    It’s a good place to stay. Within walking distance to Kyoto station to take buses or railway to go places you want to go. Hotel lobby is at level 8. For smoker need not worry head out to the emergency escape exit, there a smoking area there but don’t forget to take your room card with you. Or you will find yourself being locked in. Staffs are friendly too. Will book again for next trip.

    The lack of power sockets, only 1 at the bed. Very small TV screen.

    Room is clean and comfy. A slight discount is given to visit the tower. Excellent location if you want to be near transportation.

    The heater in the lobby was sweltering. The washroom had a funky smell, and the shower curtain was moldy. I will likely not stay at this hotel for long.

    Location is very central and convenient. Great location for transiting using Kyoto Station.

    We have to go to the reception level to get the coffee and tea. It will be good to let us sample snacks that we can buy from the souvenir shop downstairs. The hotel could tie up with the shop. Our cups in the room were not washed. We forgot to inform that the sink on the left side was choked. Our room is 730.

    Very convenient location. Near to public transport, cafes, restaurants, pharmacy, convenient stores and more. We had a room with tatami mats and it was spacious for four adults! We like the view of the cross roads, Kyoto station and a glimpse of the mountains. We especially love the toilet which was separated from the bath area. We love the automated toilet seat opening, heated seat, deodorizer. We also like the 'onsen' style bathroom.

    Nothing in particular. Strange had to go level 8 for reception and go to the rooms by comeing back down to 5 .

    The accommodation itself was clean and comfortable. The closeness to the Kyoto Station (bus and train).

    Windows just let cold air straight into room as they seal poorly. It could be noisy, a lot of street noise during the night. Air conditioner did not allow for temperature adjustment just volume of air.

    Great location handy to trains and buses, many options for meals nearby.

    Facilities were very aged. Room layout made moving around difficult. Despite the name, guest did not have unlimited access to kyoto tower. The first room we were given spelled strongly of sewerage.

    Directly opposite Kyoto station. Had a 1 time use reduced admission cost for kyoto tower. Upon check in, there was an issue with the room and the staff very quickly assigned us a new room seamlessly.

    I don’t know the hotel in Japan, why they have to collect the money for accommodation tax?

    It was very convenient and very close with Kyoto station.
