Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

Hotel Gracery Kyoto Sanjo

10/10 Excellent
"Kabuki room decor is awesome! Location is very convenient. The facial amenities already provided in room were very much appreciated. Although laundry machines are available, I would discourage use of dryer due to its limited (1/2 load) capacity. Overall, our stay was excellent!"

10/10 Excellent
"Clean, modern rooms that are well designed to maximize ease of use. Rooms now even have air purifiers. Shower/toilet/sink all separate so good if sharing room. Location is central to most popular tourist destinations and within walking distance to multiple public transportation options. The only fault is the laundry. They are there but are the combo washer / dryer machines that do neither well. Go to coin laundry instead."
