This was a great starting point to explore Kyoto during our four-night stay. Just outside the most busy areas this was a quiet but walkable respite each evening. Good dining options are close by. We recommend the Sotetsu Fresa Inn.

Staff was extremely nice, amenities were self serve so no unnecessary/wasted ones in our room, spacious room, bed extremely comfortable, decent breakfast buffet. Only minus was the cleanliness was lower than at other japanese hotels. The room's side tables were not well wiped down and were a little sticky along the sides. We also found a cockroach in our room our first day. Yes we had open snacks in the room, but we were on the 6th floor so it didn't come in off the street...
