Kyoto Universal Hotel Karasuma

Kyoto Prefecture/Kyoto

780m south of Kyoto Station, 230m from Kujo Subway Station.

First store opening in the Kyoto area!! What!? Both breakfast and dinner are free!!

  • My brother and I stayed here for the Gion Ato Festival. This was my second visit; the Room was quiet, and the front desk staff were very helpful. This time as well, my brother and I talked on the way to Kyoto Station about what a good Hotel it is.Thank you for your hospitality.

  • I don’t usually write Reviews, but I was so satisfied with my stay at this Hotel that I wanted to share.The great price, the spacious Room, the cleanliness, and the staff’s service were all excellent.Having both breakfast and dinner included at this price was an amazing deal. It was also very convenient to have a convenience store right next door.If I had one small request: it would be even better if cotton swabs were included in the amenities.If I visit Kyoto again, I’d definitely like to stay here again.
