Hotels With Bar in Kyoto Prefecture, Japan

The room was spotless, and the staff were incredibly warm and polite. The hotel's location is fantastic, directly across from Kyoto Station, making transportation super convenient. The bus stop for Kansai Airport isn't far from the hotel either. Plus, there's an Aeon mall right next door, so all your shopping and dining needs are covered. Check-in and check-out are self-service, which is very handy. The only downside was that the room felt incredibly stuffy and hot, even with the air conditioning off, and I woke up in the middle of the night because of the heat.

Reasonable priced hostel during new year eve next to kimono temple. Cleanliness in toilet, bathroom and basin area is acceptable but can be improved. My bed is upper bed and the space is way too narrow to get up there( see photo attached) I saw the lower bed were not fully occupied, it could have arranged another bed actually. The bed cubicle is open on top so you can see the next adjacent bed, there’s a pipe on top on the bed. 4 floors sharing shower rooms located at 2nd floor, kitchen and common area are quite cramped with baggage storage, used towels etc. Alright for a night stay.

This is also a Mitsui Garden Hotel, but unlike the typical 'Japanese' style I usually associate with them, it's much more modern. The public areas are excellent, and the steam room and sauna are definite highlights! They also maintain that modern aesthetic. All the showers are stand-up. The decor and material quality in the rooms and on the guest floors are a bit subpar and overly simplistic. Because the 'base color' is so dark, it tends to show dust bunnies more easily (not necessarily dirty, but it doesn't look good) 😂. The bed, however, is comfortable, and the curtains are great at blocking out light (though it's a shame the windows don't open, I just wanted some fresh air). The TV is high-definition, but its use is limited if you're out all day. The hotel is conveniently located near a bus stop, making it easy to get to attractions like Kiyomizu-dera and Eikan-do. It's actually not far from Shijo and Kyoto Station; on a nice day, you could easily walk, but if it's cold, judge your own stamina. The Gojo subway station entrance, right outside, isn't very friendly for those with large luggage as there's no elevator. Overall, the hotel service deserves a thumbs-up. The front desk staff, both male and female, speak good English and are very friendly and proactive in offering assistance. I noticed a larger number of Western guests during my stay. Just a heads-up: room trash is only collected every two days.

Location: The hotel is a convenient 5-minute walk from Shiyakusho-mae Station (Tozai Line), and also within a 5-minute walk from Sanjo Station (Tozai Line) and Keihan Sanjo Station. The surrounding area is a bustling commercial district, all easily accessible on foot, featuring popular spots like Uniqlo, Kiddy Land, BAL department store, and Sanjo Meitengai shopping street. Takashimaya department store and Nishiki Market are just a 15-minute walk away. The Kamo River is right around the corner; simply turn left when you exit the hotel. Dining: Plenty of dining options are available nearby. There's a supermarket just 20 meters to the left when you leave the hotel. Matsuya (a popular beef bowl restaurant) is about 200 meters further to the left, with Isomaru Suisan directly opposite it. Shinjindo Bakery and a tea room are conveniently located on the ground floor of the hotel building. Walk another 50 meters, and you'll discover even more choices. Facilities: While the room is compact, there's enough space to comfortably open up both a 26-inch and a 20-inch suitcase simultaneously. It comes equipped with a refrigerator, a complete set of toiletries, and slippers. There's also a hotel restaurant located on the basement level. This was my second stay, and I continue to be impressed by its excellent value for money and impeccable cleanliness. The location is absolutely fantastic, making it incredibly easy to get anywhere, and it's super convenient to pop back to the hotel during the day to drop off purchases or take a quick rest.

The hotel's location is great, and the rooms are clean and spacious. They offer free parking, and the breakfast selection is quite good and tasty. It's very convenient, as most attractions are within a few kilometers. There are also many yakitori and yakiniku restaurants nearby, and an Aeon supermarket is just a few hundred meters away. The hotel even provides a shuttle bus to JR Isetan department store. This hotel offers excellent value for money; the free parking alone saves you about 100 yuan a day. Highly recommended!

The hotel is full of design flair, truly befitting Kyoto. The garden views are absolutely stunning, and the rooms are very spacious. The onsen (hot spring bath) is spotlessly clean with a large pool. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied. It's surrounded by charming Kyoto shops, making it super convenient for shopping. I'll definitely choose this place again next time. The only downside is that the elevator has a rather pungent, almost urine-like smell, which is quite odd.

My stay was excellent. The room was clean and comfortable, but the hotel's greatest advantage is its prime location right next to the Central Station, making travel incredibly convenient. The breakfast offered a fantastic variety, and the staff was both friendly and highly professional. I would highly recommend this hotel.

The room isn't small, it's very clean, and the view is great too! The staff are all super enthusiastic, speak English, and there's even a front desk attendant who speaks Chinese. There's a hot spring bath on the 13th floor ♨️, soaking in it after a day of exploring is just the best! The hotel's location is also excellent, with bus routes 80 and 5 nearby, and Gojo subway station is also close, just one stop from Kyoto Station. The surrounding area is lovely, quiet yet centrally located. Highly recommend!!

The location of the hotel was good, near to the Jujo subway station, exit 3. The carpet was an eyesore, thought it was dirty but was told it was due to some cleaning products. The hotel has the potential to improve its overall service such as offering guests with early check-in hours (one or two hours prior to the standard time); offering some refreshments or water for guest while waiting for check-in; and ensuring that rooms are clean at all time.

The room was decent, and the location was good too, just a few hundred meters from the subway station, making it convenient to get anywhere. There's a convenience store and a drug store not far downstairs, and a nice cafe right below where I'd have my coffee and breakfast every day before starting my city walk (＾◡＾)っ☕️
