Good option for everything”

This was hotel 1/5 that we used on our 15 day vcation to Japan. We rated it narrowly 3rd, losing on bed size and access. The Unizo is brilliantly located in Kawaramachi. Close to the market, to Gion, to the night scene district and on many of the public transport hubs that you will need as a tourist. The hotel is comfortable and the room is fine. THe bed really is too small for a European couple, and is hard up against the wall on one side making access for one partner quite cumbersome. At the price and location, you put up with this - but there's quite a bit of space in the room to expand the bed, and improve access to it. A good option, but there's probably quite a lot of choice in this range so it is no slam-dunk.

Great location and only a bus ride away from Station ”

Stayed here for one night a short walk from a lot of activities Having spent previous 2 nights in Unizo Inn at Kanasawa the breakfast choices here did not match up. No Breakfast Rolls or cold meats or cheeses on offer , more than a little disappointing. Everything else was the usual Unizo standard.

This is a wonderful hotel that I would recommend to my friends and family. Relatively new hotel in close proximity to kawaramachi station, nishiki market and plenty of eateries and shops. Hotel staff was polite and helpful. I will definitely return when I re-visit Kyoto.

I’m so happy to find Unizo at Kyoto. The place was wondeful, strategic, clean, nice ambience and service. Very recommended. Totally worth it

Prime Location”

If you are browsing on Unizo Inn, do not think twice. Just book it. Great location, the staff are very helpful, and the accommodation includes simple breakfast.

Outstanding!”

I arrive Kyoto early and the staff let me to leave my luggage there and take care of it before check in which is very good. The location of this hotel is excellent, there are lots of shops and restaurants nearby so you dont really have to worry. The size of the room is ok and the bed is comfortable. I get all the things I needed in the room. A very pleasant stay in Kyoto, really.

great hotel for value, location and amenities”

nicely located in central kyoto in the shopping and restaurant district. you are close to public transit - railway, bus and metro stations. all within 5-15 minutes walking distance. shopping galore. ponto-cho alley, nishiki market, shopping mall all close by within walking distance. has laundry machines and very clean and modern rooms. rooms are bigger and brighter compared to tokyo. nice bathrooms. only problem was we found hair in the bedding and towels.

Perfect ”

The location is perfect,it’s in the center of the city. Very convenient to shop and hang out. The room is clean and well equipment. And the price is so cheap for its advantage. You will have a city view through the window. I love Kyoto. Will choose again!

Great location and room”

Located right in the shopping district of Kyoto. Staff was friendly and responsive. The rooms were sparkling clean (and got to love that smart toilet with heated seat!). Overall great experience for a great price.

Very good”

Hotel is very well located, near to subway and buses that a tourist can easily navigate with the help of a mobile GPS. Places of interest are easily accessible. Hotel reception is small but well manned by I'm most impressed by room and bathroom. The assmotion is rooms are tiny in most Japanese hotel but Unizo Inn's room size isn't that bad. I liked that the hotel is eco friendly too. Housekeeping is first class.

Great location and value , but terrible wifi”

Right in the middle of all the shopping, restaurants, and bars of Kyoto and a good value. The only issue, and it can be a big one for international travelers, is that the wifi basically did not work the entire stay. We had trouble ever getting connected in the room and lobby. Room was fairly large and very clean though.

highly recommend”

close to shopping area, around 10 mins from JR Kyoto station to hotel if taking bus. Most of the famous restaurant are near hotel. Front desk staff are kind and always smile. Very satisfy.

Good location ”

Right at the shopping area of Kawaramachi. Easy to look for foods, shopping. Room space is relatively large compared to others. Worth every penny spent.

Convenient for family with toddlers”

This hotel is in a good location within a major shopping area. It is in between two train stations which goes to most tourist destinations in Kyoto. Staff response is very fast ( when requesting for extra towels) and the hotel is clean. The facilities in the hotel are adequate and the room is very clean.

Excellent”

It was so convenient to shops and eateries. The only thing is that you will need to do train/subway/bus transfers for certain tourist locations. If you stay near Kyoto Station, then your travel around Kyoto will be more accessible.

Great location and room!”

Room was bigger than most japan sized rooms. We had enough room to open both our luggages, so it was the right size. It’s Japan, so we knew the rooms would be small, but this hotel is a little bigger than the other hotels we stayed at. Nothing glamorous but had everything we needed. The location was awesome! Within walking distance to the Nishiki market area and lots of yummy food options around. A little far to walk from the JR station, so I recommend a taxi for that, but it is within walking distance to the other non-JR stations. The only thing I didn’t like was that they informed us we could pay 1000 Yen for early check in at 12, so we came back at 12:30 and was informed our room was not ready. Why tell us that we could do early check in if it wasn’t available? We walked back for nothing. Otherwise, I recommend this place!

Very good”

Facility was fine. Only comment is Kawaramachi street is very crowded from 10 to 10 so if you don’t like crowds another place may be better. Not far from temples and plenty of places to eat.

Exceptional”

The hotel is situated at a great location, and the room is rather spacious for the price. The staff is friendly and helpful. Left my sunglasses in the room and came home. They kindly mailed my sunglasses to me. wonderful experience even after checking out!

Good location”

Right in the center of the city, this is a good place to stay with nice room and good comfort. I enjoyed the place overall but it is maybe not what one can expect of staying in the traditional Kyoto. It's a good location for the night life for sure.
