This hotel is very close to Kyoto station, the bus stop and other station. It was very easy to travel to other places. 7/11 and lawson is literally on the same street few steps away. The room was clean, neat and all the amenities were good and staff was wonderful and helpful. Will definitely stay again. Thank you.

Great location, very close to Kyoto Station and a subway stop even closer. Rooms were spacious, shower was great. Amenities included laundry, ice machine and microwave. Toiletries provided. Air con\heating in room. Kyoto station as an huge underground dining area so you’ll never be short of somewhere to eat. 7/11 next door too! Great location for exploring the city.

The room was clean and quiet. They have the most hard and uncomfortable pillows ever. Every day I turned my bed around and 3 times they turned it back so I had to turn it around again. Other than when we arrived no one ever said irrashaimase or made us feel welcome. The breakfast was good value.

Staff barely speak English. There was a conflict in what they can do with luggage transfer, with one saying they could do it snd another on a different day saying they couldn’t do it and advised us to take our luggage to a convenient store! Such a hassle! The restaurant breakfast menu is limited to two sets - western and Japanese. So, if you’re staying for more than two days, you will have to repeat one or the other.

I understand Japan is not Canada, but people should be treated with respect. As a Chinese traveller, I was treated badly by one of this hotel’s staff. There was a white lady right before me, and this staff gave a totally opposite attitude. Please avoid here if you are East Asian but non Japanese, even if you are English fluent.

京都駅から徒歩10分、九条駅からは5分ほど。どちらの道のりも平坦で、観光するのに最高の拠点となりました。また、ホテルの数軒隣りにはコンビニがあり、非常に便利でした。 客室や建物全体の清潔さは、日本人の私からすると「問題なし」「満足」といったところです。 今回は一人で利用、連泊だったので居室清掃は不要とチェックイン時に申し出たところ、新しいタオルをドア掛け対応して頂けました。またゴミ箱をドアに置いておくことで綺麗にして頂けました。滞在中、居室清掃不要、タオル交換のみお願いすると、ペットボトルの水を一本サービスしてくださり、嬉しかったです。また、一階ロビーにあるドリンクサーバー（コーヒー、紅茶、お茶、水）は滞在中いつでも利用でき、こちらも大変重宝しました。客室内のエアコン、バスルームは若干カビっぽい匂いがしますが、そんなに気になりませんでした（時折窓を開け換気はしましたが） 全体として非常に満足のいく滞在となりました。また京都を訪れる際は利用させて頂きたく思います。

1.對獨旅的女性而言，感到很安全，住的是本館。個人認為這本館比較安心，除了大廳都有工作人員之外，因為電梯內有監視器，在一樓也可以透過畫面確認電梯內的人員安全。 2.有化妝水、卸妝水、乳液、梳子、棉花棒等等的用品，在一樓電梯門口供旅客自行取用，對於旅行背包客而言，是個非常貼心的服務。另外，入住報到和退房，其實大部分也算是自助，就是櫃檯前面有機台，如果真的沒辦法用日文溝通，我相信專業的櫃檯人員也是都會很親切的協助！ 3.雖然本館二樓有自動販賣機，不過只有飲品，零食餅乾類型的沒有。若真的需要一些吃食，可以到樓下走路大約一兩分鐘就到的7-11採買，那一家7-11的店員也對外國旅客的應對稀鬆平常，若是不太會說日語，也可以不用太過於緊張，最後再跟店員說ありがとうございます表達感謝就好。 4.如果不曉得一早起床要吃什麼，相信我樓下的蔥太郎是你的好選擇。有兩種套餐可以選，和式和洋式，當時的價錢都是1500日幣（2026/9/18-23），我當時沒有跟著預約飯店時加購，怕自己根本起不來😂。和式是常見但非常美味的鯖魚定食，而且竟然還附有小甜點；洋式就相對比較簡單但也常見，炒蛋、脆腸、薯餅、小麵包、小鬆餅。飲品的部分是採取自助吧，有咖啡、牛奶、果汁、水等等。不過要吃早餐的話要注意最後點餐時間，即使早餐時間是到10點，最後點餐時間一到，餐廳不會接待歐，因為他們要準備接下來的中餐時段，最後點餐時間可以參考房間內電視的說明！最後很感謝這幾天蔥太郎的大家們親切的服務，ご馳走様でした😋 5.公車站是大部分知名景點的起始站，超級方便，京都車站也只要走大約十到十五分鐘（一個人腳程）一直線的路線就可以到。離最近的地鐵站就是九條，也很方便。 6.深夜很安靜，除了依然可以聽到暴走族的機車聲之外，也比較其他熱鬧區域沒什麼人，算是一個如果還在外要隨時注意安全。不過飯店外面有一個小小間的警察局和7-11，所以多少還是可以安心一點。
