Breakfast included was nothing special.
You couldn't turn the toilet light on during the night as you had to turn the room light on first.

Everything was perfect!! The room was clean, the bed very comfortable and the shower awesome!!! At checkout we were able to lock our luggage in a locker, when for a small visit to the shrine and came back to pick up our luggage and go to the station. Staff is super friendly and the hotel have a great location. Highly recommended!

We love this hotel, Staff are very helpful. We are able to check in early and store our luggages for couple of hours after check out.

Rooms are clean and free toiletries and water bottles everyday.

Free mini breakfast.

Just 2 mins walk to Nishiki Market and shopping.

3-5 minutes walk to bus and train stations.

Clean, modern, great value hotel. Friendly staff, handy light breakfast and great location 9/10 stay.
Let down by lack of useability of the room space. No shelves, hanger, one small table- everything just ends up on the floor!
But great showers, beds, super location- away from some main elements but to its advantage re shops and food

Had a two night stay here in May 2026. Rooms were clean and modern, and location was relatively central. Downsides: No access to water besides the two bottles they gave us during check in. The “free” breakfast was insultingly small in terms of portion- would have been better for us if that hadn’t been an expectation since we ended up going out for breakfast both days anyway.

Great location! Clean and staff was tremendous! Manager (fluent in English) helped me resolve a SUICA card issue, by writing out the problem in Japanese. Presented it to subway service tech, he read the note, resolved the card issue… “Okie Dokie” less than a minute!
They also had onsite washing machines! Tremendously useful (600 yen) halfway thru trip to clean up suitcase clo th es!
Breakfast included, minimal amount by US standards, but coffee and tea were on point! Would not hesitate to stay at a Prince Smart hotel elsewhere in Japan now but especially in Kyoto they are doing very nice things here!
Well done!

Hotel is in prime shopping areas and restaurants. It’s a block away so enough to be close but away from traffic. Such a cute area to be in. The hotel itself is really clean and staff is super friendly. They provide a light breakfast which was simple but good. We had chocolate bread, mini croissant, scrambled eggs, & pasta salad with drinks. I also like that it’s easy to check in and out. I can also talk to AI to wake me up or give me recommendations as well. The best part was the bed and blankets. They were so soft and fluffy I could melt in them.

A very convenient location for markets, street food, and convenience stores, literally a couple of minutes away. It is a but of a walk from the subway, about 12-15 minutes. But is also the same amount of time to walk to malls and all other stores for shopping! There are 3 laundry machines which were almost always in use during the night, but we were able to do laundry in the morning just fine!

The hotel was in a convenient location to commute to attractions like Arashiyama Bamboo Grove (the city bus stop was less than 500m away), Fushimi Inari or Nara Park (train from Sanjo Station).

Staff was welcoming and helpful from reception to departure. I arrived an hour before check-in and thanks to their storage lockers, was able to leave my luggage and get started on my exploring of Kyoto without much delay or hassle! Similarly, I was able to store my luggage after check-out to get a couple more hours of sightseeing in before departing.

The complimentary breakfast was nice to have before or after my morning adventures too.

Very nice and new hotel and room but not practical. The bath layout is not convenient and not private. Suitable (maybe) for couples only.
No closet, but only few hangers on the wall.
No place for suitcases. No towels hangers.
The window glass is coated - you cannot see anything outside. Better if they were using regular windows + curtains.
Almost no stuff - you are directed to a machine for check in and out.
Complementary breakfast is a disaster and better if was not proposed - poor variety and very low quality.
Good location and good bedding.

I had a wonderful stay at Prince Smart Inn. I was greeted with the bubbliest of receptionists who helped me get checked in and greeted me every time I passed, full of personality who even offered to give me change for my bill (albeit they didn't have enough) but it was still a lovely gesture regardless. Another receptionist called a hotel for me to arrange luggage transfer with another hotel as I had issues calling them (the luggage transfer was next door).

Having free breakfast in the morning was also convenient and the people serving were also really nice. The location was awesome and right next to the bustling Teramachi street and only a few minutes walk from public transport and Nishiki street. The rooms were clean and spacious enough for six luggages (two carry on) and the bathroom was nice.

Laundry was a bit of an issue as there was only two machines in the entire hotel from what I could find, making it hard to do laundry during the night. But overall had a wonderful experience and would definitely stay again!

Great modern hotel with surprisingly spacious rooms for Japan. Good architectural design though has low bulk heads that may not suit tall people. Great shower so much better than an old school bath. Couldn’t fault the place though the poor staff did sometimes look like they wished they could be somewhere els other than old lady the cafe at breakfast was such a joy. Not keen on the AI alarm clock. Best to unplug it so it’s not spying on you the whole time. My only complaint is they are more concerned with aesthetics over service. I would still recommend the hotel and stay there again.

This is more of a hostel than a proper hotel. It is very basic and at times surprising at lack of amenities and free breakfast is terrible (power soup, bad coffee, stale bread and a boiled egg). For example, there are no cups/ kettle in the room. They only provide one bottle of water and there are signs at cafe in morning where breakfast is served that you cannot request hot water and you can only use 2 oz cups provided for water. I’d rather stay at a capsule hotel at 1/5th the price as bathroom is very basic and in not in a separate room. This is a good option when prices are low but very poor value for $300 Canadian a night when there are hotels in the area that are so much better. Will not be recommending or staying here again due to abundance of much better options in Gion.

Great modern hotel

(+) Convenient location to many attractions. Clean and modern rooms. Excellent showers with strong water pressure and multiple showerheads / jets. Light daily breakfast included.

(-) Laundry machines are inefficient washer/dryer combos (clothes smelled unclean after washing and did not dry even after 2 hours. Best to just use outside coin laundry if laundry is needed).
