Hotels near Old Rissei Elementary School, Kyoto

Overall, my stay was quite comfortable, making it a great choice for business travelers who need to work on the go. The room was fully equipped with an adjustable standing desk, a large monitor, and a mechanical keyboard, providing excellent working conditions. However, this complete setup took up a significant amount of space, and I hadn't anticipated such facilities, which made the room feel a bit cramped and confining. The bathroom only had a separate shower stall, no bathtub, but toiletries and disposable slippers were well-provided. Many Japanese hotels usually don't offer slippers proactively, requiring you to fetch them yourself or not offering them at all, so this thoughtful touch was appreciated. The vanity counter was exceptionally spacious, making it easy to place personal items. The bed was soft and comfortable, offering a good rest experience. The guest rooms are in a unique location, situated above several yakitori restaurants. During dinner hours, there was a faint charcoal aroma in the air – not strong, but clearly noticeable. There's a significant time restriction: the main entrance closes after 11 PM. The building is connected to shops on the ground floor, and the front desk is located on an upper floor. After closing, there's no one at the door, so late arrivals cannot enter independently. On this occasion, I was fortunate enough to enter by following other hotel guests. The overall check-in process wasn't convenient. The location is the biggest highlight, right next to the Takase River, with exceptionally beautiful riverside views. The shops downstairs offer a rich selection, making dining out very convenient, and the surrounding commercial district is well-developed. Being close to both high-end malls and budget-friendly shops means all shopping needs can be met nearby. It's also due to this prime location that one can truly appreciate the unique beauty of the Takase River. The overall experience was decent, but the breakfast quality was outstanding. There's a dress code for dining; slippers are not permitted. You can choose between a Japanese set meal or an American breakfast set, with an additional self-service buffet area. The ingredients were carefully selected; the orange juice was freshly squeezed on the spot, and the honey was prepared right there, far superior in quality to pre-made meals. The breakfast area also offered excellent views, making for a superb dining experience. Overall, the location and meals were exceptional, but the accommodation itself was just okay.

I really liked the shower with a bathtub, and the capsule hotel itself was in good condition. However, I was a bit disappointed with the service. I guess it might have been a unique situation. After checking in and going to my locker, there was a note saying I had an important message and to come to the counter. When I went, they told me someone was sleeping in my room? Excuse me? I was given room 106, but then they told me the guest from room 119 was sleeping in 106, and asked if I could just use room 119 instead? Room 106 was on the first floor, and 119 was on the second, and I was so tired from walking that I really didn't want to go up to the second floor. I initially asked if I could speak to the person who was supposedly sleeping there, using a translator. They said okay and went to check, but then there was no one in the room? But they said someone was sleeping there... There were signs of someone being there, like a charger, an overturned blanket, and other belongings. I asked them to contact me if they managed to talk to the person, but after a long wait, no one showed up. It was past 11 PM, and I just wanted to shower and sleep, so out of exhaustion, I said I'd just use room 119. After I showered, they brought the person from room 119! It was a foreigner, and all three of us were using different language translators to communicate, haha. They asked if I wanted to switch rooms then, but they weren't going to change the bedding again... I felt uneasy about it, so I just said I'd use room 119 and went to sleep. I really feel the initial handling of the situation was very disappointing. I still don't understand why someone was in a different room to begin with. Anyway, that's what happened, haha.

This hotel provided everything I needed for my trip. The location is excellent, with convenient transportation and shopping options. What I particularly loved was being close to the Kamo River, perfect for a morning or evening stroll – it felt wonderful. As for breakfast, it was nutritious enough.

The cleanliness at Kyoto Hachijo Miyako Hotel was truly impressive. The room was spotless, the bedding felt brand new, and the bathroom was fresh with no unpleasant odors. Every detail showcased their high service standards, making for a truly comfortable and reassuring stay!

Convenient location once you're there - walking distance to Nishiki market and many attraction. However it is about 500m from the train station, so you need to factor this in if bringing big luggages or traveling with anyone who can't walk far. Room is good sized for Japanese hotel. And the room is very clean, well designed and has everything you need. Free amenities at reception. Breakfast spread is small but sufficient, the variety remained unchanged in the 4 days we are there. Free coffee tea at reception. Super value for money.

Absolutely loved this hotel. Booked it in a rush and couldn’t be more satisfied. I was more pleased that this was a my 4 night stay in Kyoto during my Japan trip this year. The style of the room is a modern traditional Japanese room, with tatami inspired floor for the bed area, separating the entrance and wash areas. The main bed is raised so there’s plenty of room underneath to store multiple luggages. I loved that there is a small wooden folding table that has its own wall hanger when not used. The toilet is also separated from the shower/tub room, and wash area with a sink and large mirror. Each area had its own sliding door. Extra toiletries available in the main lobby included bath salts, which was perfect for relaxing in the tub after hiking Mount Inari to the top. I was solo travelling but booked a 2 person room as that was the only one available at the time, and the price was just right.

This is a Finnish designer-designed hostel, which is the most satisfying youth travel in Kyoto, suitable for but traveling alone. The location is excellent, walking distance to Karasuma Shijo, there are many specialty shops and restaurants, coffee nearby. The hostel is fully equipped, even a full set of pajamas, daily towels change. The space is exquisitely designed and spacious, with unlimited tea and coffee available. There is a separate bath space.

It was really good to stay at Resol, the staff were friendly, the rooms were clean, the location was excellent- right in the middle of the high street- but the hotel itself served as a sanctuary and can I add, the scent when you walked in was heavenly- I even bought their signature essential oil. The hotel offers experiences for their guests, I watched a Maiko dance and practiced calligraphy with a calligraphy master. The rooms were just right - they provide pyjamas, slippers, and all the things you need, like a phone charger- that was super helpful and convenient for travelers who might need converters. Breakfast was just OK, what was on offer and the selection could be significantly improved to match the standard of the hotel. Also, they provide a laundromat for anyone who wishes to wash their clothes, which Is great, the only downside is that there was a lot of dust everywhere from the dryer- so this made it hard to use it. Nevertheless a great experience.

Very nice hotel and helpful stuff. Hotel is little bit old but very clean with very spacious rooms. The location of the hotel is perfect, on the walking distance from the metro station, Gion quarter ( 5 minutes) and Nishiki market (15 minutes). We enjoyed our time in Kyoto.
