Great value, convenient location”

My family of 4 (myself, husband and 2 young children) booked the Vessel Hotel Campana Kyoto Gojo for a last minute planned trip. We've stayed in a comparable hotel very close by, so we're familiar with the area. We like the convenient location, just 1 stop away from Kyoto Station or Shijo Station (Shijo has more shopping and dining options). There is a great soba restaurant across the street, a convenience store next door, and a grocery store not too far down the road. I didn't get the chance to try the spa, unfortunately. My family also did not try the buffet breakfast. If you have heavy luggage, I would suggest taking the taxi to and from Kyoto Station as it can be difficult carrying up and down the subway stairs, especially if you have young children with you. For such a last minute trip, it was great value for our money. It was a great, short stay.

Good hotel as base for Kyoto sight seeing”

We’d spent 4 nights here as our base for Kyoto. Hotel is very clean, room is a good size, next to a 7-Eleven and the ladies at the front desk could speak English (at least could help us with directions). It’s 3-mins’ walk from Gojo subway station Exit 3 and approx 20 mins walk from Keihan Kiyomizu-Gojo station. Two bonuses - (i) the hotel has a public bath (gender segregated - in fact the ladies’ has a number lock for security) and (ii) a ‘Handy’ mobile phone for our free use which is most helpful for more local info for sights, food to try and of course, navigation. Thank you, Vessel Campana Hotel for your hospitality! 👍😃

great hotel”

Although the room price in cherry blossom season is very very high, I still choosed this hotel as my first choice. All staff are friendly. The hot spring place is very clean. Thank you Vessel Campana Kyoto Gojo!

Enjoyed our stay!”

We recently stayed at Vessel Hotel and had a lovely time. The location is spot on, only a few steps from the subway station, the staff were all accommodating and helpful, the buffet breakfast offers both Western and Japanese delicious food, the room we stayed at was spotless and the housekeeping staff changed the bedding everyday! - we didn't realize this until we saw our room getting cleaned. The hotel offers welcome drinks (opens everyday at certain time) to guests which I think is a nice touch of hospitality. The hotel also provides a mobile phone (with data and free international calls on certain countries) for guests to use during the stay - a great feature. They also have umbrellas to lend during rainy days. I would have love to soak in the hotel's public bath but just couldn't get myself bathing naked with strangers. Four nights in Kyoto is too short and we would love to visit again, we will definitely stay at Vessel Hotel the next time. Thank you for the hospitality.

Excellent Location with Comfort Room”

Vessel Hotel is located near Gojo station. Convenient traveling for hotel guest to visit Kyoto easily with the subway nearby. There is a wonderful soba restaurant just across the main road. Wonderful stay!

Very good experience, exceeded expectations”

Conveniently located, short walk from Gojo station. Welcoming ambiance of the lobby, very pleasant staff. Free welcome drinks and ice popsicles! Perfect refreshment after a long day of going around in the summer heat. Room is spacious, clean and well-furnished. Complete amenities, small detials that are well-thought of. There's also a free public bath at the 2nd floor, separate men and women. Nice experience, toiletries are provided. Relaxing aftet a long day of walking. Buffet breakfast was so good! Mix of Japanese and Western food. Very impressive hotel, will highly consider to stay here again or any of its other hotel chains if given a chance.

Would definitely go back here or stay in other vessel hotels. Welcome complimentaries are great, the hotel is clean throughout. Location is in quiet area of Kyoto close to subway station.

Good hotel with good facilities ”

Hotel location is good which is a few steps away from Gojo subway station, which makes traveling easy and convenient. The hotel provides free drinks at the lobby. There is also an onsen in the hotel provided free of charge. A 7 eleven is just across a lane. Staff are very helpful and friendly. I stayed in a Twin Room Eco Plan with 2 semi double beds. While the 2 semi double beds just fit my family of 2 adults and 2 young children, the room size was very small. There is no more space to walk or to open the luggage. Overall, it is still a nice hotel to stay in.

