Kyoto Nakagyo Ward 2-star Hotels

The concept of this hostel is great - something better and more inclusive than a capsule hotel with large, comfortable beds. Pros: The common area and kitchen were really nice, and the free beer hour provided a great way to connect with other travelers. The common area has huge windows looking onto downtown Kyoto. The staff were all super friendly and helpful and spoke English. You are given a keycard for access to the bed floors and after hours. You need to reserve breakfast the day before, but it's right next to St Marcs Cafe which I thought was a great option, so IMO you don't need to use the hostel's breakfast. The showers were good, and I never saw them full despite a lot of people staying here at this time. The laundry machine seemed easy to use as well. The location in downtown Kyoto is obviously great and close to bus stops to reach popular temples on the east side. Cons: The only problem I faced was that the iPod to control my bed and lights rarely worked! The first night, I was unable to recline the bed into sleeping mode or turn off the lights, so staff had to come reset something on top of the pod to get it to connect. It stopped working again after that, and I could not turn the lights on in the morning. I also did not get to use the special wake-up features. Because my stay was only a few days and I wasn't spending leisure time in the pod, I decided to just deal with the unlit pod. Also, I was the only person who I spoke with who had this issue. But the hotel should improve the engineering of the iPod controllers or provide backup physical controls on the side. This wasn't an issue for me, but my medium-sized suitcase would not fit in the pull-out luggage rack under the bed. I had to keep the suitcase closed and on its side between the luggage rack and the screen. I don't think that travelers with large suitcases would be able to fit them in the pod, you'd probably have to find an empty corner in the hallway. Overall, I would recommend staying here, just hope you aren't the unlucky one who gets assigned to a broken pod.

Very good, very cost-effective, the room is spacious and bright, the service is in place, and there is a big bath. It's so comfortable to take a bath. Breakfast was very rich. It is a 10-minute walk from the Snack Pedestrian Street and within walking distance to the busiest neighborhoods. This is the hotel I will stay at next time

Comfortable guesthouse in a quiet street, five minutes walk from Nijo station (JR line), for bus, metro or train. Good restaurants, shops and entertainment within walking distance. It is cozy, clean, comfortable! Beds are okay, breakfast is nice, showers are good. Tommy San is a nice, welcoming and friendly host. He gave me very good tips and suggestions about restaurants, transportation, places to visit and things to see. Rest of staff are also particularly friendly. Warmly recommend Guest House for a stay in Kyoto.

Nice, comfortable, clean, quiet, very close to transportation. Like literally across the street from the nijo station. Once I’m out and about I stay out so the location didn’t bother me...I don’t have to do wardrobe changes throughout the day. Lol. My friend likes to go back and rest...and do wardrobe changes...so it kind of sucked for him, but definitely not a deal breaker. Im considering staying here again if the price is right. At least I know it’s a really nice place and no surprises. I think I found it on hotels.com. This place was a bit more spacious than other places I’ve stayed at in Japan.

A great Japanese-style tatami hotel, a special surprise is that the room area is so large that it is 40 square meters! ! ! The price-performance ratio is very high, and there is a separate bathroom. If you have lived in Tokyo or Osaka, you will feel a lot of relief at once. The waiters are very enthusiastic and will come to make your bed every night, especially there is an old man on the first floor. It is very enthusiastic. From the beginning of check-in, he will answer any questions you have in detail. He recommends all kinds of delicious and fun. The hotel breakfast has Western and Japanese styles, which are all very good. Japanese styles need to be reserved in advance. The only drawback of the hotel is from the subway. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to the station. It is basically located in the center of a block, but the streets and alleys we walk over can really let us experience the local folk customs, especially the many characteristic small shops and izakayas on the roads, waiting for you I found that it will bring you a surprise, and there is also the Kam Market which is only 5 minutes away, which is very worth visiting. Special mention is that there is a Issey Miyake specialty store on the left for a minute after going out, but unfortunately we only found out the morning when we left that they have not yet gone to work~~~~~

If you have always wanted to live in a very Japanese house, it is right to come here! Mundo is a very Kyoto-style squatter homestay, full of Zhaohe flavor interior design and very warm staff, let me feel at home! And the accommodation price is not expensive, much cheaper than the general hotel! I recommend a backpacker or a couple of friends who want to save money. In addition, you can meet many friends from all over the world, and most of the staff can speak English and Chinese. You don't have to be afraid to speak Japanese XD. In addition, you can rent a bicycle here, because the homestay is located in the center of Kyoto. Riding a bicycle to all the attractions will not be too far away!

This is a hotel ideally located only a short walk from the nearest station that provides direct acccess by subway to Kyoto station and is convenient for tourism in Kyoto city.
