Sanco Inn Kyoto Hachijo-guchi <Miyabi> ~Shiki no Yu~

I stayed here last year and had a great experience, so this was my second visit—and I was very satisfied!First of all, all the front desk staff were very kind. The pillow bar was also much appreciated. This time I noticed that the large public bath has three types of showerheads to choose from, which was fun. The bed mattress was very comfortable as well, but the sound from the air conditioning or possibly the bathroom ventilation fan? was a bit loud and bothered me during the night.Shower caps were only available in the large public bath, but I wanted to use one for showering or washing my face in my Room too, so I wish they were available at the amenities bar. However, when I asked at check-in this time, a kind front desk staff member brought me one.Breakfast is always plentiful as well. I enjoyed various kinds of tempura and takikomi gohan even in the morning.It’s right in front of Kyoto Station, but since it’s a small Hotel, there aren’t any noisy tour groups, which is a relief.The next day I stayed at a certain Resort Hotel in Osaka (priced at 2.5 times this one), but in terms of amenities and provided shampoo and other toiletries, this Hotel was actually better. If you’re not looking for on-site restaurants, a spa, or a gym and just want Accommodation with good value for money, I think this place is excellent.

This was my first time staying here. Located right in front of the station, I expected it to be small, but despite the size, it was clean and comfortable. The large bath was relaxing and refreshing. The amenities were well-stocked, and I appreciated the pillow rental service. The drink service was also excellent, allowing me to unwind with ease. I would love to stay here again next time!
