We had a fantastic stay at the Screen. The hotel was a short walk to Nishiki Market but on a nice quiet street away from the busy area. The room was very large and well designed. The best part of our stay was the hotel staff that were very kind and went out of their way to make sure that we enjoyed our stay. We would definitely return to the Screen for any future trips to Kyoto.

I stayed in February 2025. The Screen is a unique boutique hotel situated in a quieter part of Kyoto but still within walking distance to attractions like Gion. There are also some great restaurants and cafes nearby. From what I understand, the hotel offers 13 rooms, each designed by a different designer. I was in the orange room, which was super spacious with room for a king bed, a separate lounge/living area (complete with orange leather couch), full wall vanity and desk area, a full closet and bathroom. Despite the spaciousness, I found a couple things to be unusual within the room itself - firstly, I don't believe there was a built in ventilation fan in the bathroom and the staff asked me to use the dehumidifier unit supplied in the bathroom. Odd for a modern hotel but it wasn't a big deal. There was also what I perceived to be an odd electrical anomaly (or a ghost, if you prefer ;)) but the vanity light would flicker now and then for the briefest moment at random times. I also noticed that some of the surfaces in the room could use a little bit of a refresh with chipped paint and wallpaper starting to peel. Other than that, my stay was pleasant and the staff were very friendly and helpful. I left my watch behind as well and they notified me immediately. They also arranged to have it delivered to my next hotel. Overall, The Screen is a fine place to stay, with very helpful staff and plenty of space, which is a nice departure from more cramped accommodations.

10/10 beautiful boutique hotel. Stayed for 2d1n with my partner. The room was amazing, great overall mix of modern/traditional design. We stayed in the red themed room which was randomly assigned I believe based on availability. The room amenities were fabulous, with even his/her loungewear/pj's and bathrobes for our use that were actually really comfortable. The bed was amazing, the pillows were flat but I guess that's just the standard preference in Japan. The in room jacuzzi/hot tub was lovely but the Jacuzzi function didn't work. Unfortunately towards night time (9pm) the wifi was extremely weak in room and we had to use our own portable wifi to even just go on social media on our mobiles. We tried to get assistance from the staff but unfortunately we had spoken communication (English) issues with most of them. However they were all super sincere in trying to help us to the best of their abilities which I'm so greatful for. Location wise was great, close 5-10min walk to 7-11, metro and bus stations. Overall will definitely recommend this for a romantic short trip.

Love the design of our suite. This city is walkable and you need to walk so be ready. The metro station is within 15 minute walk, the bus stop is about 10 minute walk. There is a terrace where you can take your own drink. The hotel is quiet and secluded, not much happening here. Loves the welcoming gift and the refills on the mini bar. Book the Japanese breakfast it’s a great experience.
