Convenient clothes washer in room with detergent supplied, bath shower had a heater thing with hangers for drying which worked well. Came with a decent sized fridge and small freezer, microwave, kettle, and stove top of you wanted to cook. Small bedroom living space, very tight all around. The blankets were too warm so needed to have AC going and kicking blankets on and off all night, but AC worked well. Shower water pressure was great, staff was really nice, they only clean the rooms every few days though but gave lots of towels and cloths for spare.

The staff was super kind and helpful. we sent our luggage from our Tokyo hotel to this hotel in Kyoto and they were able to send it to our room before we got there. The room we stayed in had a microwave, fridge, and washing machine which we used.This hotel was relatively close to the “Geisha District.” It is also close to a McDonald’s.

Room was clean, fairly large, and having washing machine in the room was a blessing. Location seemed initially to be a bit remote - but in fact it was smack in the middle of everything we wanted to visit and easy walk to Sanjo (restaurants galore!). Definitely recommend Stay Sakura.

Very clean. Located on a quiet but major transport street. Bus stop right outside the hotel. Subway station around the corner. I found it very easy to get around Kyoto by bus from this hotel. There were at least 3 bus routes that passed by. Subway station was around the corner. Fresco grocery store was down the block. Family Mart was also down the block. MacDonald and other restaurants were close by as well. The kitchenette allowed us to bring in food and eat in the room while do our laundry! Walking 2 blocks takes you to the heart of the shopping district.

Literally just steps to bus stop. Snug fit for 4 people, not mush room for luggage, but that’s the way all the rooms are in Japan. It was so clean and shower pressure was great. They also have a heating element to dry clothes so it made doing laundry super easy. Highly recommend!

Note when checking in, go to the Kyoto Stay Japan Guest Service Center which is located on Karasuma dori across the road from the Daiwa Roynet Hotel and next to Family Mart.

He gave us the recommendation of the Toji temple at night and we absolutely loved it. Thank you Mark for making our trip to Kyoto so seamless and wonderful!

Serviced apartment with good location

The room (a serviced apartment) was a good size and, apart from a few missing items (knife, bowls), was well kitted out. The location is very good. Negatives are that staff do not speak much English and the furniture in the room is not as well arranged as it could be. In particular, two twin beds was too much for a room of this size and more space for hanging clothes could have been provided.

Nice and clean hotel but beware of luggage storage

The hotel is very clean and modestly nice. It's just what we needed in our Kyoto stay. I have nothing negative to say about the condition of this hotel as it is very well-kept and the rooms have everything we needed. My complaint is about the lack of support from the reception and the 1,500 yen charge to keep the luggage. I had a fit and complained about this and they didn't end up charging me in the end. It's not a cheap hotel so we shouldn't have to pay for keeping our luggage on our check-out day. I've never had any hotel (expensive or cheap) charge me for luggage storage. The location is OK. It doesn't really have a lot of restaurants or stores around it but it's walkable to the city center (maybe 10 mins minimum) and Gion (20 mins).

The place has an excellent location. It is like 200 m from the Higashiyama Metro Station. There are many touristic attractions nearby. I was staying in a Superior Apartment with two beds. The apartment was clean and air-conditioned, which worked quietly. A part of the apartment is a small kitchen equipped with a small ceramic two-heater stove, fridge, microwave, sink, and a washing machine. I have to admit that I have not used the kitchen, but it is a nice feature for peoples who like to eat their own meals. The internet is free and has sufficient speed. The staff is nice and helpful. Now some limitation that one should know about: - The reception is only open from 16 until 23. No one is there the rest of the time. I have locked out myself and had to call their central office. However, within 20 minutes somebody has come and let me in. I am not sure how this would work at night when the central office is closed. - There is no wardrobe in the room but only a standing hanger on which many clothes will not hang. - The apartment is being cleaned every few days. - The entrance to the hotel is partially below the ground. Windows in rooms at level 1 face a solid wall (no view). I have to admit that it was not bothering me as my goal was to explore Kyoto, not to stay in the apartment. On the other hand, having the apartment partially below the ground made it very quiet. - Almost all controls have Japanese descriptions, so be sure to bring some online translator.
