This hotel is located just a few steps from the Nishiki market and is very walkable to nearby shops and the metro. The amenities were great for the price and the staff was incredibly helpful with any questions I had. They also will hold your luggage/bags before and after checkout if needed. I felt safe and comfortable here. If I were to travel solo and if i had a tight budget again, I would choose the Pocket Hotel in Kyoto. ##### Michelle Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 6 Dec 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice and convenient Great location for tourists, convenient and easy to find.
