Good hotel, not far from station or centre of town (about half an hour walk each). Coffee provided all day in the lobby. Gym available but costs 1000 yen per visit and requires reservation which is a bit annoying. Rooms are big compared to other hotels of similar price in Japan. Coin laundry is good (cash only). Onsen is nice - separate for men and women as is standard in Japan.
We stayed at Urban Hotel Kyoto Shijo Premium for 1 night. The location of the hotel was closed to Gion district and Nishiki market by bus. There is a bus stop outside the hotel where you can catch a bus to Kyoto station. The room was clean but very small in size as we expected. We stayed in a queen queen, and the bed was comfortable. The room was quiet, and the bathroom was clean . There is a public bath in the hotel, which is free to use, but we didn't manage to use it.

Great location, it is convenient to go everywhere in kyoto. I went to Enryaku-ji temple on the Mount Hie on this occasion. We can go by JR from kyoto station to the station Sakamoto, then change to take Salamoto Cable Car. This tour is much more convenient than by bus.
Hope to visit again next time during this summer, because the landscape is so greenery, good for the eyes to enjoy.
Thanks
We really enjoyed our stay in this hotel. The room was spacious and the beds are comfortable. We also prefer the shower in the bathroom over the bathtub. If there is a chance we would love to visit here again. The lounge area was also cosy and the overall atmosphere of the hotel was great, I looked forward to returning back to our room everytime after a day of exploring outside.
Also love the feature where we can also monitor the laundromat usage and plan when to head down to do our laundry. ;D

Very well located- street with small shops, big mall, restaurant s, close to metro station. Clean and comfortable room. All necessary bath utilities, teapot, coffee, tea, safe, small fridge in the room. Big and comfortable beds. Was a little bit noisy in the room which faces the main road.
Nice breakfast, not very variable,but enough to eat.
Very helpful and nice personnel. Kept our baggage after checkout till evening. We enjoyed and will stay again if in Kyoto.

Gorgeous hotel with a convenient location close to the core of Kyoto. It's quiet yet easily accessible to the noisier/crowded parts ie. Sanjo station or department stores. It's comfortable enough for a couple with a huge bathroom and a separate toilet area. A delicious welcome drink & snack was offered upon arrival and they have a free snack bar downstairs where the onsen & laundry area is. The onsen was very clean with amenities provided and enough lockers/ cosmetics station(hair dryer & lotions/gels). I saw a lot of tourists from different countries staying here and everyone seemed to enjoy their stay. Saw some comments about the fire station/ noise but it didn't really bother me or my husband much so I found it quite minor as everything else worked out well with my itinerary and trip plans. Greatly enjoyed our stay and hope to revisit again soon.

We enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The room and hallway were very clean. The price was very fair. What made us happy was the breakfast on the top floor. The floor rotated while eating. We had a great view of the whole of Kyoto. We will definitely come back and stay again. Thank you Rihga Royal Hotel Kyoto

If I had to point out a slightly unsatisfactory aspect, it would be the inefficiency of the front desk service. When I asked for a recommendation for the nearest laundry service, they didn’t provide any suggestions at all and were quite perfunctory.
Due to being in a hurry, I asked the front desk to call a taxi to the bus station for me. Instead of taking action, they kept saying that the roads were closed today and that taxis might be delayed, along with a lot of unhelpful comments. This wasted a few minutes. It would have been much better if they had simply gone downstairs to call a taxi and helped solve the problem.
Overall, I felt their service lacked enthusiasm, which was something I was very dissatisfied with. As for location wise, this hotel’s location is UNBEATABLE. I would stay again for the location and nothing else

Big thank you to Sayako - perfect check in customer service - friendly and warm.
Also thank you to the hotel and team for making it a memorable trip for myself and my parents. They remembered it was my mum’s birthday and prepared swan towels and during lunch prepared a happy birthday message on the dessert (do not have photo on this phone). Really appreciate the thoughtfulness.
And thank you for upgrading my room to better view.
Good:
- Service was exceptional for my stay.
- Location as others have mentioned is one of the best hotels in Kyoto - near the station you get off from Osaka - outside cherry blossom canal - near shopping - brought my suit for friends wedding day before just 5 mins away
- Room size is good and clean - chair was stained but they replaced it when I mentioned it.
- Espresso machine - under appreciated by other hotels but big hit with my dad - very nice touch
- TV had screen casting from phone
Nothing bad to really say just below points for travellers.
- Paid over 10k HKD for 3 nights - to be expected at cherry blossom peak season
- Have to ensure you are above 6F for a good view
- Foot steps above for my particular room (end room 3 beds) was noticeably bad - hotel really needs to fix this
- The shower bath door need to install feature to turn it opaque - 3 beds is usually family and showering is awkward with glass window
- No spa or pool. The amenities in the hotel are lacking.

