Very nice hotel and comfortable stay. Good accommodating for luggages storage before/after checkin. Too bad the breakfast required reservation and there wasn't much restaurant to close by. Close-by To-ji, train museum and aquarium.

Great location and spacious rooms
We had a great stay at Hotel Banister Kyoto. The hotel is located in a quiet area within a 10-min walk from the main Kyoto station. There is plenty of convenience stores, restaurants and a large mall within walking distance. We also found the park 2mins walk great give our kids a run around at (the aquarium is next to the park too). The room itself was spacious with a good layout. It had lots of great amenities and comfy beds. There is a small cafe and restaurant on the lobby but we never used it as the cafe didn’t open until 11 (even for coffee). Overall we had a great stay and would highly recommend.

線路のそばで、夜間の音が気になる方には不向きです。 京都駅からは歩いて10分ほどなのでお得感はありますが、周りは何もないエリアなので、その点はマイナスです。 お風呂が広くとてもきれいで、またトイレとも別ですので、その点は高評価です。
