Kyoto Tower Hotel

Basic amenities/toiletries are by the front desk, so you can pick and choose what you need. There is also soap, shampoo, conditioner, and towels aplenty in the bathroom. The room itself is larger than what I expect from Japanese hotels, and it has a big window that lets in lots of natural light; the window also has traditional shoji screen sliding blinds and curtains that can keep the room dark, if desired. The hotel is literally right across the street from Kyoto Station, which has a lot to offer by itself as well as access to the city's subway network, and checkout is quick and easy. The staff is also very kind and understanding, and have good English skills for foreign travelers. The rooms stay pleasantly warm during the winter, even without a heater or air conditioner running.

The location was excellent. Just across the station and with Kyoto tower as landmark, it was easy to find although there are a lot of exits. The staff was helpful and efficient to arrange for us the luggage delivery. We had the quad room which was really spacious. Only shortfall was the shortfall in breakfast coupons given to us. There was even discount rate to Kyoto tower for hotel guests.

Location was fantastic to find hotel but also for all the sights, directly opposite Kyoto train station central exit. Lots of buses or trains/metro for access to the attractions. There is a food hall underneath the hotel which was amazing and had lots of Japanese food for us to try as well as lots of restaurants around the area and corner shops. Room was larger than some others in Japan. Comfortable bed. Staff very friendly and helpful

First time staying in Kyoto and chose to stay in Kyoto Tower Hotel. Booked the large quadraple room which is adequate and comfortable for family of 4. No regrets with my choice of stay eventhough it is on the pricier side. Thank you to all the staffs who makes our stay a pleasant and welcoming one.
