Conveniently located, comfortable, and has a really helpful and friendly staff. Would absolutely stay again. My only criticism is that it was difficult to communicate with them prior to our check in (we had some changed travel plans). They don't seem to check their email (or answer their phone?). Having said that, they were very kind about our early arrival when we did arrive and everything worked out. ##### Margaret Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Coralie 30 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Juste parfait !

꼭!! 먹어주세요!! 다음에 또올래요 ##### JAMIE Stayed 1 night in Mar 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### 美津雄 20 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### 美津雄 Stayed 1 night in Jun 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### akiyo 19 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### akiyo Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### kayoko 27 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort ##### kayoko Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 5 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### chikako 26 Oct 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### chikako Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Nazuna Kyoto Tsubaki St.](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Nazuna-Kyoto-Tsubaki-St.h46053153.Hotel-Information) > - [Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Shijo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Kyoto-Shijo.h3806437.Hotel-Information) > - [Yadoya Kikokuso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Yadoya-Kikokuso.h43888011.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Grand Bach Kyoto Select](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Hotel-Grand-Bach-Kyoto-Select.h8076320.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Musse Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi Meitetsu](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-HOTEL-MUSSE-Kyotoshijokawaramachi-Meitetsu.h52041999.Hotel-Information) > - [TUNE STAY Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-TUNE-STAY-Kyoto-Hostel.h39861619.Hotel-Information) > - [MONday Apart Premium KYOTO Station ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-MONdayApartPremium-KyotoShichijoHorikawa.h72965339.Hotel-Information) > - [Ryokufuso](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Ryokufuso.h11899943.Hotel-Information) > - [Dhawa Yura Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Yura-Hotel-MGallery.h34865507.Hotel-Information) > - [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sanjo-Karasuma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Tokyu-Stay-Kyoto-Ryougaemachi-Dori-Sanjo-Karasuma.h18573474.Hotel-Information) > - [Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Kawaramachi Jokyoji](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Kyoto-Kawaramachi-Jokyoji.h54176990.Hotel-Information) > - [RESI STAY HEART](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RESI-STAY-Cotorune-KYOTO.h34114019.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Glad One Kyoto Shichijo by M’s](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-HOTEL-GLAD-ONE-KYOTO-SHICHIJO.h19563862.Hotel-Information) > - [Kyoto Hot Spring Hatoya Zuihokaku Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Hot-Spring-Hatoya-Zuihokaku-Hotel.h7803718.Hotel-Information) > - [Kyoto Machiya Zeniyacho](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kiraku-Kyoto-Zeniyacho.h42077450.Hotel-Information) > - [Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sakaiza Shijo-Kawaramachi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-TOKYU-STAY-KYOTO-SHIN-KYOGOKU-DORI.h27557574.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) > - [KYOTO GRANBELL HOTEL hanareya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoutoguranberuhoteru-Hanareya.h72398371.Hotel-Information) > - [THE GENERAL KYOTO Shijyo Shinmachi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-GENERAL-KYOTO-ShijyoShinmachi.h89799984.Hotel-Information) > - [Marufukuro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Marufukuro.h73763736.Hotel-Information) > - [RIHGA Royal Hotel Kyoto](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-RIHGA-Royal-Hotel-Kyoto.h178521.Hotel-Information) > - [Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Kyoto-Station.h33777060.Hotel-Information) > - [Onyado Nono Kyotoshichijo Natural Hot Springs](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Onyado-Nono-Kyotonanajyo-Natural-Hot-Springs.h44762017.Hotel-Information) > - [The Machiya Kazahaya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-MACHIYA-KAZAHAYA.h34878806.Hotel-Information) > - [APA Hotel Kyoto Gojo Omiya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-APA-Hotel-Kyoto-Gojo-Omiya.h104888086.Hotel-Information) > - [Mitsui Garden Hotel Kyoto Sanjo PREMIER](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Mitsui-Garden-Hotel-Kyoto-Sanjo-PREMIER.h101206013.Hotel-Information) > - [THE HOTEL HIGASHIYAMA KYOTO TOKYU, A Pan Pacific Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-HOTEL-HIGASHIYAMA-By-KyotoTokyuHotel.h71549946.Hotel-Information) > - [Kyoto Traditional Machiya House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-Kyoto-Traditional-Machiya-House.h17940263.Hotel-Information) > - [The Pocket Hotel Kyoto-karasumagojo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kyoto-Hotels-THE-POCKET-HOTEL-KYOTO-KARASUMAGOJO.h51643765.Hotel-Information) ---
