Kyoto Hotel Guide - Gojō Bridge hotels in Kyoto, Japan.

"Had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The location was excellent, right in the heart of the shopping and gourmet district, making it very convenient to explore the area. While it is not exactly next to Gion, it is still within a comfortable walking distance. The room was extremely comfortable, clean, and spacious enough for two people even with our large luggage. What stood out most was the excellent service from the hotel staff. Everyone was warm, friendly, and very helpful throughout our stay, which made us feel truly welcomed. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience. In fact, I have already booked another family trip and will be staying at Cross Hotel again this December. Looking forward to returning!"

"The room was beautiful, well appointed and very clean. The restaurant staff were wonderful and very attentive. My only comment would be that the front desk staff felt a little indifferent at times. All in all we really enjoyed our stay."

"Hotel was in a fabulous location walking distance to everything within reason all very close to subway stations. Super friendly. There was a Starbucks 7-Eleven and Tully‘s coffee place right underneath."

"I've stayed at many Smile hotels in the past. This one has much smaller rooms! Other than great, it has a GREAT staff, very friendly and helpful! It's near the Kyoto Station. It's very easy to find, as it is in the direction where the Kyoto Tower is. When you get out of Kyoto Station's main/central entrance FACING the Kyoto Tower, with the station behind you, walk straight up for 4-5 minutes on the left side of the street/boulevard. You should be passing the huge temple on your left hand, and you should be on the same side of the street as the temple is. The hotel is literally right after the metro exit, like 5 steps after the metro exit of the Gojo stop. You can take the metro back and forth between the hotel and Kyoto Station. It's just ONE stop! Get off the Gojo stop and remember to take the correct exit to end up next to the hotel! Say "Hi!" to the staff member and mention "Anime Power!" to the staff members. They will know what it means :-) Thanks, Smile Hotel!"
