The Millennials Kyoto

Kyoto|0.14km from Suya
The concept of this hostel is great - something better and more inclusive than a capsule hotel with large, comfortable beds. Pros: The common area and kitchen were really nice, and the free beer hour provided a great way to connect with other travelers. The common area has huge windows looking onto downtown Kyoto. The staff were all super friendly and helpful and spoke English. You are given a keycard for access to the bed floors and after hours. You need to reserve breakfast the day before, but it's right next to St Marcs Cafe which I thought was a great option, so IMO you don't need to use the hostel's breakfast. The showers were good, and I never saw them full despite a lot of people staying here at this time. The laundry machine seemed easy to use as well. The location in downtown Kyoto is obviously great and close to bus stops to reach popular temples on the east side. Cons: The only problem I faced was that the iPod to control my bed and lights rarely worked! The first night, I was unable to recline the bed into sleeping mode or turn off the lights, so staff had to come reset something on top of the pod to get it to connect. It stopped working again after that, and I could not turn the lights on in the morning. I also did not get to use the special wake-up features. Because my stay was only a few days and I wasn't spending leisure time in the pod, I decided to just deal with the unlit pod. Also, I was the only person who I spoke with who had this issue. But the hotel should improve the engineering of the iPod controllers or provide backup physical controls on the side. This wasn't an issue for me, but my medium-sized suitcase would not fit in the pull-out luggage rack under the bed. I had to keep the suitcase closed and on its side between the luggage rack and the screen. I don't think that travelers with large suitcases would be able to fit them in the pod, you'd probably have to find an empty corner in the hallway. Overall, I would recommend staying here, just hope you aren't the unlucky one who gets assigned to a broken pod.

Travelodge Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi
4.5/5614 Reviews
Best location hotel so far. Located between two subway station. Center of kyoto shopping street. Nice and clean facilities. I like the view from our room this was surplus. Will definitely come back to stay here again.
UNIZO INN Kyoto Kawaramachi Shijo
4.4/577 Reviews
Located in Shijo Kawaramachi, an arcade, you can go without getting wet in the rain! The building is new and clean. Amenity goods are also available at a minimum, so it's good. The front desk is always called with a bell because there are no people. Are you adjusting the number of people due to the corona disaster?
Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo
4.5/5255 Reviews
Hotel asked to pay accommodation tax upon checking in and insist it is required for all Kyoto hotel showing us two brochures. This is not the first hotel I stayed in Kyoto during this period as i stayed 2 different hotels in Kyoto during this trip, but this is the only hotel that asked to pay for a fee. Though fee is not huge, advise travellers to check clearly before booking. Location is not bad and alot of shops around it but do note car cannot be stopped directly in front of hotel as car could not enter the street as its all shops around it.
THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO TAKASEGAWA by HULIC
4.7/5295 Reviews
The location is excellent and right in the downtown of Kyoto but not in the front street which will be too crowded and noisy, still there were some noisy from the restaurants and bar nearby which still played loud music even after 12:00AM, so not ideal for those people who needs total silence to sleep. This is probably the necessary evil when live in the downtown hotel, but the hotel is already in the back alley so felt a bit better. Cannot consider the service top quality since the hotel front desk is located at 8th floor, and there is only one person tending the luggage at ground level till 6PM, so no service can be offered at ground level, this is the part can improve since some of the high floor hotel do have ground floor service crew unless in a big commercial building complex. The room is nicely decorated and everything feels new, no complaint about the room. Although the breakfast is a bit disappointed given the very limited selection of foods and Japanese style breakfast can only offer limited number (25 serving per day?), this part can definitely make some improvement, at least inform the guest about the limited number so we can book in advance.
HOTEL ARU KYOTO Sanjo Kiyamachi Do-ri
4.8/5157 Reviews
I stayed at ARU for a week during my trip to Kyoto in late autumn and I was very satisfied! The price/performance ratio is too high. Convenient transportation: Sanjo Bridge and the city subway station are very close. The hotel is only a three- to five-minute walk from the alley to the main street and there are buses. It is super convenient to go anywhere from Arashiyama to Kyoto JR Station. Food and drink paradise: There are many delicious food in the areas of Kiyamachi Dori and Pontocho, and they are open even late at night. Sashimi grilled meat, sushi, fried steak, sukiyaki hotpot... You can choose from high or low, and there are many choices to enjoy every day. The hotel's breakfast is mainly Japanese style, but also simple Western style, salads and various snacks, rice, miso soup, bread and desserts. There were two mornings where there was soup tofu, the pride of Kyoto. The service is also very enthusiastic, and any questions will be answered carefully. Be careful to put a clean room sign when you go out, otherwise it will not be cleaned before the appointed day.
