Find 3-Star Hotels in Kyoto

Transportation: The hotel is super convenient, right outside Gojo Station Exit 1. It's just one stop from Kyoto Station, but beware ❗️ if you have heavy luggage, you absolutely must use Exit 6. None of the other exits have escalators or elevators ㅜㅜ which is really inconvenient. On my first day, it was raining heavily and I had a lot of luggage – it was a real struggle ❗️ You can walk to Kawaramachi in about 15 minutes and Yasaka Shrine in about 24 minutes, so the location is pretty good. Surroundings: Across the street there's a large 7-Eleven. Next to the hotel, there are Japanese 24-hour restaurants, McDonald's, and a big drug store where you can get tax-free shopping. Check-in: Check-in and check-out are self-service, but there are staff members available to guide you through the check-in process. The hotel lobby has a currency exchange machine; while the exchange rate isn't the absolute best, it's very convenient to have. Environment: The lobby has a very serene atmosphere with a distinct Kyoto feel, featuring traditional Kyoto decorations and adorable origami flower balls. There are complimentary tea bags and coffee sachets. The hotel provides pajamas, towels, slippers, and toothbrushes. You'll need to bring your own cotton swabs or some cosmetic products. You also need to use your key card to enter the restrooms and showers 👍. I recommend bringing your own shower slippers when showering. Hair dryers are available in all restrooms. The room was very comfortable and clean. I would definitely choose to stay here again.

Exiting Kyoto Station from the Hachijo-west exit, you can quickly cross through Kyoto Station via the second-floor North-South passage, connecting to the subway, buses, JR, and Shinkansen, and then reach the hotel. Check-in is done via self-service machines. The room size is quite good, clean, and tidy. In the lobby downstairs, you can find toothbrushes, combs, and tea bags. Facial cleanser, lotion, and face masks are available at the front desk. There's a large 7-Eleven downstairs, a daily must-visit, and you can use your hotel room card to re-enter the hotel through a side door. There are 12 washing machines on floors 2, 3, and 4 in total. You can see their usage status on the in-room TV, but they are quite popular. The washing machines now accept electronic payments, so you no longer need to exchange for 100-yen coins.

This is an excellent hotel, very close to Kyoto Station. You just exit the station and walk straight ahead to get there. The room even has a bathtub, so you can buy bath bombs nearby and enjoy a soak.

This hotel offers incredible value for money! It's super convenient, just a 5-minute walk from Kyoto JR Station. The streets on both sides of the hotel are lined with small restaurants and pubs, and there's a medium-sized drug store (Don Quijote) at the corner. The room was clean and tidy, and we could see Kyoto Tower right from our window. I especially recommend the hotel's shampoo – it's really good! 😊 The room was spacious enough for two adults and two 28-inch suitcases, with plenty of room to spare. There are USB charging ports by the bed. There's no kettle in the room, so you'll need to bring your own and an adapter. The breakfast on the first floor is a set meal, costing around 60 RMB per person. Highly recommended!

Great loation nearby traiand bus station which help me travel easily to all the favorite spots in Kyoto. Family mart nearby can purchase drinks and snacks. And the room service only provided on odd days calculate from you check in, but they do provide counter service which you can exchange towel or redeem your free drinking water daily. So no worries on the room service on days. Last, much appreciate they keep my lost t shirt.

+ this hotel 01 station only from Kyoto Station, using metro and stop at Koji Station , and then walking about 15minutes to the hotel + The easy way to reach this hotel is using bus, and stop at Kujo Omiya.

When we asking to the hotel staff about this, they said they not receiving any chat from the trip.com / ******* platform. I dont know where is the issue, maybe because this hotel very new or they are not ready yet for the online communication Please take a notes that you have to pay kyoto city tax. We stay for 02 night, and we pay JPY 1.600 total Overall it was a nice stay, and definitely really recomend this hotel for stay at Kyoto.

