Clean rooms, kind staff, and really convenient after a long journey! We hopped off our plane, onto the Haruka Express train, and walked across the station and up the escalator to the hotel. Buffet restaurant on site had lots of great options.

Location of this property was absolutely amazing for everything. Being on site at Kyoto station was a game changer and there are 1 million stores and food and beverages for days.. The only thing that was annoying is that it didn’t have on-site laundry at all and to use the fitness facility or the Swimming swimming pool was an extra charge. We also have a 17 and 13-year-old who are not allowed to use the pool as they were under 18.

Highly recommend this hotel! Everyone was so accommodating. Our flight got cancelled so we arrived a day late, but we didn’t have any issues at all upon arrival. The staff spoke perfect English at the front desk, concierge, and bell desk. The hotel is conveniently located in Kyoto Station with a 7-11 just downstairs and several nearby restaurants in the Porta Dining basement. The room was spacious with a comfy bed and bathroom amenities (hairbrush, toothbrush, comb, shower cap, disposable stick razors, soap, bath salts, hair ties, q-tips, etc.) stocked up each day.

Stayed in the Twin Superior room in June 2026 with my 17-year old son for 3 nights. The room was thoughtfully appointed, gorgeously maintained and very spacious. The hotel is inside the Kyoto Station so coming in on Shinkansen from Tokyo and day trips to Nara and Arashiyama could not have been more convenient. While the Kyoto Station is bustling and crowded 24/7, when you walk into the hotel, it’s a peaceful oasis. The staff was very helpful and professional. Other areas of Kyoto are easily accessible via trains, taxis or walking. We used the laundry service which was very convenient, it was picked up at 9:30 am and delivered back to our room by 5:30 pm the same day. It was a little expensive though. Would definitely stay here again.

The hotel itself is very clean and what’s really great is that it’s right by Kyoto station in the city and that helped with commuting alot to where we traveled to. The staff however know very little English and not so helpful, they claimed their laundry service was cheap but our load of Laundry was 220$ USD, which is unheard of here in the states. You also have to pay to use the gym and the pool. And there is also a tourist tax that is charged per night. Other than the cleanliness of the hotel and us feeling safe I don’t think I would recommend the hotel. To pay so much already I felt like the extra charges were kind of not worth staying here. This was one of the most expensive hotels we stayed at due to us being in town for 4 days , we stayed in cheaper hotels half the price and those were way better than what we paid for this one.
