Great hotel in a perfect location
Very helpful staff, beautiful room, great view
10
The Granvia is the perfect place to stay in Kyoto. Everything is close: tourist information, trains, buses, post office, department store, shops, food.
The rooms are spacious and well equipped. I have stayed there before and will certainly stay there again.
Restaurant Tip:
There are many restaurants underneath the station in the Porta area.

Staff lovely, nice hotel . . . . Recommended!!!
Located JR station, great views. Spacious rooms
8.7
Views were great from our room's large window. There was a coffee table and two comfortable chairs to relax and enjoy the scenery. Our room was spacious, clean and tastefully decorated.
*** a major drawback was we requested a non smoking room at check-in, but when we entered the room we found it reeked of cigarette smoke. The concierge who escorted us agreed. We should have said something immediately and regret we didn't. We were aware of the smell throughout our stay ****
Paid for Internet but could not find "@" on keyboard for my hotmail address, so gave up as staff appeared busy with check-ins and I would need to queue up.

Nice hotel with good view
8.7
We took a train from Namba Osaka to Kyoto station, the hotel is just few minutes walk from the Kyoto station, very convenient. I like the big space station with plenty of japanese noodle shops around and there are alot of buses to get you to the attractions in Kyoto. The hotel lobby looks grand, room was spacious with nice view. Will stay there again the next time i visit kyoto.

What you should expect for the price
9.3
Exactly the type of service and comfort you would expect for the price tag. If you want to splurge, then this is the place to do it.

Beautiful hotel in an excellent location
Bars and shops, concierge service
8.7
This was my fourth and best time in Kyoto and first time in this excellent hotel. The concierge service helped me organize my sightseeing and the location of the restaurants where I already had made reservations. The hotel is at the beautiful Kyoto station and so access to subways, taxis, metros and trains could not have been easier. Food and drink at the hotel was excellent and access to the many wonderful retaurants of Kyoto easy due to the great location. I wanted a double bed and although I had a twin room, they were able to provide me with a double. It was always service with a smile.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Or it'd bar is excellent. Southern comfort bar has beautiful view.

Centrally located with western comforts
good location close to train, restaurants and shops
9.3
Highly professional service. The rooms were clean and good size. Loved being able to flop into a nice clean western style bed after a hectic day of sightseeing, shopping or dining out.
The breakfast was a bit pricey.
