There was luggage hold for the day so that was nice -they did have cute yukatas - area was great as it’s central but definitely loud as it’s on a Main Street so you hear drunks and cars - needed ear buds to sleep. ##### Moses Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Melvyn 18 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Superb location. Clean room w view of street. Suffered w/ step up and step down bathroom with the typical no elbow room within that space. ##### Melvyn Stayed 5 nights in Nov 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Junko 5 Dec 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities As always this hotel hasn’t updated the room decor and furniture.

I specifically selected hotels which listed "Designated Smoking Rooms" among their amenities. I was very disappointed that this hotel did not actually have one, although it was listed in its Expedia page. When I asked, I was told the nearest one was in a cafe a little bit away. When I asked if the public was allowed to use it even if not patronising the shop, I was told yes. I found out that was not true. So if you want a hotel with an actual designated smoking room on site and not have to buy a drink each time you want to smoke, choose another hotel. ##### Mathusuthan Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Nora 23 Dec 2025 Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel’s air conditioning was turned off just bc of the month of the year. We almost suffocated in the rooms from the heat. No daily room service. You get a bag of thin small towel hanging on the doors each day hardly covers quarter of your body. Breakfast room smelled fishy and quality not good. Rude attendant at 9:25 am would not let us in even though we said we just wanted one cup of coffee. Overall not a place would recommend to anyone. ##### Nora Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simon 15 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great location and service. ##### Simon Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nora 11 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Stayed in July 2025, it was amazing! ##### Nora Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vidhya 22 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Did not try breakfast. ##### Vidhya Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lilian 8 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect location just at the entrance of Gion. Super convenient to walk to sight seeing or take public transportation to anywhere. The room is clean and adequate for two people, and the front desk staff are all friendly and helpful. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1a18554f-330b-42ff-b6f9-57cbc01d7eac-1754630974788.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2743239-3484-4baf-adaa-668d29b28263-1754630974716.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d1ed8bd8-0c24-43bc-bf96-aa70b8fb505e-1754630973788.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Lilian Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Good Nature Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Good-Nature-Hotel-Kyoto.h37234951.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Iconic Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Iconic-Kyoto.h67663093.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Place Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hyatt-Place-Kyoto.h74059283.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hotel Seiryu Kyoto Kiyomizu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Hotel-Seiryu-Kyoto-Kiyomizu.h44931128.Hotel-Information) > > [SOLARIA Nishitetsu Hotel Kyoto Premier](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-SOLARIA-Nishitetsu-Hotel-Kyoto-Premier.h17040479.Hotel-Information) > > [Hearton Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hearton-Hotel-Kyoto.h1452244.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westin Miyako Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Westin-Miyako-Kyoto.h878301.Hotel-Information) > > [Richmond Hotel Premier Kyoto Ekimae](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Richmond-Hotel-Premier-Kyoto-Ekimae.h37207574.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Emion Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Emion-Kyoto.h45911447.Hotel-Information) > > [Asai Kyoto Shijo Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Asai-Kyoto-Shijo-Hotel.h93073540.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Okura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Hotel-Okura.h6621.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Resol Kyoto Kawaramachi Sanjo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Resol-Kyoto-Kawaramachi-Sanjo.h21926337.Hotel-Information) > > [Noku Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Noku-Kyoto.h12714915.Hotel-Information) > > [RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-Royal-Hotel-Kyoto.h178521.Hotel-Information) > > [Cross Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-CROSS-HOTEL-KYOTO.h27026975.Hotel-Information) > > [TUNE STAY Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-TUNE-STAY-Kyoto-Hostel.h39861619.Hotel-Information) > > [Kyo-machiya Stay WAKA Fushimiinari-tei](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyo-Machiya-Stay-WAKA-Fushimiinari-Tei.h12622986.Hotel-Information) > > [Nazuna Kyoto Gosho](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Nazuna-Kyoto-Gosho.h27637350.Hotel-Information) > > [The Royal Park Hotel Kyoto Sanjo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-The-Royal-Park-Hotel-Kyoto-Sanjo.h4538458.Hotel-Information) > > [Kadensho, Arashiyama Onsen, Kyoto - Kyoritsu Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kadensho.h34491269.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Granvia Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Granvia-Kyoto.h444770.Hotel-Information) > > [Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Onyado-Nono-Kyotonanajyo-Natural-Hot-Springs.h44762017.Hotel-Information) > > [Ace Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Ace-Hotel-Kyoto.h45895767.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sanjo-Karasuma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Tokyu-Stay-Kyoto-Ryougaemachi-Dori-Sanjo-Karasuma.h18573474.Hotel-Information) > > [NISHIYAMA RYOKAN - Established in 1953](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-NISHIYAMA-RYOKAN.h3886831.Hotel-Information) > > [JR WEST GROUP VIA INN PRIME KYOTOEKI HACHIJOGUCHI](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Via-Inn-Kyoto-Station-Hachijoguchi.h33382855.Hotel-Information) > > [THE GATE HOTEL KYOTO TAKASEGAWA by HULIC](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-GATE-HOTEL-KYOTO-TAKASEGAWA-By-HULIC.h46993133.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Kyoto Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mercure-Kyoto-Station.h46949381.Hotel-Information) > > [Rihga Gran Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-GRAN-KYOTO.h38953457.Hotel-Information) ---
