Convenient but a disappointing stay

This hotel is a stone's throw away from Kyoto station and as such, it is convenient. I chose this hotel as it had perks for hotels.com with 'gold' status. I was upgraded to a slightly larger room which was so small that to get on or off the bed, you would have to climb to the foot of the bed and get down from there. For someone with a bad back, this was terrible. Breakfast was also a disappointment. The selection was small and a lot of the items were no longer hot. This included the miso soup and porridge. It is a waste of money to buy breakfast at this hotel. The service was good as the staff was attentive but I wouldn't be staying here again (considering the options that are available by the train station).

The hotel was next to Kyoto Station, which made it incredibly convenient. The room was very clean, but not very spacious (although average for Japanese standards). The hotel was at walking distance to some attractions (temples, museums). Breakfast had a large selection of items (Japanese and non), but the quality of the food was average. Overall a good choice.

The hotel has a really elegant feel as soon as you go up the escalator. The staff are extremely sweet and helpful. The room was gorgeous. The bed was super comfortable and the bath tub was just the perfect addition to soak every night. This hotel was convenient to access and close to many areas for food and accessing the trains. Highly recommend staying here. Also, the staff help you with the Kuro Neko luggage services to send to your next hotel.
