It’s not bad, so don’t take the 3* as bad necessarily. The room and property itself is fine, a bit outdated, but decently sized and perfectly functional. The staff were also kind and helpful. Mainly 3 stars because I think it’s overpriced for the location and the hotel age. It does have an onsen and free breakfast, so those are positives, but I noticed some of the residents can be noisy, and I think they host some sort of club or meeting for the Kyoto University students nearby, which can be a bit disruptive. It is also a 20 minute walk from the closest station, and also a 15 minute walk to the closest convenience store/drug stores. There’s a 24hr grocery across the street, but they’re pretty limited in their ready to eat meals, so you’ll probably have to walk a bit to get to anything. I know the hotel does offer a shuttle service to/from Kyoto station, but they only run certain hours and I did not use it, so I can’t comment on that service. Overall, it’s not bad, but for the price I think there are better options both in location, and modern convenience with hotel amenities

The breakfasts were wonderful in variety, always warm, and the variety of beverages was great. The staff was very friendly and really looked after us. Everything was always clean and the staff was very welcoming. Being located next to the Rabbit Shrine was an unexpected delight. I just wish we could have had a double bed.

It was great , but in the end I was about 10 minutes late to get out of the room. The Frond desk called me to enhance my leave in 10 minus, which I was thinking anyway. The tone of his talk was a bit forceful as if I was not leaving the rightful matter. Considering I paid in full when I got in the previous day, I thought they were rude, which I told them.

Hotel was quite nice. Easy enough to get to and free shuttle to Kyoto station was good. The problem is the hotel has very thin walls and you can hear talking from the rooms next door as well as noise from above and below. The laundry service is very expensive so they should have self use laundry facilities. There are a lot of tour bus tours coming through so constantly busy and loud. Lastly, Expedia says they show the final cost of the stay however when checking out you are charged an additional tax per day (400¥) of your stay, whilst it’s not an exorbitant amount it would be good to know up front or for Expedia to tell you about this. Despite the above we’d still stay here again.