The Hotel is located just a 5 mins walk from the main kyoto station and is nearer to the airport bus drop off point. The lobby is new, modern and spacious and love their business lounge for guests that offers a quick refresh for coffee or tea during the day. The breakfast was exceptional, japanese and western selection quality is good. Rooms are considerably comfortable in size, with a tub and also shower so you have both options. There is also an onsen (bath) on site which helped to soothe all the aching legs after a day walk. Will recommend to those to are looking for a comfortable stay and good on site amenities!

GGuest UserWe are a family of 3. The room was a lot bigger than we expected. The breakfast was above our expectation. It was a very good value deal. Wished we had booked for a longer stay. We would choose this hotel again should we get a chance to come back to Kyoto.

TTiejiaxiaomaoThe environment is very good. The hotel opened in 2024. There is a hot spring designed by Kengo Kuma. This is my second stay just for these reasons. The disadvantages are that there is a cemetery next to it, so please choose carefully if you are afraid of it. In addition, the flip-flops are a bit useless and can't be worn at all. If you walk to the hot spring area, it will hurt. I have never encountered the problem of flip-flops being difficult to wear in other Japanese hotels. I hope it can be improved.
SSvetlanaA huge and comfortable room. Everything is clean and fancy. But it seems like far from Japanese experience. Rooftop bar is awful: very slow service, the food is untasty and very expensive dor such bad experience. Also we left more tips as we supposed to do. I would say it was the worse place to have dinner in Kyoto.
We did not like breakfast with the eggs part. You have to order eggs and than you can additionally choose some food additionally as a buffet. Eggs were with a lot of sauce and mayonnaise. It was strange.
I would recommend to stay here without breakfast and do not try to spend time on the rooftop.
MMs TCSelected Room: Harmony Suite
A very clean and spacious room with a distinctive layout that boasts ample living space for a couple or family with small children. The big bathtub and plenty of natural light coming from the large windows were the major highlights of the room.
Location: Prime location. Situated right next to Kyoto Station, it is a 1-minute walk from the hotel to the station.
Staff: All staff members were very hospitable and gave you the best support they could when attending to requests.
Gajamer was amazing! He helped us check-in and was very professional and polite in any possible way.
Meals: We did not select any meal plans for this stay.
Overall experience: A very pleasant stay, with all expectations met as shown in the photos and descriptions. Strongly recommended.

GGuest UserWe had a lovely stay at Hotel Granvia Kyoto! It's clean, comfortable, and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff were genuinely friendly and went out of their way to be helpful, which made us feel right at home. Our room was surprisingly spacious—both the bedroom and the bathroom, which was such a pleasant surprise!
One of the best things about this hotel is its unbeatable location—right at Kyoto Station. It made traveling around, especially hopping on the Shinkansen or taking the Japan Rail to explore local spots, incredibly easy and convenient.
Kyoto Station isn't just a transport hub—it’s a vibrant place full of life! With so many shops and restaurants, we found ourselves happily wandering, eating, and browsing for hours. It was the perfect spot to relax and enjoy some leisure time between our adventures. There’s something for everyone, and the atmosphere is so lively—it really added to our Kyoto experience
The only downside was that our room was quite a distance from the elevator, which meant a lot of walking back and forth. It wasn’t a deal-breaker, but next time, we’ll definitely request a room closer to the elevator to save our legs.
Overall, we’d happily stay here again when we return to Kyoto!

PPHYO PHYO WAI YANG YINGThis is a fantastic stay with Dusit Thani in Kyoto. We hooked 1 night since it is our last night before we returned home.
Initially we booked premeir twins room for 3 persons however, the twin beds are not spacious to share .
I feedback to the hotel manager about the concern and he suggested to upgrade to their suite room which is double the size.
He gave me a good rate with extra bed in the livingroom at additional 49,000¥, thats fantastic offer !
It is spacious, have privacy for my teenage son and their beds are super comfortable and their bath tub are spacious for two persons .
A definitely good stay to end our Japan Trip. Will stay here again

DDorit BoxerThis new hotel is so beautiful. The room is big and lovely and beds were very comfortable. The service exceptional. We only stayed 2 nights but would have loved to stay more. The location is amazing . As two women , we walked around easily, even in late hours. There are lots of cafe's and delicious things to eat around us. walking distance to nearly everything like Nishiki Market (錦市場 Nishiki Ichiba). The breakfast is western, with a rich buffet and also a la carte options like toast with avocado and scrambelled eggs , and only one of the options- Asian. I would add healthier options like wholewheat bread, more fruit , cooked vegetables and steamed rice. All in all it was an amzing stay! Can't wait to return , will definitele stay again !!
