Not able to adjust a/c so the room got pretty cold. Not the cleanest hotel I’ve been to but was fine. They helped us send our luggage to our next hotel which was super helpful! Super convenient location in Kyoto! Tiny bathroom/toilet. ##### Ylva Huru Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Emma 3 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities Staff were lovely and have no complaints. However, the overall hotel is extremely outdated, feels like nothing has been updated since the 80s. Everything is yellow from smoking over the years, beds and pillows are uncomfortable, duvets have a bad texture. ##### Emma Stayed 6 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cathy 12 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great Room-spacious and comfortable The room was spacious and central in location to all the sightseeing we wanted to do!

Close to shopping and restaurants. Rooms need a brighter look. All brown seems too dreary and old Bathroom the smallest I’ve encountered tested in Japan. . ##### LORETTA Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Artur 29 May 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities The location was perfect, right above the metro station entrance. many bars/ restaurants and convenient stores nearby. walking distance to Gion district. The beds were clean but the carpets especially in the corners were dusty. The price was definitely reasonable tho. ##### Artur Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Gary 15 Apr 2025 The property is in an excellent location. Coming from Osaka by train the station is literally up the stairs. Very clean and well run with front desk being very helpful with advice,directions and bus #. Highly recommend for those reason. Mattress especially hard and not for people with back issues…for me! ##### Gary Stayed 6 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jack 9 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities The location next to Nishiki and Teramchi is fantastic. Food shopping and transportation proximity is the best. There is a taxi stand access the street and it’s on top of a station. The room, bed, bathroom and ability to control temperature of the room were not great. I would say it’s a 2 ⭐️ hotel in that regard. ##### Jack Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Hue 26 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Location is really good, right next to shopping streets and shopping centers and bus stops. I got a corner room so can be a little noisy and space is at odd angles. And there's not enough lighting in the room. Otherwise, the bed is good, there's hairdryer and kettle and study desk. ##### Hue Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle 15 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We enjoyed a 3 night stay at Kyoto Central in the Japanese Western Suite B with 2 Queen and 2 twin futon. Ample space for 4 people. Front desk is on 2nd floor, staff were kind & efficient and our sent bags were waiting. Small elevator or stairs from street into the hotel. Our room was on 2nd which was convenient to walk past the ice machine and laundry room. The separate toilet room was quite small to close the door at your knees. Tub/shower combo was nice, towels little thin. Mini fridge in closet and table with floor cushion/seat back we moved to lay out futons. A little small when opening luggage for four people. Nice view of main street, lots of shopping/dining at Pontocho Alley, Nishiki Market & Kawaramachi right out the door. Taxi depot across street - short ride to Kiyomizu Temple. Transit from Gion-shijo station to Fushimi-inari Station was 220Yen. We would stay here again, the location is great! ##### Michelle Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sean 19 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities I don’t know why some people give such negative review on this hotel. It is what it is, a cheap hotel. Yes the hall stank of cigarettes but out room didn’t. Go 2 minutes out of the hotel and buy some incense if it botherss you. Yes it wasn’t the most slick room but it had comfortable bed, clean sheets and enough space, the shower was hot, the fridge was colder than our novatel. But the best thing was it suited my our needs in fact we extended our stay and the location couldn’t get better. For food, shopping and transport. Some people might whine about the road noise or the room temperature as it didn’t have A/C but for the price suck it up and out go pay double elsewhere. ##### Sean Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Yuval 30 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is old but well maintained, with a great location. It can be a bit noisy during the day, but it’s quiet at night, which makes it easier to rest. The biggest downside is the Wi-Fi, which is quite poor. ##### Yuval Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Brian 9 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything was amazing nothing fancy but convenient and close to everything.
