Agora Kyoto Karasuma Reviews

The hotel was super dirty and the sink stopper broken (please see photos). The front desk people were extremely unprofessional. There are many empty tables and chairs and I was sitting there and about to eat by they told me to go and when other people do this they don’t say anything. They together laughed at me when I defended myself. Please don’t book this hotel. Extremely dirty and the front desk are rude and disrespectful/laugh at you. There are better hotels in the same area and for better prices and services

Nice and clean stay. One of the front desk didn’t allow me to do check in when I’m just 30 minutes away to the check in time. I suggested to do the administrative check in and only get the room keys after 3pm but she didn’t allowed and wants us to just wait aside. Few minutes later, another front desk came and he immediately help with proceeding in checking in. Overall still a good stay. They have free snacks in the morning at the lobby to munch on.

Normal place, abit small but it’s Kyoto, and too many tourists 🤣🤣

Great location close to sijio subway station. Room is clean and quiet. Will stay here next time.

Great hotel, good location

Nice boutique hotel near Karasuma/Shijo Station,(5/10min walk). Neighbourhood is convenient yet relatively peaceful. Lots of cafes nearby too.

My family is actually excited and looking forward to stay in this hotel because of the tatami style room type, unfortunately the front desk and the attitude really bring the whole experience down. The night shift lady is not helpful enough to offer the room blanket for my kid( they only has the thick blanket, which isn’t reasonable for the humid hot weather at night), also the pillow given is so thin, even a kid also barely want to sleep on it. Also the towel often forgotten to give extra one set for my kid, even I’ve registered my kid and we paid my son accomodation as well. Feel being treated stingily on thing or service can offer. The second floor laundry machine also a nightmare, hotel only offer two washing machines and it isn’t powerful enough to dry the clothes, because don’t want to occupy the machine for too long, have to take the wet clothes back to the room. Very inconsiderate and unwilling to offer extra miles for service. Really unfortunate as we like the hotel location and room type so much. Another downside is the refrigerator in the room do not has freezer. The second floor microwave is very basic

Gorgeous hotel in a great location, very clean, spacious for Japan, and beautiful interior. Only downside is window was blurred and facing another building so very little natural light

Recommend! Stay for 3 nights. The hotel located in the center of Kyoto, 6 minutes walk from metro station, there are a lot of food stores, convenient store and supermarket around the hotel. I like the hotel decorations, it’s so Japanese style, simple and elegant. We’ll stay here again for the next trip 👍👍👍👍👍

It was cute and comfortable in my stay. The restaurant was closed on the day of my visit but it’s perfectly close to shopping centers and a good walk to the nearest temple

The hotel location is near to the central of Kyoto everything is close by and convenient. Lots of food choices and amenities. Served bread and drink at the lobby.

It's quite new and looks modern. Cleanliness needs to be improved. There is dust that can be seen easily under the table and chairs.

Cute and atmospheric! Get the larger triple room so that you have a traditional Japanese bath. The smaller rooms do not have them. There are no views out the windows, but there is free bread and tea for breakfast and the location is good.

Great location and clean. Though a little small but all amenities are sufficient.