Clean, comfortable, good breakfast”

I stayed here with my husband for 3 nights and the reason why I booked this hotel was because of the reviews. Indeed, it is a very new hotel and everything is well maintained. Breakfast selection was very good. They even have amenities which you can help yourself to on the ground floor. The common hot bath in the hotel is really an added value. It is so good to be able to enjoy the hot bath after a long day of walking in Kyoto. I would definitely go back again to this hotel if I am in Kyoto next time.

Fabulous hotel”

Our first stay in a Vessel chain hotel is the one in Nagoya, and that one set a high standard. Everything about it is great. The room finishing, the breakfast (it has avocado, Unagi and beef!) For this hotel, when compared to the one in Nagoya, it is a bit pricier with the rooms a bit older, breakfast (as good, but without the avocado and beef), and the location is not as central... but the Onsen is very nicely equipped and Pajamas provided are very nice.

Comfortable smaller hotel near subway”

This hotel is close to the subway station and only one stop to the JR train station. The staff at check in were helpful and friendly. The room was fairly comfortable and the beds comfortable. WiFi was good. Snacks and soft drinks were also available in the afternoon. Nice bathroom products were available too. The hotel was a nice walk to the Kyoto shopping and restaurant areas and close to other things to do. We had left some items behind and the staff recovered them and had them shipped to our nex5 Hote. We were so impressed. Overall a good hotel for visit to Kyoto.

Exceptional”

Stayed with my two children and mother who is in a wheelchair, so I had to have a wheelchair accessible room. They provided me a great room, very accessible. Location is great, right across from 7/11, and a minute walk away from Gojo train station. Best thing about the hotel is that they provide a public bath for males and females with a hot and cold water bath. First time I’ve experienced taking a dip in a public bath! My family and I had a great stay. :)

The Most Pleasant Hotel Stay Ever”

We really enjoyed our 5 nights in the Vessel. The staff was pleasant, the rooms were clean, loved the free drinks and the kids enjoyed their Dole frozen treats every day. We did our laundry there and the hotel was close to a subway station and 7-Eleven. I didn’t have time to use their onsen, but that’s one of the perks in this hotel. I would definitely stay here again next time.

Good Hotel”

Location is not really good if you are thinking of shopping area. Nearby train station is Gojo Station (Subway) which is one stop after Kyoto Station. Room space is quite small considering we as 2 adults and 2 young children. The best experience we have is the onsen facility of the hotel.

Exceptional”

Our favourite hotel during our 2 week stay in Japan! We loved the vessel! Drinks on arrival, perfect breakfast options for the family, free pram hire. A very cheap taxi fare to the train station for transporting luggage, otherwise subway very handy for day trips and 7-11 next door. The washer/dryer facilities are second to none and of course we loved the experience of the onsen every night. We have recommended to friends already and we would definitely stay again!

Just next to subway station and very good rooms”

Our first stop in this Japanese trip, almost just next to Gojo station, next to a convenience store. Free drink everyday in the afternoon with very good quality. We chose a spacey room at quite good price and was very cozy and clean. Opposite the street there is a popular Kimono rental store on Klook, which we tried and liked very much.

Wonderful hotel!”

This hotel was amazing. Especially for the price. A short walk from the subway station and only 1 stop to Kyoto Station. We even walked it a few times nd my 4 and 7 year old managed fine. The welcome drinks and free face masks etc were a lovely touch. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone going to Kyoto.

Good location”

Very good location abt 5 minutes walking from Gojo station, you get various kinds of free drinks from the machine. My favorite hotel amongst other hotels i stayed in my japan trip and good size of room.

Great amenities and location. ”

We loved this hotel. Very clean, super friendly staff, and lovely facilities. The public bath was wonderful, and the hotel provides amendities such as toiletries to make your stay easy and comfortable. It’s steps from the subway station, or a 10-15 minute walk to Kyoto station, so the location was wonderful. Would highly recommend this hotel to friends visiting Kyoto.
