close to the train station, bus route, and many great dining options. Easy to get help with ANYTHING (I have had packages delivered, and forgotten items restored days later). I stay at the APA if I am in Kyoto.

The staff was super nice..great place for the price… showers have great pressure with hot hot water… and a good soaking tub (just what you need to help muscles recover after long day of walking) Breakfast was simple but enough to fuel up on for morning outings. Although room was cramped… all luggage stowed nicely under the bed. Very close to food court in the tower… an excellent place for a wide variety of lunches… would definitely stay hear again!!

The location is 5 mins walk from Kyoto Station, which means access to a lot of shopping and food. The hotel is clean and the rooms are compact. Just enough for 2 pax per room. Storage in the room is minimal and you might have difficulty if you are travelling with large suitcases. Fortunately, we booked 3 rooms for our family of 5. This hotel is great for couples or groups travelling in multiples of 2s due to the size of the rooms, and for those who will be spending most of the day out shopping and sightseeing.
