Hotel Granvia Kyoto

10/10 Excellent
"This hotel's location is very convenient. Train station,shopping, restaurants, Kyoto tower, Airport Limousine service are all within walking distance. There are multiple things to do at night around the train station and hotel. Light shows, water light shows, illuminated projections, and displays all setup for photo opportunities. There are skywalks, massive escalators, and walkways everywhere. I spent 3 nights here and still did not see everything. With that said, because of the way the hotel is designed, the rooms can be very far from the elevators, but you can see some of the displays as you walk to your room. I am definitely staying here again. The staff are very courteous and attentive. They even left me a message asking if I needed anything because I left the "Do not disturb" sign out. Who does that these days? They also give you a paper every morning in English or Japanese. Now that's what I call service. We had no issues understanding any of the staff. Almost every spoke English. I can't say enough about how courteous and attentive they all are."
