Clean hotel, near bus stop

Actually we had a hard time finding the hotel since they changed its name and did not inform us. So we just relied on the address that was printed on my confirmation voucher. We have been going round the neighborhood looking for the hotel, finally we found it thanks to some locals who helped us. When we got to the hotel there was a name outside the front wall but it was another name. But once we found it we did not have a hard time going back to it. It is very accessible to the bus stop and near Toji Temple. We also liked the room which was clean and complete. Everything looked new. The staff was also very helpful and apologetic when she found out that we were not informed of the name change. They were very strict with check out. We were late getting back for like 20 minutes and when we got there the cleaning lady and staff was in our room packing our bags. We did not complain anymore, we just got out bags then left. Over all our experience was a mix of good and bad. Hopefully this will not happen to their other guests.

家のようにくつろげるということと、キッチン用品があるとのことで興味が湧き宿泊しました。 いい所 ・部屋が綺麗 ・ベッドが柔らかい ・アイロンや掃除機がある ・洗濯機がある ・ユニットバスではない ・鍋やフライパンはもちろん、炊飯器もある 改善してほしいなと思った所 ・包丁の切れ味がよくない ・キッチンが狭いため、洗い物を乾かすところがない ・お皿を拭くためのふきんがない ・洗面台とトイレとお風呂が同じ空間にあり、トイレに仕切りがないため誰かがトイレ中の場合洗面台やお風呂が使えない 施設の周りは住宅地でご飯屋さんが少なかったので、近くのスーパーで材料を買って自炊する方がいいかもしれません。ただ、洗い物を拭くふきんがないため、キッチンペーパーなどを事前に購入しておくと便利です。 多少思うところはありましたが、お部屋がゆったりできる空間で同行者共々満足しました。 また機会があれば利用させていただきます。

テレビがないこと以外は満足

テレビがないのと、階段が狭かったこと以外は快適だった。安く宿泊できてよかったです。コンビニ、居酒屋、銭湯が近くにあって、便利。宿泊費を浮かせられた分食事で贅沢できました。

Kyoto loved it

When traveling around on light luggage the washing machine was a real bonus. Area is convenient for train station. Can feel a little far out from nightlife area. Host is very good at communication and early bag drop is catered for.

Tout petit chez soi

Hôtel situé pas très loin de la pagode de Kyoto, mais un peu loin de la gare principale, qui est une jr gare. Le quartier est du coup très calme, il y a des restaurants pas très loin et un petit supermarché. Les chambres sont de petit apparament avec petite cuisine et lave linge. C'est très plaisant, lorsque l'on est en cours de voyage. Attention certaines chambres sont en dessous des escaliers, ce qui malheureusement si les autres occupants sont des hippopotames, cela peut-être ennuyant.

Hotel algo apartado del centro en la parte sur de la estación de tren que es la mas aislada de todo. Sin restaurantes cerca. Por una o dos noche no será inconveniente pero para 7 dormir en un futon estrecho en el suelo y con cierta edad puede resultar incomodo. Solo hay recepción de 10 a 10. Amplio apartamento para el estándar japonés pero para dormir 3 personas muy justo.

It was close to Toji temple. 7-8 minds from the train stop. 1 train stop from Kyoto station. Calm area. Great service and easy going.

1 stop and 10 min walk from Kyoto Station. Very clean and modern. Typical small room, especially as they fit a futon in for the third person. Price was a little high. Convenience and grocery stores around the corner. Small kitchenette was convienent.

Nifty Spot

A good location that is right on the local bus routes and a fairly easy walk from Kyoto station (barring one large pedestrian overpass). Having Toji temple right outside the door and down the street was really cool. In-room laundry was a blessing and they provided a rack for drying, which was fun. The desk folk we encountered were all bilingual, which made chatting and getting settled easy. We checked our bags upon arrival (we arrived before check-in) and discovered upon returning that they’d just been left in the entryway largely unattended for 7 hours in full view of the street. Japan is very safe, but even so we were a little uneasy with that - we would have appreciated them being moved into the office. Bedding is traditional futons on tatami, so if you’re not used to that it can be a bit firm. I was fine. We had three futons in our room, so my partner doubled-up after the first night and was then fine also. Considering the hotel was built recently, the lack of a lift feels like an oversight. It’s only three stories, but if you have mobility issues it could be frustrating. The only other issue we had was that we found our room smelled a bit as if something had got wet and never quite dried properly. Everything seemed clean and fresh, but we noticed the smell every time we re-entered the room. It faded from notice after you’d been in a little bit, but it was noticeable for us. Other than that, a lovely spot. A good closet and kitchenet with pots and pans.

Good location and still

Really nice room like an appartement in Kyoto. We felt like locals for 3 nights The + : location + staff + design + washing machine I side the room + kitchen The- : a bit to much light in the morning no proper curtains and a bit noisy from the street

ホテルというよりマンションの一室

宿泊に関しては十分に快適に過ごせました。チェックイン時に多少のゴタゴタがありましたが許容範囲内です。 ホテルに泊まるというよりはレオパレスの一室に泊まる感じです。コンロや調理器具、洗濯機があるのが面白いです。 一泊や二泊ではなく、一週間等の中期滞在に向いています。

Beautiful, spacious room. Quiet location. Washing machine in the bathroom. Friendly staff. Short walk to the train and an even shorter walk to busses. A little out of the way from the main tourist spots, but I count that as a positive, and it doesn’t take long to get to those spots using transit. Only 3 storeys and no elevator.
