value for money”
Good location, not far from nijo station. Walk about 7-10 minutes to urban kyoto nijo premium. Bus stop about 5 minutes walk. Add plus point is the supermarket (consider big) near the hotel. We usually had breakfast there with various options of japanese food. We came here during winter, so after a cold attack, try their hot spring! Warm your body and relax your nerves. Cleanliness is perfect! I love to stay in this hotel. Recommended
Near Nijo Castle”
The hotel is near Nijo Castle, about 2 blocks away, and has 711 and grocery store nearby. It is right in front of a bus stop (senbonkyunijo) which is convenient because it's easier to go around Kyoto area by bus. It is also about 2 blocks from Nijo Station. It offers unlimited coffee, which was located near the elevator. The only drawback is that we were going around Kansai area and we found that the most suitable location for JR rail pass travelers was Shin-Osaka, so everytime we went out of Kyoto we had to go back to the hotel riding trains going to Nijo Station, thus requiring a lot of transfers. But overall, if the intention is only to stay in Kyoto, this hotel is most suitable.

new and good for value hotel”
We were already surprised by the size of hotel room in Japan, so by the time we checked in we already knew this hotel is not out of the norm. Unless you want to pay more than 200 usd/ night, room size will not be any bigger than this. The room was well designed, so even though it was small, it was very cozy and everything seems new. The location is good. There is a good french restaurant a few doors down. A 7-eleven, pharmacy, laundromat and a supermarket were all within a 5-minute walk. Nijo station is about 2-3 blocks away. Bus stop is right in front of 7-eleven which was like 20 meters away from the hotel and across the street. We could get to Kyoto station either by bus or train. JR train does go to Nijo station, so our JR pass came handy. The hotel has free public bath/ spa that guest can enjoy and on-site laundromat facility. We will stay at this hotel again.
Great location, wonderful customer service, modern facilities”
Location: Located about 5 minutes from Nijo metro, 6 minutes from Nijo JR station and bus stops just a few meters away. Very convenient for getting around Kyoto and seeing all of the major sights. 7/11, a drug store and restaurants are also within a few hundred meters. Service: Staff were incredibly helpful and the front desk spoke great English. They answered any questions we had and made us feel very welcome. We were travelling for an anniversary and were greeted with a homemade card and complimentary breakfast upon our arrival. What a treat! Food: Breakfast had a variety of Western and Japanese food and was a great way to start the day before sightseeing. Facilities: The room wasn't huge, but it was great for 2 people. Everything was spotless and the bathroom had a delightful rain shower head and a toilet with all the fun Japanese buttons. I would definitely recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a quiet area that is still really convenient.
NEW HOTEL in a GOOD LOCATION”
The hotel was new, which meant the facilities were new too. Love their hot spring, and their complimentary coffee served from morning till night (8pm or so) - it was really good ice coffee. We booked their Twin Rooms, and was only in Kyoto for 3 days. So we travelled light. The rooms maybe a little small if you have big luggages like the 29 inch type. Huge toilets, glass door type. Unlike most hotels in japan with built in toilets (that you have to get into the bathtub to shower), i prefer bigger showers like in this hotel It is walking distance to NIJO CASTLE, Unesco Heritage site. Definitely worth the visit. Highly recommend you to visit this CASTLE compared to OSAKA Castle. Will definitely stay here again if I am back in Kyoto, and will definitely recommend to friends.
Great stay in Nijo/Kyoto”
My wife and I stayed at this hotel for 2 nights. The hotel is approximately 8-10 minutes walk from Nijo station which is 5 minutes from Kyoto station. The hotel is on a main road and build newly in 2015. The STAFF at the front desk were amazing. We reached the hotel in the morning with our big luggage and they were kind enough to offer us to keep the luggage while we went sightseeing. You can also buy the city bus pass from the reception. The room size was relatively small to the USA, but I think that's what's it's like in Japan. Used the spa, which was amazing. Bus stops are a quick walk away, we were able to go to all our destinations by bus or train without much walking or waiting. The staff was very friendly and proficient in English language. They even kept our luggage after we checked out, until we came back for them in the evening. Over all would stay there again. Kudos to the team.
Great service and loved our stay!”
Location of this hotel is great, we walked with our 2 big luggages and 2 kids from Nijo train station, was about 10 mins walk. Bus stop also just outside which is very convenient as we used the bus more to go to the temples and places of interests. As for service, we can't fault the front desk. We left a luggage from a bus service we took from Tokyo to Kyoto. When we arrived at the hotel we requested their help to call the company, they were able to speak on our behalf and got the luggage delivered to the hotel. We got the luggage a couple of days later! Without their help we wouldn't have been able to get our luggage that quickly! Thank you for the person that helped us, we wrote down his name but lost it...thank you to them anyway. Room was good and it had good amenities. Breakfast was great too! I was able to try a few local food which was nice. We would stay here again.
best location”
I love the location, walking distance about 5mins to Nijo subway station..bus stand (senbon kyu nijo) just in front of the hotel..most of the attraction places in kyoto can be access by city bus for example bus #63 can directly bring you to arrashiyama..front desk sell the Kyoto Tourist Pass, the bus daily pass is only 500yen for unlimited rides..totally worth it because normal fare (one way) for bus is 230yen...
