Everything is good. Unless the facilities are a little bit outdated, but clean. But that’s the problem of all hotels and resorts in Japan.

Junjie Japan

Street food style food court in the basement with access through to station was awesome. Discounted access to the tower and basement onsen both with direct access from the building was awesome. Location was awesome.

Gemma Japan

The location is perfect if you are using Kyoto Station as a base to go out exploring from. It is literally directly in front of the stations. This hotel also offers to hold your bags before check in and after check out.

Steven Japan

Providing all I required for my intended stay. Staff were very welcoming and helpful. It was literally across the road from all I needed access to including WIFI, Post Office, Tour meeting point, Kansai Airport, retail and dining. Will definitely stay again. Sally AU

Sally Australia

Location, location, location. Just that alone would have been enough for me to give this 5 stars. And on top of that, rooms are spacious, staff are very helpful and breakfast buffet is pretty well spread out.

Pradeep India

Kyoto Tower hotel location is very accessible for every tourist that you need to go. Very close to any transportation. Lots of food option.
