It was within walking distance to Kyoto Station (2-3 mins walk) and the Porta Dining area in the Station. There are a lot of malls close to the hotel if shopping is your thing. The room was too small for two people. Being able to get on and off the bed from only one side was not ideal for less agile individuals. Perhaps this size room could be offered only as a single. It was not as clean as other hotels I’ve stayed at. Staff were somewhat helpful and friendly. ##### Josephine Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### John 30 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Was a great stay perfect room for one person ##### John Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gabrielle 12 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities my room was a bit dusty, overall a great stay. right by the station close to nice restaurant and convenient stores. ##### Gabrielle Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hein 5 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I love this hotel!

I arrived late at night in Kyoto and knowing the hotel was 2 min away from the station was the best.
