room 916, was quite large, 2 large beds, couch with table, closet, desk with TV, free WIFI, 1 window and 1 balcony, even though you could only open it a bit. The best of all was the location. You... More

Stayed for 2 nights. Great location, right infront of the station. Very friendly and helpful staff. Quick and free wifi. The hotel attempts to be ecological by giving guests an option for towel/bed sheets cleaning. The bed sheets made us itch the first night, so we asked for only the bed sheets to be changed. Cleaning staff were very nice... More

Stayed 3 nights. Great place to stay as Kyoto station practically looms over us. After overnight flight from Singapore, Narita express, and then the bullet train, it was just great to be able to check into the hotel quickly as we walked there from the station in matter of minutes. The bus terminal is just across the road, and when... More
