    We loved everything

    We loved our stay at Node Hotel so much! It was exceptional! The location, the people at the front desk, the hotel, the rooms.. everything! The design was beautiful and I love that we could just walk everywhere from there. I wish we could have stayed longer. Hopefully we will get back there.

    We felt the check-in staff were not as friendly as other places we have stayed in, however, the process was quick.

    The room was amazing, very modern and upmarket. Spacious, with a welcoming, comfy bed and the shower area was a great way to unwind after a day of walking, shopping and exploring. The art works were a lovely, added reason to stay. Well curated and aesthetically pleasing

    The reception, bar & restaurant area is well designed and best cocktails in Japan we had! The room however could be better equipped with toiletries , spoons for the coffee and sugar too, I have asked the reception but was not provided the first time , then had to ask at the bar and they gave me some sugar and a spoon. Additionally , the room is quite dark so no natural light is coming in as the windows are covered. However, there is a well aired smoking room at the bar area which is good for smokers. Pillows are not very comfortable and they do not make the bed only cleaning the room and refilling of the toiletries. Overall good stay! We did not try the food however is italian menu and it looked pretty good. There is also 7/11 shop just across the street. The hotel does not have a laundry coin machine or laundry service either.

    The interior decorator was a bit fanciful, everything for looks instead of comfort and room/decor is an overall a bit gloomy. The bed base has sharp edges that overlap the mattress which can, and did cause injuries (especially at night when the room is dark). I loved the inclusive breakfasts BUT wasn’t my partner’s vibe / he would have preferred something with less salad/veg and altogether plainer .. or just an option which there wasn’t. No TV which didn’t bother us but surprising in a hotel.

    Boutique hotel style, modern and very clean. Nice size room . Convenient to indoor market and many restaurants in the area.

    The only drawback for us was the limited breakfast options. As we stayed for four nights, the selection felt a bit repetitive.

    We had a wonderful stay at Node Hotel in Kyoto. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the stylish and thoughtfully curated atmosphere. The premises feel more like a contemporary art space than a typical hotel, with carefully chosen flowers, striking photography and paintings, and beautiful accessories that add character to every corner. Our Junior Suite room on an upper floor was exceptionally spacious and well designed. We loved the separate wardrobe room and the convenient kitchenette, which made the space feel both luxurious and homey. The décor struck the perfect balance between modern elegance and cozy comfort. The location is excellent—central enough to explore Kyoto easily, yet tucked away enough to feel peaceful. Finally, the staff were outstanding: warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay memorable. Overall, Node Hotel exceeded our expectations in every way. Stylish, comfortable, and welcoming—highly recommended for anyone visiting Kyoto.

    The all grey decor was kind of sad in combination with my view of grey walls. The chairs were not nice to sit in - aesthetics privileged over comfort.

    By far the most spacious room on my Japan trip. Fairly good location, 10 mins walk to a couple transit lines. Buses nearby.

    The Staff is very polite, but English skills would be needed to be improved to welcome foreign tourists. Complimentary drinks in the room needs to be provided.

    No great if you want to un-pack no draws with limited hangers. The pillows were also really hard. There was also quite a big language barrier which made communication at the front desk quite hard.

    Great location, big rooms although it’s mainly style over substance especially if you’re staying for a week like we were.

    The only downside to the room was the non-existent storage space.

    Room was really stylish and comfortable. The chef made the breakfast vegan and very tasty according to our wishes. Also coffee in room was good. The location of the hotel was excellent and peaceful.

    Some of the staff struggled to speak English and did not get a colleague who could. This included asking for a vegetarian breakfast, it took a while for them to understand. The room was dark, but corridor was really dark the whole time. You do need to tell them the day before what time you want breakfast the next day, I wanted to have a lie in but was struggling with jet lag so it was hard to work out a time.

    Very clean, staff are friendly, great shower, ideal location for sightseeing. Bar/resturant is nice and quality of food was excellent.