I stayed here in a double room and overall had a pretty good experience. The room was clean and comfortable, and both the air conditioning and heater worked very well. One thing that really stood out was the bathroom — the bathtub was much larger than what you usually get in Japan. I’m a tall person, and I could actually sit down and lie back comfortably, which is rare. Most hotel baths feel very small, but this one felt closer to around 1.4m in length, which made having a bath genuinely enjoyable. The bed was comfortable, and housekeeping did a great job — the bed was made every day with fresh sheets. Wi-Fi was also very fast, which was a big plus. Amenities were decent, and you can pick up extra items if you need them. Check-in is a bit late at 3pm, which I didn’t love, but that’s balanced out by an 11am checkout. Having that extra time in the morning made it feel worth it overall. I did have a couple of negatives. The strangest one was finding an old sock behind the TV when I arrived. It was very obvious and not hidden, so I’m not sure how it was missed during cleaning. It was a bit gross, but I just left it. Another downside was the mini fridge — it’s more like a cooler than a real fridge. It keeps drinks from getting warm, but they don’t get properly cold. In summer, this really wouldn’t be good enough. Replacing it with a proper mini fridge would be a big upgrade. The other major issue was the lift. It is painfully slow, and there’s only one lift for the upper floors. On checkout day, I left my room about 10 minutes before checkout time, and I almost didn’t make it downstairs in time because of how slow it was. That part was honestly pretty ridiculous. Location-wise, this hotel is excellent. It’s very easy to get to from Kyoto Station — just head south and you’re there in about 4–5 minutes. It’s also very convenient when leaving Kyoto by train. A tip for using the subway: instead of going back to Kyoto Station, walk right from the hotel to Shijō Station. It’s on the same subway line, you’ll get on before Kyoto Station, and the train is empty — so you’re almost guaranteed a seat and can ride comfortably to your destinations. For food and shopping, there’s a shopping mall just across the road toward the station with a Don Quijote, McDonald’s, and other options. The hotel is also right next to a Coco Ichibanya curry house, which is fantastic and open late. Overall, despite a few odd issues, this was a solid stay with a great location, good comfort, and very easy access to transport. I’d happily consider staying here again.

The hotel is quite a distance from the metro station, and there are no convenience stores or supermarkets nearby. It's a 15-minute walk to either the metro station or any shops, which is quite inconvenient. On the upside, the room was fairly spacious and clean. The bathroom even had a heating function, which was very convenient for washing and drying clothes.

This hostel it is clean, good location, even if you are 2 km from main popular street is easy to get around. The issues: you can’t really sleep here if u get snoring people as ur neighbors rooms. I ve booked 7 days but I had to cancel the lasts 2 because was really hard to sleep and I was having only ~4h sleeping. And at 7/8 am people are already moving and waking up and because of the isolation of the ceiling(pic) is very easy to hear absolutely anything, any little move. In the first night staying here, after a person snoring so much until 2 am , it woke up go toilet and after it put reels on big volume at more than 2 am, I had to go all the way to knock at his door bcz I imagine it was a guy. The single issue with the mixed floor is this, if you put a girl with only men and they snoring, that girl can’t have any good sleep, if u put only girls and some men but they snoring, all girls will get mad bcz I wasn’t the single one after the first day. In the last night the snoring man wasn’t in the room anymore and they were more girls I ve heard. So if this hostel wants to make a mixed floor then I think they can think of putting only young people with young people and older people with older. Or maybe only 1 floor women and another men and the rest floor mixed idk. They can think of something. Also , there is water dispenser only at 5 th floor! Why they don’t have one next to reception? All the people from down have to climb all the stairs for a glass of water everyday until 5th? And there is the sharing space only at 5th floor where is the water too but again, a person that needs to talk to phone and to not destroy other peace , has to go or outside the hostel or in toilets or at 5th floor… it is a bit of a struggle these things. And for the double rooms u can put a small electric kettle for morning coffee I think and a glass and a spoon. To not get all the way up to 5th floor, if it wasn’t complicated to get all the way up I would have gone to make coffee there too but I tried one morning when I was still not awake and it was a bit of a struggle. That’s all. Oh. And the beds are really comfortable and very soft, too bad I couldn’t enjoy a good sleep in them. And after I canceled the lasts 2 days I didn’t receive back the city tax:)) is not big money at all but details makes the difference.

This hotel offers excellent value for money. Both breakfast and dinner were included and quite good, with a decent variety of options. The hotel was quite busy, especially with local Japanese guests. The room was a bit small but had everything you needed. The location is decent, about a five-minute walk from both the subway and bus stations. Plus, there's a large public bathhouse downstairs, which is a great bonus given the slightly small in-room bathroom.
