Really nice hotel with friendly staff. Laundry on site was great and amemities nice. Great area, super quiet especially after staying in the busy part of Shinjuku right before heading to Kyoto. We had our bags transfered to the hotel no problem, and they helped us transfer to our next stay as well (via Yamoto Transport which was a great and inexpensive service). Overall great hotel!

The Hotel Legasta was perfect for our stay in Kyoto. The staff were extremely kind and helpful. Although the hotel has a nice contemporary design, the hotel has under 20 rooms and fits well into the traditional neighbourhood, which was a pleasure to walk around and explore. If you have time, we recommend the audio tour promoted by the hotel called The Unknown Stories of Kyoto’s Backstreets. The three rooms making up the bathroom are even more high tech than in other hotels we have stayed in in Japan, but the room guide has translations of the various control panels. We took advantage of the lounge area to eat a takeout meal and to play cards. We also appreciated the clothes washer and dryer, with automatic detergent dispenser so you don’t need to bring any with you.

I was suprised by how good this hotel room was, especially for the price. Got the ground floor room with a small zen garden. Room was larger than expected, with very spacious bathroom. In the lobby was a coin laundry and plenty of tourist information pamphlets for nearby sites, and Kyoto in general. Location is good; Higashiyama subway station, and several restaurants, and a shopping street within 5 minutes walking distance. Many attractions are within 20 minutes walk. Would have preferred a chair in the room - a stool is provided but there is plenty of space for something slightly more comfortable.

AMAZING! That is all I can say. The hotel is brand new. The room is great with amazing shower and bath. The toilet is in a separate room from the bathroom which helps with separating tasks. Very near to everything, station, geisha station, supermarket, etc. Absolutely recommended.

チェックイン前に荷物を預けようと思ったら、閉まっていて入れなかった。最寄駅近くの同ホテル(同系列の別ホテル)まで戻って預けることになり、重い荷物を持っての移動や時間ロスが生じた。 部屋もホテルというよりはマンションの一室のような作りで、部屋は冷え込んでいた。 スタッフの対応は良かった。
