I love this hotel. It is very safe, there are a big grocery store within a few feet, easy access to the bus station, walkable distance to Shijo subway station, Nijo Castle, and Don Quijote(this one is about 20 min walk, doable.) The room is clean, the price is reasonable and staff is super helpful and friendly. I totally recommand this hotel.

Kyoto Agora
The best hotel from our Japan trip! Made us really fall in love with Kyoto. For a modern hotel it really emanates a traditional spirit. We had an entry way, with seperate rooms for toilet, shower and bedroom with a sliding door. The furnishings were great, and it was incredible comfortable. We almost didn’t want to leave!

Verified traveller

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Not the cleanest and service is subpar
They put me in a smoking room even though I booked a non-smoking one. The toilet wasn’t cleaned properly in that room. They gave me another room which was actually non-smoking, which was good but that room wasn’t cleaned properly either. The person who stayed there before me left a pair of socks in the room which was just lying on the floor. The foldable table was really dirty. Could have been a nice place but eh.
