A lovely place to stay: a modern take of the traditional japanese house. Nice decoration, comfortable futon... Also the location is amazing, right around the corner from Yasaka pagoda and Ninenzaka street. Veru friendly host, he recommended nice routes and was very helpful and kid. Also, Himawari has the best bathroom and showers I have seen in Japan so far, better than most hotels. I would totally recommend it and it will be my first choice when I go back to Kioto.

This bis the best hostel I have ever been to. Nicely decorated rooms, clean bathrooms and the most important factor - the owners! They actually acted as a concierge and helped us to boom a table in a restaurant (and made several phone calls to do that), brought our baggage to Kyoto station and were super nice in general. They speak English, by the way. The best best during our stay in Japan (and we slept in ryokans and hotels too).

The hotel was very nicely decorated and built. It has everything you needed. The kitchen, bar, lounge room, even laundry room you can use for free. Public bathroom was very clean. Breakfast was really good for only 500 yen. You can use their bicycle for free even after you check out, the best way to explore Kyoto. Location is walking distance from subway station, Kyoto Imperial Palace and Gion area. Staffs were helpful too.

Everything!!! The hotel is really really recommended!!! Great location in middle of Gion district, few minutes walking to train station, buses and many restaurants. The room was big with all the facilities including big bottle of water each day, huge tub with jacuzzi and even kimonos :) The staff was really nice and helpful and the hotel overall cleaning was perfect!!! We really enjoy our time at Kyoto Sasarindou hotel!!

EVERYTHING! Friendly staff that spoke English. High quality throughout the hotel. Wonderful and large room (we had the Deluxe Hollywood Twin Room). The entire hotel is non-smoking. We actually cancelled accomodation at another hotel due to the smell of smoke at that one. This is the best hotel we have stayed at on our trip to Japan. And 5min walk to Kyoto Station. I highly recommend it. If in Kyoto stay here.

Location is the best - just 2 mins walk from Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae station you can't miss it (take exit number 1, they even have the sign with the Hotel name at the station!!). Only walking distance from Gion and Nishi-ki market area, makes it very easy to enjoy Kyoto, even at night. Staff are very friendly and greet you every morning in the lobby as you go out. Check in/out process was a breeze.

Great location, staff were plentiful and helpful, nice area to get ready in the morning, quiet, I liked the lounge (and they allow you to eat your own food & drink), great value. My first capsule hotel experience and it was the best. Absolutely loved the onsen downstairs. I miss japan!

Everything. From staff, to facilities, location and amenities. If you take a bus from Kyoto station it will stop in front of the hotel. There is also a 7eleven & coin laundry close by. Gion and distinguised temples are at a walkable distance, while shopping and dining are even closer.

Very good location. Just few meters away from the shopping district (Teramachi) and about 10-15 minute to Nishiki Market and Gion Sharikawa. Hotel is near Kawaramachi too which there is a lot of department stores. Also the hotel is nearby the Kyoto Shiyakusho Maeeki station (Tozai Line).

The location as the hotel is close to Kyoto Station so close to shinsanken and subway. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, they make you feel happy and do their best to enhance your stay and your Kyoto experience. The place was also very clean and silent.

Great location, close to Kyoto Station. Hotel staff are the best; friendly, helpful and very accommodating. Restaurant built in so handy for breakfast, a snack or some drinks at night. Great place to meet people from all over the world

Absolutely new hotel. Very clean. Spacious rooms. Has everything you need. The best variant for family with kids, as it have kitchen. Very friendly staff. 5 minutes walk from Nijo Castle . I highly recommend this hotel.

We absolutely loved our stay in this hotel. Short walk to the best train station I’ve ever been to, across the road from an amazing shrine. Quiet, clean, well appointed, well priced, lovely staff. It’s a winner.

Clean hotel, spacious and nicely decorated room (refurbished room). Good breakfast. Very conveniently located! The station area is the best place to stay in Kyoto if you want to do sightseeing.

The best Hotel in all our trip , excellent, elegant , clean, great food , amazing staff, beautiful hotel, we love the spa , everybody there are educated, and sweet .... 10 point 👏🏼🇯🇵👏🏼🇯🇵👏🏼🇯🇵

The property is in the city center where its only a walking distance to train station and a bus stop infront of the hotel. Their staff is amazing! Helpful! The best hotel i ever stayed.

Everything!!! Great hotel, friendly staff, best location, small but very good breakfast. I’ll definitely recommend this hotel!.

A small boutique hotel, in a tucked away street but close walk to shops Gion & station

The location was really really great! We could literally roll our suitcase into and out of the Shinkansen (bullet train) station. It was that close! Like a 5 min walk from the Hotel Entrance! And maybe a slightly longer walk to the metro/subway/bus station. Max 10 mins. They had 3 restaurants to choose from for breakfast buffet, including a continental set-menu. They had kimonos and samurai suits for guests to dress up in. They also had an automated currency converter to get Yen by exchanging Euro/USD/GBP and other major currencies. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
