We are a family of four with two young boys. The hotel was conveniently located within a 10 minute walk from the Kyoto main station. The lobby was very clean and the staff was very helpful in storing our luggage. They even have special luggage locks. Our room was very clean and the staff was very helpful. We’re definitely consider staying here for my next visit to Kyoto.

Definitely get the morning breakfast buffet if so convenient and has both western and Japanese options available

Hotel est très proche de la gare du Kyoto, ce qui rend très facile nos déplacements ( 5 min de marche ou moins) . La chambre est très propre. Rapport/qualité 10/10. Excellent service de livraison disponible pour envoyer nos valises à l’hôtel d’Osaka et de garder nos valises après le check-out pour toute la journée, ce qui nous donne une journée supplémentaire pour visiter le Kyoto avant d’aller à Osaka.

This was definitely a convenient hotel to Kyoto station, and the staff was accommodating. The room itself was a little underwhelming in that the beds weren't the most comfortable (didn't use 100% cotton sheets (partially synthetic, which doesn't breathe as well), mattress was too firm), and the bathroom had some maintenance issues. Nothing major, but would probably look elsewhere next time. For context, I travel to Kyoto 2-3 times a year for work and stay for 1-2 weeks at a time.

About 5 mins walk from Kyoto Station in a quiet neighborhood. The exterior of the building looks modern but inside the lobby feels cramped. Staff is friendly but awkward when she asked me to pick tea & coffee packs from a basket. Our room located at the end of the hallway & the interior has an odd layout & outdated decor. The double bed is tucked in one corner & the mattress looks sinking. The dark colored carpet & curtains + insufficient lighting make the room very depressing. Obviously, we weren't happy with the assigned room so decided to leave early in the morning to our next destination. We paid for a deluxe double room but the condition is far less than our expectation.

Walking distance to Kyoto Station

One night at this Daiwa Roynet property in Kyoto as I extended my stay in Kyoto and there was not availability at my first hotel, for my final night. So, I chose this hotel based on my pleasant stay at their property in Tokyo Ginza and this location within walking distance of Kyoto train station. They clearly cater to businessmen and apparently there are lots of smokers too. Requested a non-smoking room but the odor of smoke was clearly apparent in my room, probably from the ventilation system? Overall good value and location and staff was pleasant.

This is conveniently located near Kyoto station.

Not many places open at 6:30 am and you want to start your day early because there are too many places to visit.

However we got a smoking room, the room stunk bad, we couldn't have the air conditioning on because it recycled smoky air, we had the window open the whole time 3 days and by the last day the room still had a faint smell. Because the window was open the street traffic was noisy at all hours of the day and night. Room was so small, like a shoebox. Breakfast was very disappointing, not a large spread or nice food.

Convenient location, clean room and great breakie

The hotel is in a really convenient location, opposite Kyoto station and is a short walk to the subway. Most of the walk is within the station, under cover, so it was really convenient even when it rained and snowed.
The room is very clean and well equipped, though not all the functions on the electronic toilet worked properly, though we didn't use them. Buffet breakfast cost only 1030 yen and included a good spread of western and eastern selections, food was really fresh and plentiful, even if you sat down to eat 15mins before they closed. Staff were quite friendly and professional.
