Kyoto hotell

It was a comfortably sized room. Pretty decent location. Check in staff spoke English and check in and check out was a breeze. There are plenty of restaurants near by and the Fresh Mart at the end of the block was great. It was a little hard to find at first.

Hotel location is close to Kyoto train station and the new Aeon Shopping Mall. The mattress is as firm as it gets. I had difficulty sleeping on my side or back. The hotel configuration is not suitable if your room is situated far from the elevator. It seems the elevator is at one end of hotel and our room at the opposite end. Hotel is U-shaped and we walked liked 200 meters to the elevators.

Simple. Clean. Very good access to JR Station. Fast wifi connection.

very clean and cozy hotel, convenient location

The location is perfect to walk to restaurants, shops, buses & subway trains. The staff and accommodations were outstanding. The price was very reasonable. They charged extra for two beds rather than a king.

Clean room, spa service was excellent! Staff was super helpful. Convenient location.

Great location and clean room Tiny room

I stayed at The Kyoto Royal Hotel and Spa for my first trip overseas as well as my first trip to Japan. Some of the cultural differences where noted such as heights of sinks, counter tops, and showers. The room I stayed in had a Double Semidouble-deluxe bed. It was in fact 1 bed and was comparable to a full/queen size. I thought there would be two. The bed could sleep for two I suppose. The room I had was just enough to accommodate myself. Seeing as I am a minimalist and being a lone traveler, this worked out fine for me. The hotel is right next to a subway station, river walk, and market the next block over. I highly recommend getting the breakfast buffet included with your room. It is totally worth it! The Prandina does a excellent job with both food and staff. Food is excellent with a wide variety of choices. You have the option to eat local foods or foods that you would eat if you were back home. The food presentation is wonderful and is replenished very quickly. Hotel staff is very friendly and are very professional. Hotel staff also opens doors for you when getting out of the taxi! No need to walk far for access to transit or taxis, Taxis are ready available once outside the hotel lobby and bus stops are right outside the hotel as well. You will just need to know what bus or train to take (research that to death before you go! It can be overwhelming and you will probably get lost at some point). I believe bike rental is available at the front desk as I saw the same bikes everyday. I did have a local friend visit me daily as I toured the city. She traveled by bike and the hotel stored her bike in their storage free of charge while we were out in a separate location from the fore mentioned bikes. Also, if you are flying back home from any of the Osaka Airports, the hotel can request for a shuttle service to pick you from the hotel up to 1 day prior by 12:00 noon at a cost to you, which you must pay the driver at the time of pick up, The cost will vary by service provided and service rendered. I do hope this review is helpful to someone and, Yes! I will stay there again on my next trip to Kyoto, Japan.

Location Room size English speaking staff Very clean 3rd bed for a 3rd person is pull out couch & very hard. Although, I was very happy they even had a 3 person room, so it's not that much of a negative.

I like the design of the hotel the most. Lobby area is very spacious and nice. Breakfast was wonderful. Rooms are very nicely decorated with simple zen design. The bathroom area was very well planed and nicely done. The restaurants were not up to their standards. The food was average and the price was certainly high.

Rooms nice modern and spacious. Great bathroom and shower. Staff all spoke English and extremely nice and helpful Everything

The Staff was very polite and helpfull.
