Around Nijo Castle × Accommodation With Relaxing Welcome LoungeHighly-rated Hotel·Ryokan

This was my first stay here. From the moment I arrived at the Hotel, the staff’s hospitality at the entrance was so attentive that it’s impossible to compare with other hotels. When I entered my Room, it was spotless—not a speck of dust—and I was truly impressed by the outstanding skill of the housekeeping team. In the evening, I used in-room dining and had grilled vegetables, soup, and focaccia. Everything was absolutely delicious and genuinely moving. If you stay here, I highly recommend trying in-room dining. This time I booked a Plan with breakfast included, so I enjoyed breakfast at the restaurant on the first floor. There were three options to choose from, and I felt it’s a menu loved by guests of all ages. I traveled here from Tohoku, and it took quite a bit of time and money—but this was an exceptional Hotel that still made me think, “I want to stay here anyway!” Thank you very much for taking such great care of me during my stay.

Since all guests have dogs, you don’t need to worry about being considerate of others without pets. Everything was thoroughly cleaned, and the staff were outstanding. The location is also excellent, so you can fully enjoy Kyoto with your dog. This is the best Hotel for dog lovers—so great that it feels like everyone becomes a repeat guest.

When I visit Kyoto, I often choose this Accommodation for the following reasons: - Close to central Kyoto - Capsule-hotel style, yet with private rooms available - A large public bath with perfectly partitioned washing areas - Clean - Affordable - A relaxing 1st-floor lobby - A great selection of drinks in the 1st-floor lobby This time, I was especially impressed by the new coffee machine and the unique tea flavors. It really feels like a Hotel that is always improving.

We stayed here for a family event. It was a very comfortable Hotel. We would definitely like to stay here again.

Even during the Obon season, we were able to stay at an affordable price regardless of booking last-minute, and the Room was spacious and clean. We also enjoyed drinks in the lounge, which was great. It is a very convenient Hotel close to the station, with easy access to both JR and the subway. I would like to stay again next time.

I stayed here because I was curious about it as a Hotel under Polaris HD. The Room felt smaller than I expected, but the furnishings and amenities were excellent, and I had a comfortable stay. The view from the Room is of a residential area, so it is not particularly impressive, but the building itself is clean and well maintained. Breakfast featured a wide selection of carefully prepared dishes with good nutritional balance, and everything was very delicious. It is a bit far from the station, so access was the only drawback, but overall I think it offers great value for money.

I was able to relax very comfortably. Even on the first floor, you can work, unwind, and enjoy a lovely view. The room is a bit dark, so it can be difficult to work or read. It also felt a little awkward that the toilet area is partially see-through. There were plenty of towels, and everything was very clean and well maintained. The staff were kind and helpful as well. Convenience stores are a bit far away.

I stayed not for sightseeing, but simply to unwind in the Room. The spacious, white-toned Room felt calm and relaxing; even with the lights dimmed for a greyish ambiance, it was still bright enough. I brought my Kindle and enjoyed reading with tea at a leisurely pace. It never felt cramped, there was nothing overly flashy or unnecessary, and nothing was lacking. Even down to each amenity, the concept feels thoroughly consistent. The large bath was also wonderful—overall, it was perfect for staying in the Room and truly relaxing. There was an issue with the hair dryer, but when I requested a replacement late at night, they responded immediately, which I really appreciated. The Jurlique basic skincare set is a nice touch for women. The loungewear is comfortable as well, and I felt you could pack extremely light without any trouble. Breakfast (Western-style) remains excellent as always, and I’m grateful it can be served in the Room. There are many Accommodations out there, but I’ll return when I want to get away from everyday noise and take things slow. Overall, I was extremely satisfied. Next time, I’m planning a Multiple Night Stay of doing absolutely nothing but relaxing indoors.

We stayed for five nights as a family. It was in a location that let us live like locals in Kyoto. There was a ramen and gyoza restaurant next door, a convenience store across the street, and a well-stocked supermarket within walking distance (with a 100-yen shop and fast-food restaurants as well). The Kyoto Imperial Palace and Nijo Castle were also within walking distance. We could easily go out for breakfast in different places, too. Even when we came back tired from sightseeing every day, we had fluffy beds, a spacious bathroom, strong shower pressure, and a large table in the living area. Because it was clearly separated from the bedroom, it was perfect for the kids to do their summer homework. Using the key card to take the elevator up felt great—when the door opened, it was already our own private floor/Room space.
