Location is good, close to Kyoto station but far from night life. The cleanness in the room is decent but the lobby has a bad smell, kind of like old smoke. Pillows are very uncomfortable. The public bath is nice and clean. There is no coffee in the room or in the lobby, you should go and buy coffee in the morning. They provide Japanese style PJ and free beer in the afternoon which is nice. ##### Maryam Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### MAKI 14 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities 清潔なお部屋でした。とても広くて、よかったです。 ##### MAKI Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### JOSE ANTONIO 9 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities El edificio parece antiguo, sin embargo la habitación excelente, mucho espacio, todo bien acondicionado, muy cerca de la estación de Kioto, fue una experiencia excelente dormir al estilo japonés en Tatami, todo muy bien.

The hotel is conveniently located close to Kyoto Station and the staff was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. The rooms are Japanese style with tatami and futons, which is exactly how I like it. The rooms were very clean and I did NOT detect any cigarette smoke smell (which can be a consideration in Japanese hotels). The public bath was spacious and hot, though our room also had a private bath tub/shower as well. As a tip, Kyoto Station is big, so in order to find the most convenient exit, head towards the "Porta" section of the station head out Exit A5 and turn left before crossing the street. The hotel is right there! Alternatively, if you want to hit up a combini, Exit A3 takes you out right next to FamilyMart and you just cross the street (with Kyoto tower on your left) afterward to get to the hotel. ![A 5-person room](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/DD8AC028242B530FFD67FA4D3771DA16831AB4CB1649788941129.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### David Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### yuanjin 2 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 舒適的旅館 地點便利、服務人員很有禮貌、浴場舒服、離各大百貨都不遠，附近吃飯逛街都很不錯，房間大，是市區少見的日式旅館 ##### yuanjin Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 24 Feb 2020 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 2泊しました 朝食ビュッフェは、和食が値段の割に美味しかったです。 お風呂は、シャワーホースにカビが生えたままだったり、清潔感はそこそこでした。スタッフさんは皆さんとても気持ちよく対応して下さいました。 タオル、とっても固かった‼️連泊の場合、頼まないと部屋に入ってこないので布団敷きっぱなしになります。構わない人は、荷物も放り出したまま観光に出られるので便利です。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 26 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 家族旅行オススメ 滞在中、臨機応変に対応してくださり、感謝。 スタッフさんとても優秀です。 滞在した和室も広かった。 朝食バイキングも 種類がたくさんありしかも美味しい。 大浴場は昭和の香りを残したデザインだけど 快適。ただし若干お湯熱め。 京都駅、京都タワーすぐ横の一等地。 老舗ホテルの底力を見ました。 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 9 Nov 2019 Liked: Room comfort #### そこそこ良かった 部屋は古い感じでしたが、広くて寝る部屋と食事の部屋が別にあったので、夜遅くまでみんなでお酒が飲めて良かった ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 16 Oct 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 古き良き日本の旅館 家族全員で布団を並べて寝られる広い和室が子供たちに新鮮だったようで大はしゃぎしていました。京都駅の地下ショッピングモールへの入り口も近く、とても便利でした。ただ、駐車場がなく近くのパーキングに留めましたが、京都はとにかく駐車場が高い！ ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Pahoua 16 Aug 2019 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Outdated, smelly, bad futons Was very disappointed that the mattress was uncomfortable to sleep on.
