It was very clean and comfortable. Rooms were small but could easily fit 3 people with 2 suitcases and a carry on. Staff was very friendly! The location was great, we could walk to the bus stop within 2-3 minutes or walk to the station in less than 10 minutes. It’s also a short 10 minute walk to Nishiki Market.

Room was small (as expected) but very bright and warm and the space was used really well. Actually, it was the only Japan room we stayed in that had a closet! And the bed and the shower were both some of the biggest we experienced during our Japan visit! We also loved the lounge area and it was a great touch that they provided free drinks there.

Everything about this hotel was a dream. Luxurious, calming oasis of comfort and peace in the city. Perfectly located to get around with ease, and with staff that couln't have been more helpful and friendly. You arrive to a complimentary matcha and the entrance alone is like stepping into a soothing spa. The incense and the beautiful fountain and rock gardens under a latticed roof really transitions you out of the hot busy city into a cocoon. Our room was generously sized with attention to detail in every design choice. I could have stayed here forever and will definitely be back. Book it, you won't regret it.

Very private and tucked away in a nice part of town. It was warm, clean and friendly with great staff and amenities. The aesthetics were a luxurious traditional vibe. I had many requests during my time at Kaya including booking a doctors appointment and the staff were really accommodating despite how annoying even I thought I was getting. Absolutely loved the hotel's efforts to be environmentally friendly. Bicycle rental shop located a few mins walk away just one street back from the hotel.

    The location is great, basically across the road from the station, about 5 to 7 minute walk. From there you can get to anywhere in the city quite easily. The hotel is new and much thought has been given to the decor. It is stylish and interesting with a Japanese touch. The rooms have a warm feeling with warm coloured floral carpets and wood features in the furniture. The bed linen was great and the beds extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are modern and the water pressure excellent.

    The hotel is simply wonderful! Our room was simple yet well renovated, stylish, modern and new too. Totally worth the price and location is great too. The hotel is situated on a main road in Kyoto city centre, easy access to most of the places. There is a common spa, sauna and public bath area but we didn't get to use them. Would recommend to those who're traveling to Kyoto!
