Kyoto Hotel Guide - 2 stars Hotels in Kyoto, Japan

Decided to travel alone and came across this affordable hotel online. It is not only affordable but the location is superb! It is near to many attractions and otherwise, transportation is just a minute walk away. The buses to various attractions are available nearby; you don't have to transfer from one place to another. There are also shopping malls around so you can't get bored here.

I had a great experience at this Comfort Inn and am baffled by all the reviewers complaining about the location. It is a safe fifteen-minute walk from Kyoto Station, a huge transportation hub, and a bus bound for the station stops across the street every ten minutes. There are also several temples, shrines, and museums in walking distance. The rooms are nothing extravagant but they're secure, clean, and comfortable. The staff checked me in speedily upon arrival and were helpful, warm, and spoke good conversational English. They also sell day passes for the bus, which was very convenient, and provide a fresh, tasty, and diverse breakfast buffet that offers both authentic Japanese fare and western staples. If I returned to Kyoto with twice the budget I had on this trip, I would probably still book the Comfort Inn Kyoto Gojo!

I loved my stay here! The staff couldn't have been nicer, the location was perfect, and the poise and balance of modest surroundings with inspired ideas was right where I feel at home

I stayed in the hotel for 4 days and must say it was a great stay. The room/bath was rather small but you will have that in any hotel. I am 6'0 and for me it worked fine (wasn't in the room for too long anyway). Room service/tools is upon request which I like (I don't need new towels every day). The only drawback is that there wasn't any closet or shelves to put stuff (only five hangers). The location is nice as well - close to kyoto station and even closer to the K-line. Overall I would totally go there again.

We stayed here for 4 nights and we were very happy. we had the small room with the japanese style bed in a small loft area. very cozy room. the staff is very nice and friendly. they also help with directions and getting around which is very useful. the japanese breakfast was very nice. the owner invited us for dinner with the family which was a lot of fun. we were initially going to skip fuku-ji but went there on the recommendation of the owner and were very happy we did!

It is a little bit hard to find by its address. But actually has easy access to several bus routes, about half block away.

I stayed here for a week to attend a conference at the university nearby. It's very close (a block) to a bus stop with excellent bus service, and only a 15 minute walk from the subway station. The building and neighborhood are very quiet. The room had everything I needed, and was very clean and new. Staff is helpful and keeps everything shipshape. I would recommend this to anyone who likes to a quiet and independent travel experience.

Nice place, but not for me. Great location, lady who's owns it is wonderful. I think it would be better for a group of travellers instead of a solo person.

Staff is super helpful and always around. We were able to do laundry, use the shoe dryers, borrow umbrellas, and keep our luggage there. It's also a great location, close to some fantastic food spots.
