New Hotels in Kyoto

"1. Excellent Location, Convenient Transportation and Sightseeing: The hotel is located in the heart of Kyoto's Shijo shopping district, adjacent to the Kamo River and within walking distance of the Shijo Bridge. It's only a 3-minute walk from Sanjo-Keihan Station on the Keihan Railway, making travel extremely convenient. Quiet yet conveniently located, with plenty of convenience stores and supermarkets nearby. Nishiki Market, Gion, and Pontocho shopping districts are all within walking distance. The quiet environment at night makes independent travel and shopping worry-free. 2. Highly Practical Public Areas: The hotel features a public restaurant area on the first floor where guests can eat and relax. This is quite rare. 3. Friendly to Chinese Tourists, Excellent Value for Money: Chinese-speaking staff provide excellent communication. The location is highly competitive for its price range, offering excellent overall value. There were almost no other guests when I checked in; I wish the hotel great success. 4. Minor Drawbacks: The rooms are relatively small (a common feature of Japanese hotels); the bathroom facilities are basic, with a non-smart toilet, which is understandable given the price range. 5. There was a little surprise in my room: a painting on the wall by a Chinese artist. That was a big plus; I wonder how the owner found it. I might be one of the first guests. Wishing the hotel great success!"

"A wonderful new hotel! The best we've stayed in in Japan so far. The rooms are clean, beautifully designed, the air conditioning works perfectly, and the room is spacious at 23 square meters. This wasn't easy to find within our budget. The receptionists are very nice and helpful. 👌 The room has a great hair dryer, perfect for styling. There's also a fully equipped kitchen and a great coffee machine. The train station is a 20-minute walk away, and the city center is a bus ride away. But the hotel is in a cozy, quiet residential area. The supermarket is a 7-minute walk away. We're very happy! 😊"

"The room was spacious and clean, and the facilities were well-equipped. It's very close to Yasaka Shrine and Kamo River, and there's a bus stop nearby with connections to Kiyomizu-dera Temple. It was very pleasant to take a stroll in the evening. The nearest convenience store is near Chion-in Temple. I would choose to stay here again next time I visit Kyoto!"

"The cleaning staff was super kind and it’s very close to Kyoto Station. The best thing was being able to do our laundry for free in the same building :)"

"Had a wonderful stay at this brand-new hotel! The location is excellent, right next to Nishiki Market, making it very convenient to explore Kyoto. The room was surprisingly spacious, It was also very comfortable, well equipped, and thoughtfully designed. The staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive, and the service was excellent throughout our stay. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended! The staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive, and the service was excellent throughout our stay.

"The hotel’s location is really strategic! Walking distance to Don Quijote, Family Mart, and bus stops (also to and from Kyoto Station if you’d like to add some KM to your Japan trip, around 15-20 mins by foot). Amenities are decent, although soundproofing is not the best (we could hear bit of noises and foot steps from next rooms) - after a long day of walking we’re too tired to bother and had a pretty good rest! Recommended if you’re looking for budget friendly option and strategic location."

"Excellent! The environment is quiet and clean, very close to the subway, and several bus stops are also nearby, making transportation very convenient. Plus, the location is perfect – not too crowded. Highly recommended. The place is clean and hygienic, and a big bonus is no secondhand smoke! The facilities are comprehensive, with a washer, dryer, and microwave on the first floor. There's even a small fridge in the room. The service is great, communication is easy, and it offers good value for money. I'll definitely come again! ੭ ᐕ)੭*⁾⁾"

"Our family loved our stay here! Amazing location, helpful staff and charming space."

"This place seems to have opened in June 2026. It's a 15-minute walk to Kawaramachi, 10 minutes to the nearest subway station, and a 15-minute bus ride to Kyoto Station. The hotel is less than a 5-minute walk from a bus stop, and there's a Seven-Eleven nearby (3 minutes away). The location is convenient for getting anywhere, whether it's the airport or the city center. The only downside is that the buses to the city (Shijo, Gojo) often get stuck in traffic, so I ended up walking everywhere. Haha, sigh. (Though it's not the hotel's fault). Since it's new, the facilities are, of course, excellent. Most importantly, I loved not having to worry about bugs! The room size is typical for a Japanese hotel; it might be a bit tight for two people to open two 28-inch suitcases. Since I was alone, it was perfectly fine for me! It's about two blocks removed from the main downtown area, so it was incredibly quiet, except for one ambulance I heard passing by. Especially, there was no room noise. I have no idea who checked into the room next door; I didn't see any other guests during my entire trip (...). The room has pretty much everything you need. For a table, they said I could use the one in the hallway, so I brought it in, but it's a bit heavy. The chair was difficult to assemble, so make sure it's properly fixed before you sit on it. The amenities are truly amazing! They were the best I've ever used. The toothbrush and comb are fantastic; the toothbrush is so soft! Full cleaning is provided every other day (eco-cleaning). Since I was alone, I didn't find it inconvenient at all. Check-in is at 3 PM, but early check-in was possible if the room was ready. I was only planning to drop off my luggage, but they said the room was available at 12 PM, so I was pleasantly surprised and checked in. The front desk staff seemed to be better at English (but I'm not good at English, so I made requests in Japanese). The bakery near the hotel is delicious. They don't offer breakfast, but they provide cup noodles at night and some bread in the morning. However, I never tried the bread because I always went out for brunch in the morning. It would be great if they could fix the elevator always stopping at the lobby floor. It was awkward making eye contact with the reception staff every time."

"The location was fantastic. It's right on Gojo-zaka, and Kiyomizu-dera Temple was just a short walk away. It was incredibly convenient for morning and evening strolls around the area. There's a convenience store nearby, which was great for any small purchases we needed. The large refrigerator was also a plus, perfect for storing all the snacks we bought while exploring. The room itself was clean and tidy, making for a very comfortable stay. With a kitchen and washing machine, I think this place would be ideal for a multi-day visit as well. I'd love to stay here again. Thank you!"
