I almost never leave reviews, but The Celecton deserves one! The staff were very helpful and friendly, and the facilities were great. The hotel was very clean and the public bath was lovely. I highly recommend! The location is also great and very central. Directly in front of the hotel is a bus stop that will take you almost anywhere you need to go.

The Bright Light of my Miserable Vacation

A week before I left the States for my six-week Asian vacation, my knee gave out. It kept me in excruciating pain for my week in Bangkok and a week in Manila. Since I still could not walk when I got to Japan, I turned my three days in Kyoto into five days because The Celecton was such a great hotel at a decent price—located near a shopping street with nice restaurants, and a Lawson and a 7-11 nearby. A free dinner is provided each night, and there are public bathhouses for both men and women.

Great location! The staff were dismissive and rude. The receptionist only provided us with 1 key card which becomes an issue for the electricity. The complementary drinks were not available in the morning which does not make sense to me. The coffee machine was incredibly dirty!!! Our room has a moldy smell, there was a spot in the ceiling that was dirty and dusty. The room layout does not make sense it was too square so it was hard to store the luggage properly. The windows were in the bathroom. The young Japanese receptionist in the mornings was very nice and helpful to us. Everyone else that we interacted came off rude.

The Celecton: A Great Place to Stay in Kyoto

I added two days in Kyoto that were going to be spent looking at Mount Fuji. The rooms are small but well laid out to maximize the space. There is a modern feel to the room and common space. The communal baths (male and female) were nice as well as the coin laundry. The inexpensive breakfast and free dinner were simple, but filling. The staff was first rate, polite, and professional. The only negative point was there was not an English language television channel. A world wide news channel would have been great.

Check in was quick and efficient, thanks to the staff on duty. He spoke very good English and was very professional. We asked him if there were available rooms in case we wanted to stay a day or 2 extra and he advised us to check online because it might be cheaper. We did end up extending our stay, thru Expedia, so we went to the front desk the next day to see what needed to be done with the hotel for extending our stay. The staff, who was not Japanese, was not very helpful and he told us everything was ok. I asked him where the nearest train station was and he said he didn’t know. Good thing we checked about our extension the next day. The gentleman, who was there when we checked in, was working. He checked his system and no, it was not ok. He had to go into their system to make the update. We did not have to check out of our room, we were able to keep the same room and stay in it. This hotel is definitely a budget hotel! No frill. There is an onsen on property but we didn’t utilize it. There is also one washer and one dryer available. The hotel is within walking distance to restaurants and main attractions and about 1 minute walk to the bus stop and convenience stores. It is in a relatively safe neighborhood. Would I stay at this hotel again? Probably not but it is a decent hotel

Decent place to keep your things while you visit Kyoto. Close to Nijō Castle and other sites. Buses run conveniently and you’re close to Ōmiya subway station. Free curry and rice in the evening, can’t go wrong. Food shopping is also close if you’re keeping food in your room.

Stayed in this room for approximately 8 days. The place was quiet and clean. Amenities were provided. However in the 8 days I stayed my room was never cleaned. I dont know if this is Japanese custom but I found it odd. Good hotel!

We got there and the doors were locked. There was an employee outside smoking. Told us to come back at 3 pm. What kind of hotel is locked up with no access. We had 4 bags. All we wanted to do was leave it there and come back at 3 pm. We got our way eventually but this was important enough for me to share.
