Really close to metro and rail station.

Nice hotel with friendly staff. It's exactly what you would expect from this type of hotel. It's very close to the metro and railway station and it's one stop down to Kyoto central station. There are plenty of good local amenities but being so close to the centre of Kyoto makes it almost the perfect place to stay. I would happily stay there again.

Great location, but don’t book smoking rooms

The location is perfect. Right next to 2 train stations. But the room I booked was the smoking room type, and the tobacco smell was really heavy.

Nice hotel with a fabulous buffet breakfast!!

This hotel was convenient to the subway and had a really good buffet breakfast, but the beds were hard as rocks. My husband loved the free onsen (spa), and the breakfast was good, so our only real complaint were the beds.

Directly opposite train station

It is directly opposite yamashina station, which is one stop away from main Kyoto station. Rooms are clean and spacious, staff are friendly, comfortable onsen. However, the power of the wifi router provided is rather weak.

Very nice hotel, great breakfast & free onsen bath

Had a very nice, one week long stay at this hotel. It was much better than expected. Clean, professional, well organized. The room, although looking out towards the busy railway station, was very calm, the windows having good soundproofing. With regard to other reviews: Wifi is now available in all rooms without surcharge. You'll get a little wifi router upon request at check-in, and just plug it in in your room. Works like a charm. Also, the breakfast was fantastic, with a huge selection of both japanese and international food stuff of good quality. Best of all: The hotel has its own little onsen in the 4th / 5th floor, consisting of a thermal bath and a sauna, and it is free to use for the hotel guests.

Comfortable hotel

The hotel is well located with access to the Yamashina underground station and shopping center through the elevator. This was really handy once we worked it out. The room was large by Japanese standards and the double bed was also slightly larger than we encountered elsewhere in Japan. The buffet breakfast was excellent. Free wifi was available in the lobby. On request, a booster was supplied that could be plugged in to give coverage in our room.

Very good value and comfortable business hotel

I stayed one night. I was expecting a very standard business hotel so I was pleasantly surprised. The double room I booked was spacious and even had a sofa in it. The bathroom was not huge of course, but plenty of space to stretch and towel off after enjoying the full-length bath. I did not try the baths on the 4th floor during my stay. Breakfast was fine. Not that great, but far better than most Japanese business hotels with toast, egg, sausages, cereal, yogurt, juices and coffee all decent. Overall, I was very happy EXCEPT that there is no wifi in the rooms. They only provide LAN cables for a PC and wifi is available in the lobby.

No Wifi in room

Location was great, one JR stop away from the central station. The staff was very accommodating, they allowed us to check-in early and let us leave our bags after we checked out. The room was a good size for Japanese standards. We didn't get to use the onsen because they don't allow anyone with tattoos; that was a bit disappointing but quite normal for Japan. The bathroom was a good size and had all the amenities that one needed including a razor and shower cap. Unfortunately we were given a smoking room which was stinky of cigarettes but in the end it didn't bother us too much. One last thing, there wasn't any WiFi in the rooms, only in the lobby, so if you stay here I suggest you have a pocket WiFi so this isn't an issue for you. Overall it was a good stay.

Wonderful stay

Friendly staff, clean and comfortable room and delicious and varied breakfast buffet - no complaints here! And yes, the hotel is not in central Kyoto, but it is next door to a JR train station and a subway station and only one stop from Kyoto station. It's a good base for sightseeing and there are plenty of good restaurants within a 5 minute walk plus a department store and a laundromat. Highly recommended.

Great location for accessing JR lines and subway.Hotel entrance is accessed from Yamishina train line. Department store directly over the road and a large supermarket in the basement area of supermarket. Coin laundry just down the road. Good selection at breakfast - cereals, yoghurt, pastries etc as well as Japanese selections. Extremely helpful hotel staff

Good for travelling around Kyoto/Osaka

The train station is right next to the hotel and all the trains in the area stop here and Kyoto. There is a good selection of places to eat near by. The hotel itself is fine, good enough for somewhere to come back to after sightseeing. Staff are friendly and speak English very well. Hotel restaurant is not the best but there is a great mister donut close that does pizza and pasta!

Great location

The hotel is located opposite the metro and Japanese Railway station which makes it easy to get around Kyoto, l took the JR train from Kyoto station to Yamashina, about 5 mins using my JR pass. The hotel is new, lovely quite large bedrooms with sitting area. The only point worth noting I booked the hotel because of the bath and sauna facilities which I couldn't use as l have a tattoo on my arm which l think is generally the case with hotels in Japan, not tattoos in bathing areas.
