Nice, but needs WiFi
We stayed at the Hotel Avanshell for five nights. It was very difficult to be on vacation and not have access to WiFi. Since we were visiting over the New Year celebration, we wanted to look up the hours of business for some of the local sites, look up our flight information, etc. We were told to use the Starbucks in the mall, but that was a headache to set up. A nice Japanese woman helped us, but it still took an hour just to register. The hotel and staff are very nice...if there had been WiFi I would be rating this hotel much higher. Location is great, especially if you want to explore Gion

Nice hotel but location far from central kyoto
The only issue with this place is its location. Very far from central kyoto and requires more than an hour to get to kyoto station via public transport. Otherwise big room and space to put things. There are free shuttle bus services throughout the day but only every hour starting from 8am till 8:40pm. Can't go out earlier or come home later. So need to catch public transport.

Very good value for money
Nice big room. Hotel bus is a welcome bonus. Close to attractions using bicycle. Hotel staff very friendly and when you get the right person better than the tourist information. Wish we could have stayed longer but was booked out. Just be aware that if you get a non smoking room you may still have a little smell, but that seems to be at a lot of places in Japan and was actually better than in other hotels.

convenient place
My husband and I were in Kyoto for 6 days where he attended a conference. We stayed at Hotel Avanshell, which is a nice place. It is located conveniently in the quiet side of Kyoto City very much accessible by bus. There are a number of shops and malls near the hotel for any personal needs. I found the mattress saggy and the pillows too soft for comfort though. There is a TV but it only shows local channels in Japanese. Some of the room furnishings look old. I requested for a room with a view and the hotel did oblige. The front desk staff were nice and they tried their best to communicate in English

The best hotel in 50 years
There is absolutely nothing i can say that can be construed as even slightly negative (except for the fact that their rate doubles on Saturday night). Every member of the staff I interacted with went out of their way to assist me. I was provided with maps and information that the staff had researched online and then printed it for me.Bus and train routes, schedules, maps etc etc. The room was ore than adequate, there was an ice machine. I use the "coin op" laundry with washers and dryers. The hotel is inside a larger building with a large supermarket, food court with many restaurants, department store, a fantastic German restaurant and bakery (try their rye with walnuts and candied orange peel). I would go back there in an instant.

Economical base for exploring Kyoto
A comfortable and spacious hotel offering good value. The location is slightly away from the sights but getting about by taxi or bus is fine. There is a good selection of resteraunts and a well stocked supermarket in the basement. The staff were very helpful although the business centre was only helpful if you had your own laptop. Wireless was available in the lobby

Great for families staying a long time
Nice wide beds for sharing with children. Joined to a shopping center which is so handy having supermarket, shops, food court so close for a longer stay in Kyoto. Post office and bus a very short walk. Free shuttle to the hotel to/from Kyoto station was really helpful too.

amazing. best stay in Japan
I'm not sure which countries the other reviewers are from who thought the room was too small but this is huge for Japan, and I think small to mid size rooms in America. The shower size was US size (which is amazing in Japan). The best thing about this hotel is that it's attached to a department store and the sushi restaurant on the first floor was the best sushi ever (and I am Japanese!!) shuttle bus from kyoto station so no prob on the location.

Great for families
We were really impressed with the staff and overall value of Hotel Avanshell. The only negative was there is no wi-fi. However we found out towards the end of our stay that the nearby Starbucks has free wi-fi. The hotel accommodated two double beds for our family of four (two adults and two children) and the rates were great value as a result. Although the hotel is not located in the centre of Kyoto the hotel shuttle bus from Kyoto Station makes it a good location with a bus stop and major post office around the corner and train station 15 minutes walk along the river. Our hotel room had scenic views of the Kyoto mountains. The breakfast buffet was great value and a good start to our busy days touring beautiful Kyoto. Our kids loved the dinner buffet in an adjacent restaurant. The hotel staff gave us a discount card and our special dinner worked out very cheaply per person at 10% off. We soon worked out how to catch the local buses and trains to get where we needed to go. As well as being in a shopping mall, the hotel is 15 minutes walk from a 24-hour laundromat. For the daily room rate this hotel is very good value for families and the staff offer friendly helpful service. Don't forget to buy an all-day Kyoto City Bus pass from the hotel staff then catch Bus 206 around the corner from Hotel Avanshell to get to the city.
