The location of this hotel in Kyoto is o`kay considering the position of other hotels close to the station and main bus terminal where all the action starts and ends. The staff are competent and helpful and the breakfast is very good. There seem to be many catagories of rooms. We were surprized at the small size of ours booked... More

My recent stay with a friend in the hotel was superb. The shuttle bus to the station made arriving and departing by train so fast and easy. It was also convenient in order to go to the Fushimi shrine outside the city. The concierge, Naoko Shimizu, was fantastic. She was so patient with our needs and spent a lot of... More

The Kyoto Tokyo hotel which is literally just a slight walk from Kyoto station (they also have a shuttle service to and from kyoto station between 8 am and 8 pm) is a hotel that goes beyond what you would expect from one. My wife was unfortunate enough to aggrevate a corn on her foot during our holiday and when... More

Staff was wonderful, food was delicious. It has a great lounge and rooms were very comfortable and efficient. However: NO WIFI...in 2012...need to fix They have an efficient shuttle service to and from the train station It is a doable but long walk to the market and the shopping street (their 5th ave) Overall very good!

I have used this hotel on various business trips over the past 8 years. Always a friendly welcome, good breakfast and easy transport if you use taxi’s. 10 min by taxi from Kyoto station. A quite location ideal if your just spent 20 hours travelling. Reasonable price for a business traveller. More

I recently traveled to Kyoto for a work conference in late November 2011. While the conference itself was located at the convention center and required a daily train commute, I am very satisfied with my decision to stay at Kyoto Tokyu Hotel. Prior posts have commented that the location is not ideal. However, I found the hotel to be easily... More

The important thing to know with this hotel is that it's a long way to Gion - which is where you'll want to eat and explore. It's a long long walk to the nearest train station or you can take two buses to get to town. It takes about 20 minutes to half an hour depending on traffic. Our room... More

Great hotel and a good location - tucked away into the Kyoto silence. Next to a huge temple. I do not review service quality in Japan! More

The room was modern, well equipped and clean, and size was ok. The hotel has attractive water feature/garden. Good underground parking though you pay a fee. We enjoyed the food in the main restaurant/coffee shop. They also have two other restaurants specializing in Japanese and Chinese food that we didn't try. The staff were extremely friendly and went out of... More
