Hotels near Kyoto Train Station, Kyoto

The hotel's location is excellent, right outside Kyoto Station. There are plenty of shops, restaurants, and entertainment options around Kyoto Station itself. It's also very convenient for getting to Shijo (just take a bus from Kyoto Station's central exit) and to places like Arashiyama and Kifune Shrine. The airport shuttle stop isn't far either. The hotel is a bit older, but it's very clean and quite spacious for a Japanese hotel. It's great value for money for families traveling together. Highly recommend!

I stayed in a room that included breakfast and dinner, and the food was delicious. Overall, the meals were really good... As a solo traveler with a packed schedule, it was a huge relief to come back every day and have a proper meal instead of just a boxed lunch. The hotel is about a ten-minute walk from Kyoto Station, which is convenient. There's a Lawson convenience store right downstairs, and a 7-Eleven just a few minutes' walk away. Across from the 7-Eleven, there are bus stops with direct routes to popular attractions, including buses to Arashiyama and the Shijo area.

Our experience of the hostel was average, where cleanliness and access of staff was lower than expected. When arriving, it took us 30 minutes to wait to check in, and only one member of staff available. During our stay we tried to ask for more towels, as you only get one upon arrival, and we had to go searching for a member of staff. The hostel has large rooms, that are the cleanest part of the hostel, however there are a lot of older guests who didn’t seem to understand the how to be courteous and decided to pack and unpack their suitcase at 11pm-1am. There is a light and small lockable compartment next to the bed, however because it’s made of wood, any small movement can be heard across the room. If you’re in beds 1-4 you won’t get much sleep due to the luggage rack and luggage rack light being opposite your bed, so bring an eye mask and earplugs. There are showers located on the basement floor but there are cups with flies , lots of hair and we found it unhygienic and off putting. To get into the hostel you have to scan a QR code on the welcome piece of paper to access the password for the doors for your shower room. On the bed you will be provided with a set of pyjamas (do not keep them) and at reception you can take some complementary ear buds, body scrubber and hair brush. There is no drinks or food available at the hotel, and there is a no food in the room policy. The hotel is situated opposite a large mall with several food options and a cinema, which we did attend on a rainy day and the film was in English with Japanese subtitles. The hotel is close to Kyoto station for easy transport to other stations in Kyoto. Overall we won’t be staying here again.

I was quite satisfied with my stay! It was clean, tiny, perfect for one person. I even had a good view and sunlight, which I think it’s kinda rare for the price I payed. Overall, very satisfied with the service 🙆♀️ Only one thing to mention is that, I could hear the person next room snoring at night 🤣 but I would always come home so tired, that I didn’t even care. But if you’re sensitive to this kind of stuff, maybe not the best choice for you.

The location is excellent, right opposite Kyoto Station, very close to the airport bus stop, and also near Aeon Mall. There's a 7-Eleven supermarket just down the street. Check-in is self-service on a machine, which can be switched to Chinese, and staff are on hand to assist. You pay for the accommodation on-site. The lobby offers self-service coffee, tea bags, toothbrushes, and more. There's also a microwave, with chopsticks, spoons, forks, etc., conveniently located next to it – very well-equipped. The family room size is good, and the facilities are complete. The only downside is that it gets very dry in the winter, and the humidifier isn't adjustable. Overall, it's still very good. Highly recommended!

This hotel offers great value for money and is often fully booked. The location is incredibly convenient, the management and service are excellent, and the rooms are clean and hygienic. They even offer free luggage storage. Besides the standard services, the front desk also provides high-quality facial care products for women, including face masks. I'll definitely stay here again next time.

I chose this hotel because it is not far from the railway station. And by this criteria I was disappointed. I had a backpack, and it took around 30 minutes to get to the hotel on foot (without backpack and on the second time, it was 10-15 minutes). The hotel is cheap, and I think you get what you paid for. The room has all the necessary things, and while there is a WiFi, the smartphone almost immediately disconnected from it, probably because there are many people who want to connect. So, to upload my photos and videos, I had to use the mobile internet. Also, I had to pay a tax though I didn't pay it in other hotels. Fortunately, there is a microwave oven, so I was able to heat up the food near the reception. Anyway, for a location where you sleep only 1 night, it is more or less ok.

I got a room upgrade and a drink voucher upon check-in. Even though the room was right next to the JR station, it was surprisingly quiet. It's also super close to the bus stop and Isetan. I was really happy with my stay and would definitely choose to stay here again next time.

The room itself wasn't huge, but it was well-equipped and pretty quiet. However, my window was on the side and covered with opaque paper. Looking at the floor plan, it seemed like two rooms might have windows facing each other, so they probably covered them to avoid any awkwardness. Plus, the window was really hard to open, so it basically felt like a windowless room. The location was great though, right opposite Kyoto Station.

The hygiene was acceptable. As for the surroundings, there's a road in front, a railway behind, a shrine to the left, and I didn't explore the right side... There's a hot spring bath on the basement floor, and hotel guests can use their room card for free entry. You basically scrub yourself down in front of a mirror! I wouldn't really recommend getting breakfast here, as Kyoto Station is just a short walk across an intersection. And don't let the small bed fool you, it's also very hard! Although the room isn't big, the pillow was especially uncomfortable! If the price were a bit lower, around 300 RMB, I might recommend it.
