Ξενοδοχεία κοντά σε Todaiji Sanchome Park σε Shimamoto

Everything was fine until the end. In comparison to other hotels I stayed at throughout my trip, this one is cleaner and more spacious. It's close to Tokyo Station, so it's easy to get to other areas, even if it took me quite a while to figure out their operation and routes. The hotel will be cleaned one time every three days. So, generally, it will not be cleaned throughout your stay. However, you can request that they change the towels every day. The check-in and check-out processes were straightforward, however the machine did not accept my Visa card - this is the only site in Japan that did. The hotel also helped you store your belongings before and after check-in/out. However, I was discriminated against by one of the hotel's employees when sending the luggage after checkout. Before me, he stayed near the check-in/checkout machine, assisting a Japanese couple with the checkout procedures and handling the bags. So I waited, thinking he also approached me to assist. However, after assisting the couples, he did not approach me and came back to the counter. Then I beckoned him to his assistance. Instead, he hailed me with his fingertips to come over his counter, rather say anything like “Please come over the counter to do the procedure”. It shocked me. Furthermore, the way he handled my luggage request was really unpleasant. When I asked for his name because I didn't see it on his tag, he became more agitated. So that is why I requested him to write his name on the receipt card. How is it possible for him to treat people so differently? Should Japanese people be treated more respectfully under the hotel's policy? After my interaction with him, all of my positive feelings about the hotel vanished.

Staff Are very attentive and quick, they are able to assist you in English too if you can't communicate in Japanese. Transport is easy as it is located about 10-15 minutes away from Kyoto Station which has Shinkansen/JR trains/bus available. Given a cozy room with various options of daily cleaning (none/basic/partial/full) main difference being if you want the bathtub to be washed / bed to be made, so you can hang it by your door to notify the crew accordingly.

It was unmanned check-in and was satisfied except that I didn't know the password at the time of entry. I forgot the key of the bicycle on the round line, but I was able to leave it in the entrance and was saved. It was a night stay, but the station and convenience store are close, and the room and shower room are clean. I also want to repeat if I have a chance.

It was a sudden night reservation on the day, but thank you for your pleasant response. We had to stay suddenly and didn't know where to go, so it was really encouraging to be kind. At night, I was able to rest my body slowly and was saved. I was able to have breakfast slowly, so I am grateful that I was able to go to work without fluttering the next day's work, and that the day was pleasantly welcomed. Thank you very much.

is it a comment when it was just done? It seems to be dry, but it is a kind, polite and satisfying hotel. The facilities are substantial and the large communal bath is nice. Please note that the bathhouse is changed every day for men and women. Amenity is fully equipped. , Sleeping scrolls that can be used as roomwear are also available in the room, so you can relax. It is a convenient place because it is near the station and has a good location and many restaurants. There is also a large communal bath, so I wonder if it's a great place to relax. The breakfast venue is not big, so you need to adjust the time, but I'm happy to make omelets handmade at the venue.

Nestled in the heart of Kyoto station, Ala Hotel Kyoto offers a serene oasis amidst the bustling cityscape, with easy access to myriad tourist attractions and culinary delights. Situated along a vibrant street adorned with delectable beef restaurants and adjacent to a 24-hour drug store boasting competitive prices on cosmetics and medications, the hotel's location promises both convenience and immersion in local culture. A relatively new establishment, Ala Hotel Kyoto boasts one of the finest outdoor onsens I've encountered on my travels. Perched on the 10th floor, the onsen is accompanied by a tranquil zen lounge, ideal for unwinding post-soak or awaiting laundry completion. Though laundry services are complimentary, guests should note that detergent is not provided. While complimentary snacks were notably absent, the expansive onsen facilities and serene ambiance compensated for the oversight. However, it's worth mentioning that the onsen's operating hours are relatively limited, closing at 11 pm nightly, with only two hair dryers available. Upon entering the room, I was pleasantly surprised by its spaciousness—ample enough to accommodate three luggage pieces comfortably. The highlight, undoubtedly, was the bathtub affording breathtaking views of the hotel's surroundings, perfect for soaking in the beauty of sunrise or sunset. Complete with access to YouTube and Netflix, the room provided ample entertainment options. For a delightful treat, indulge in soft-serve ice cream from the cafe adjacent to the hotel—an ideal conclusion to a day of exploration. The bed exuded comfort, while the addition of a sofa near the entrance provided a convenient spot to unwind without soiling the bedding with outdoor attire. Overall, while Ala Hotel Kyoto may lack certain amenities, its spacious accommodations, strategic location, and reasonable pricing make it a standout choice for travelers seeking tranquility and convenience in equal measure.

The location is conveniently connected in all directions. It is quiet and bustling, close to high-end shops. It is only a 5-minute walk from the subway station. The room management is comfortable. #Waka Kyoto Kawaramachi Hotel #鴨川 #八坂神社⛩️#五条

It is good that there is an open-air bath, the room is large, and the view outside is good from the large window. However, the amount is high. Even in this time of Corona, it's a bit unthinkable to spend close to 10,000 yen. However, staying in such a room is quite relaxing and feels good. It's great that you can come right after getting off Kishibe Station without getting wet in the rain. It is also good that there is a convenience store in the hotel building. I thought the convenience store was on the first floor, but it was actually on the second floor. If you walk down the passage from the station without going down to the ground, there is a convenience store and there is an elevator next to it, which will take you to the front desk of the hotel. The only problem is the table. The table where you put your PC and work is small. I can't work indoors. Although it is a PR point that there is an open-air bath on the roof, you can not see the outside scenery. All the outside is covered with walls, and you can only see the sky. It's nice to take a bath outside, but it's a pity that you can't see outside.

Strategic location besides Karasuma Oike station and 5mins walk to Karasuma station if you need to take the Hankyu line. Quaint area with nearby 7-11 for your snack runs and Starbucks on the main road. Good security too with hotel card access. Note that there is a main and annex building (2 buildings for different rooms selection).

I and my mother stayed there for one night 20000 yen per person, with dinner and breakfast. It was a very comfortable stay. This was more like a hotel, except that we needed to walk around without your own shoes (without getting dirty feet) inside. It was fully booked on that day. We had an earlier check-in, which mean that we could enjoy our relaxing private Onsen bath without standing in line. We also tried the large onsen baths later in the evening after a long walk in the beautiful Arashiyama area nearby. It was hot, but great. One of the baths was outside in a Japanese garden. We got warmed up from the inside out, and had an ice popsicle before we went up to our room for good nights rest. We also enjoyed a huge dinner and breakfast, true local cuisine with typical taste in Kyoto that supposed to be refined and ”delicate” - you shouldn´t expect any strong taste, and correctly cooked. This supposed to be a 3-star-hotel, but the amenity was completed. We didn´t miss anything here. We thought the staff at the front desk were not amazing, but definitely not poor. We didn´t need to deal with them so much as we had good information in written form. Everything was clean and pleasant. Had absolutely nothing to complain. We would definitely love to come back again. My rating is 4 - not more or less. I certainly see that they still have a room for improvement, but overall I didn´t personally understand all the poor reviews.
