As the other reviewers all say the best thing about this hotel is the location. It is just minutes from the subway, trains and buses around the main railway station. You can walk out of your room and be on the subway in 5 minutes. The airport buses stop right outside as well. I eat one meal in the Japanese... More

This hotel is located very close to Kyoto train station and there is a bus terminal just in front of it. The location is indeed very good. But it is worth to note that there's no direct crossing from the station to the hotel. You must use a underpass which will be a burden if you are traveling with big... More

The hotyel is across from the major railway station in Kyoto. The hotel is clean and well run, and is a great place to stay

The hotel is just a couple of minutes walk from the JR Shinkansen station. Also, a subway leads almost to the entrance of the hotel, convenient to use when weather turns bad. We paid 15,000 yen for a two-night weekday stay for two. The tariff did not include breakfast but with many eateries, convenience stores and shops nearby, breakfast can... More

This was the second hotel I stayed at as part of a tour traveling across Japan, and perhaps the best out of the four total accomodations booked. As previous reviewers mentioned, it was conveniently located across from JR Kyoto Station (with it's shops and restaurants). The room I was assigned was clean, efficient, and quite roomy compared to the previous... More

If you want to stay Kyoto Central, right next door to the Kyoto train station with all it's great access and shopping then this is the place, good sized rooms, very clean and equally very well priced. Obviously used to be a classy joint, but has aged a bit, saying that it was still way cool Hotel, plenty of facilities... More

Location is very convenient for train access. A bit far from the city centre and the main tourist attractions. Shopping mall next doors is very handy. Rooms are very comfortable, spacious and clean. Very helpful staff.

The location is awesome to travel in trains - just across kyoto station bullet train terminal. Literally 2 minutes walk. We made 3 day trips with the shinkansen so it was really nice. Also from there you can take the JR line to Nara Osaka and Kobe, and the subway to downtown. The hotel is very basic, the rooms are... More
