Hotel Material

Great

The staff was friendly, and the room was quite nice.

Location was about 15-20 minute walk to da Jo station and 30-40 to Nishiki market. Area is quiet and lots of Konbinis nearby so that was great. Staff were very helpful and responsive when asking questions and with any needs. Only suggestion to the hotel is that the rooms have a mildew scent from I think too much humidity. Aside from that it was great

This hotel’s main feature is its decor. They provide no hospitality. I had to wait 15 mins at checkin before they acknowledged my presence. There was an involved customer ahead of me so I get waiting but there were two staffers there. Basically what you’re paying for is cool decor and location - that’s it. It’s not a bad hotel I just found the customer service lacking so I wouldn’t stay again.

Loved the modern aspect of everything. Would definitely stay again.

スリッパがあると良い

Postives: Our room was large, we had a refrigerator, it was very clean, huge shower room, Also, there is an excellent restaurant next door. Overall, we were very happy. One thing to know: The desk is manned very limited hours. The man who checked us in was wonderful and answered all our questions. We never saw anyone at the check in desk after that. So ask all your questions when you check in.

All the facilities in the accommodation were satisfactory, maybe because it was a solo trip. In particular, the location was very suitable for traveling. However, the large windows on the side of the road and the traffic in the room were uncomfortable, but it's not a big problem. This is an accommodation that I will consider as my top priority during my next trip to Kyoto.

料金を考えたら満足だし平安神宮にも近くて今回の旅の目的に合致してて助かりました。あとちょうど栗田神社で神事祭事もやっていて良かったです。 ただタオルに女性？の長い髪の毛がついててちょっと気持ち悪かったですね。

Great spot in Kyoto, on the metro but not too busy. A small boutique hotel, only 6 rooms, great for some quiet time after busy days. Didn’t eat in the restaurant, but it was often busy and smelt great.

Staff were unprofessional and the place was filthy.

Hotel material is located in such a great place. Easy walking to temples and shrines. Lovely views to the tree clad hills (very close) and easy access to buses and the subway. The front rooms (the smaller rooms) are nosy enough from the road. The best thing of all was Geronimo the manager who was so friendly and welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable, he really made the hotel feel like a home from home. Thanks for a wonderful visit in kyoto.

Large modern rooms, comfortable beds, excellent customer service and conveniently located. Loved the scent that was used throughout hotel as well!

probably the nicest hotel I stayed at in japan. The owner is there to check you in and he was so very helpful the entire trip. He spoke perfectly fluent English and was willing to help with any thing that you need. 10/10 for him alone. They also have a ramen shop at first floor which was honestly one of the best we had in japan.

We loved this property. It was a great blend of Japanese classic styling with modern touches. And it was in a nice quiet suburb. Absolutely recommend this place!

早めにチェックインさせて頂き、それ以外にも不自由なく快適でした。

Hotel Material was the perfect location to access all our Kyoto sightseeing. Many things on our must see list were in walking distance and transit (bus, rail, subway) were all a convenient walk away. The Hotel itself was adorable and staff friendly and helpful. A special thanks to Jeronimo who was the perfect host! I wish I could rate more than 5 stars!

Loved our stay at Hotel Material! We booked the Mini Room/ Double Room, which was a tad tight for my husband and I, but still plenty comfortable! (We only had carry on’s and backpacks, otherwise it would have been more difficult.) Room: 5/5. Loved the balcony. Street noise can be heard, but it’s not terrible. Super clean. Great amenities. Super comfortable bed! Slept great!! Bathroom: 5/5. Lovely toilet & toilet room. Great shower & shower room. Nice towels & amenities. Staff: 5/5. Great communication prior to checking in, and after checking out. The gentleman (Jeronimo) was super helpful and personable! Such a great guy. The other two individuals I encountered were also nice, but not as great of English (no big deal since I know I’m a foreigner in their country.) The location was great, but expect to walk a lot to get to the prime locations! They let us leave our luggage on our check-out day (check-out is at 10 am) to allow us to explore Kyoto more. So nice! (Also there is no breakfast or cafe in the building anymore, as a FYI.) Thank you again so much for a great stay!! Absolutely recommend to everyone for their Kyoto travels! Great value!

Small and perfect for us, a little boutique hotel. The manager is what makes this hotel so wonderful, following his direction we had wonderful meals and drinks. The only knock is it smelt a bit milduey and it's a bit out of the way, but for us it was the perfect location

オーナー様が笑顔で親切に対応してくださり、とても楽しい旅の思い出となりました。夕食もホテル内でとり、リーズナブルで美味しい料理に大満足です。
