Glass toilet / shower room door gives you no privacy. Nothing to do in the immediate vicinity ( except Nijo castle) but well placed in the centre of other beauty spots for easy travel to and from. Had to pay an additional 400yen tax on arrival - not sure why, I’ve been travelling around Japan and no other hotel required this, plus I paid taxes on booking also.

コスパに合いません

とても価格に見合う施設だと思いません。部屋も狭く、この部屋にツインはこの価格ではどうなんでしょうか。洗面所のガラスもあえて見られるようなガラスでなく、最初から曇りガラスなどで遮ったほうがいいのではないですか。

Had a great stay here for 3 nights with 2 adults, 2 kids. The room was comfortable, immaculate, well equipped. My only complaint about the room would be the fridge temperature - it turned everything to ice by the morning. Great for bottles of water to take out for the day, not so much for left over snacks. We did not use the spa area although the option was available. The breakfast choices were amazing, and they managed the volume of people well. An 8 minute walk from the station, bus stop practically just outside the front door - great travel links. Really great hotel, would firmly recommend!

Was a big room and the breakfast was really good, but the completely glass bathroom door was super weird. They gave us a “privacy screen” but it didn’t cover even half the glass. Also odd for a hotel with so many foreign guests to have so many English mistakes on signs and not allow tattoos in the big bath they advertise. felt rather old fashioned.

Great Onsen - poor food

The hotel is nice enough and the public onsen fantastic. The Rooms are not well sound proofed with lots of noise from other rooms and hallway coming into the room and passing trains Food in hotel is poor. First night for convenience we paid the ¥7000 for two buffet meals and all the hot food was cold or barely warm and very low quality/quantity available. It was the first time I felt I needed to complain to the staff about something in Japan. We had breakfast included in our stay and it was ok, there are not many options nearby but once again most food was cold or like warm - but coffee on tap and great breads and topping I probably would not stay here again

While it took a bit to figure out how to send my checkin luggages (one being a snowboard carrier) transported via Yamato Transport to KIX airport, the staff helped a lot filling out the forms for me and made sure the luggages would arrive the day I checkin for my flight. Public bath was a much needed amenity and same with washer/dryer. Needless to say, the room was comfy but maybe on the small side if there’s 2 or more travelers. Transport to various sights was most convenient by bus.

We loved our stay at Urban Hotel Kyoto Nijo Premium. It was fairly central to all the things we wanted to do, staff was friendly, and the rooms were nice. We opted for the buffet in the morning and it did not disappoint. The train station is a very short walk down the street and it passes right by a grocery store, so after we were out all day, we could grab something on the way back to the hotel. It's also very close to a combini.
