My stay at the hotel was lovely. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, making me forget there were 4 beds in the room. Everything was nice, clean, and quiet. However, the morning door noise and uncomfortable pillow were slight drawbacks. The hotel's location right across from Kyoto Train Station was excellent, providing easy access to various attractions and excellent dining options.

The hotel is super conveniently located just across from Kyoto Station, making it a breeze to travel in and out. The rooms, while spacious by Japanese standards, are in need of some updating and feel a bit worn out. The service was incredibly helpful and friendly, going above and beyond to assist with luggage. The dining options were good but you might feel rushed during breakfast time. Overall, a decent stay for the value, especially with the fantastic location.

The hotel's location was ideal for our short stay, being very close to Kyoto Station and the bus terminal, making traveling convenient. The rooms were appropriate for business travel, but had some issues like difficulty opening luggage. The service was generally fantastic, although there were minor issues like noisy emergency door use. The dining experience offered traditional Japanese breakfast and buffet options, but with some limitations. Overall, the location and service stood out positively while room size and dining lacked a bit.

The hotel's location is unbeatable, just across from the Kyoto Train Station, making it easy to reach everywhere. The rooms were larger than typical in this area but unfortunately had a smoke smell despite being labeled non-smoking. The staff was extremely helpful, even going as far as assisting with storing luggage and cheesecake. The dining options were good, with a traditional Japanese breakfast available. The hotel facilities were satisfactory overall.

I couldn't have asked for a more convenient location opposite Kyoto Station with plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The rooms had everything I needed, but they were a bit small. The staff were helpful and polite, although some seemed disinterested. The dining experience was fantastic with a great selection of traditional Japanese dishes. Overall, a great value for the money.

The hotel has a very convenient location right in front of Kyoto station, making it easy for quick trips, international business, and exploring the city. The rooms, while decently sized, still had a lingering smoke smell and might feel tight with two full beds and limited space for suitcases. The service, although able to communicate in English reasonably well, lacked a service-oriented approach and at times came off as incompetent or rude. The dining options offered a vast selection of Japanese and Western choices but could feel rushed, especially if you prefer eating later. Overall, the hotel provides a valuable stay with a few drawbacks to consider.
