2-Star Hotels in Kyoto

Checked in but was given a bed that was already taken, however they rectified it quickly and switched me to a female dorm instead of my previously booked mixed- dorm. Showers are clean and there is a common kitchen area on 2nd floor and lounge area on 1st floor. The location is near bus stops which can get you to the train station. The bunks are quite spacious with an area to place your baggage as well. Great for solo travellers. Do note that there is a ¥200 fee per night that you will need to pay upon check in.

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.

It feels very warm, the facilities are perfect, everything is complete, the breakfast is a bit monotonous, but the free one is also very good ~ the most important thing is that it is fully equipped and clean

Fabulous location, close to the main station. Easy to find, and lots inclusions in a bargain price. Lovely outdoor terraces on the ground floor (smokers) and 3rd floor. Washing machines and dryers on site, with the bonus that you don't need to provide your own detergent, at a VERY reasonable price. Immaculately clean, friendly staff who aren't afraid to speak English, and the rooms are very well-appointed. I stayed in a 4 bed dorm, which was comfortable, spacious and there is even an option to choose your own pillow, so that you can be extra comfy.

・Near the bus stop. There are also two convenience stores nearby.・You can stay in an old folk house. My parents' house is almost the same age as this house, so I was immersed in a nostalgic feeling.・Tourist information is posted in various places, so it's fun to take a look. I participated in the morning service of Nishi Honganji because it was recommended.・You can stay without meeting the staff. I stayed overnight without seeing anyone.・There was a kotatsu in the private room. It helped that my legs were cold.・There was a sanitary box in the dressing room. ・I was surprised when I received a phone call from my cell phone number. I'm very cautious, so I try not to answer suspicious phone numbers, so I'm surprised when I get a sudden call... Also, the staff who called me spoke too fast. I asked him to speak slowly, but it didn't work. I could barely hear ”Haruya”. I don't really know what you're talking about, so please calm down and speak slowly. I can't tell you anything.・When I heard that they were making rice porridge in the morning and went to see it, it was empty. I probably didn't do it because the pot was dry. It may not be done in this day and age, but if not, I would like an explanation.・There was a water tank, but it was empty. I wanted to drink water to take medicine. I can't judge whether it's not done in this day and age or I forgot to water. There were white streaks on the tank. Did you wash it?・Rent out the bath, fill it with hot water, and when you soak in the bath, you will be surprised to see the toothpaste float to the surface! You didn't clean it after the last time you used it. Please clean it... the charter fee was wasted...・The dressing room is very cold. It's an old private house, so the cold came directly. I want a simple heater. It was interesting and fun to make the room, but I felt that there were many problems in the details.

A Japanese-style hotel with a history of more than 100 years, experience it, the price is not expensive-. It takes only a few minutes to walk to the store from the railway station and the bus terminal. The transportation is convenient. The store does not provide early morning breakfast. There is free coffee in the morning, but it is so-so. There are many restaurants nearby to eat and buy.

We stayed in the family suite. There were 2 beds and 3 floor mats. The beds were comfortable but the floor mats were so thin it was impossible to sleep comfortably as an adult. The room itself was very clean and had a really nice bathroom. However do not leave anything of any value in the room while you are away. We had something that was charging stolen from our room while we were out one day. We immediately noticed upon our return and alerted management. They assured us we would be compensated if they could not be found. That never happened and once we left the country, they completely changed their tone and refused to do anything. There is not a safe in the room so just take it all with you!

A very, very perfect accommodation experience. It is definitely the most comfortable and warm B&B I have ever stayed in. The accommodation environment is clean and immaculate, full of Japanese style, full of experience, and the service is considerate and warm. The boss and his wife are really nice! They helped us selflessly and enthusiastically time and time again. I am really grateful and touched. Unfortunately, the score is only five points, otherwise I really want to give it 100 points! Although the trip is short, the memories are long-lasting. Because I have never lived in Kyoto, I want to come back to Kyoto countless times ~

Very good, recommended stay. I am the first time to travel abroad, and I am a self-help tour. I saw some tactics on the Internet that Japan’s accommodation is not very good and expensive. I am very worried because I used to live four or more times outside, worrying about poor hygiene and sound insulation. So I started to struggle with Booking for a long time. Later, when I went to Ctrip, I was actually a Chinese and a website (I don’t know if BK is). In this way, I choose the economy and the highest score. But many of the economy are a few people, can't accept it... so I found this one. Seriously, I wrote a bed on the Internet. I thought it was a bed with someone else. The photos taken online are not very good. Finally tangled for three hours, decided to live here... I am grateful to have chosen Ctrip, and after completing the order, Ctrip sent a very detailed check-in introduction to my mailbox. Haha, I watched the tactics of the three days on the Internet. Ctrip gave me an email. Very detailed, including everything on the outside, emergency calls, nearby attractions and more. Then, I received a notice from WeChat customer service, and I immediately added it. Thank you very much, micro-customer service is very professional, you can ask them anything, not the kind of customer service that does not answer. Including asking how to buy a transportation card, where to buy things and so on. Ok, I got off the plane on the 8th, bought the ICOCA card and bought a ticket to Kyoto Station to go to Kyoto. The house is really convenient, out of Kyoto Station, less than 1 km, followed by google maps map two streets and then into the alley about a hundred meters or so. Holding the luggage and looking at the navigation, I walked for about ten minutes. Oh, the homestay is very good, the photos on the internet are bad. The boss is very warm and kind, speaks English, fills in the check-in information, and after paying another fee of 200 yen, the boss helps the suitcase to go upstairs. The room was very good, clean, went in the treadmill room, and then went into the room, oh, said a person living, it should be said that the bed is one meter wide, not very small, very clean and satisfied. Put down the luggage and take a nap for a while, at 18 o'clock, go out to find food. When I came out that street, I ate a lot of food. I saw a colorful Kyoto tower, but one person could not go to the restaurant, and then headed toward the Kyoto Tower. I saw a large supermarket or department store, several floors, and some food, and across the street. It is a restaurant and a cafe. Oh, I can buy something here.... I can only go back to the hotel at 9 o'clock. The alley is a bit quiet, but it is not terrible. Occasionally, someone will pass by and keep a distance of one meter. But it is best to have a companion together. It is very quiet at night. In fact, the Japanese homestay is a wooden structure, not soundproof, but it is still very quiet, because everyone also respects the rules and does not affect the taste of others. Check out in the morning, store your luggage in the store, then set off for the attraction. Very regretted to book only one night. There is a temple in the seven-minute journey. It is very big. I don’t understand Japanese. I don’t know what the temple is. After I enter the countdown, I see that I am a scorpion. There are few people, but the temple is very big. It is the biggest one I went to. of. Just in the other direction of the Kyoto Tower. Originally, it was a bus stop, but it did not reach the red spot of the net. It was only possible to go to the bus stop. After coming out of the temple, I saw that there was still two kilometers away from Daqing Temple and Gion. This is not as good for me as I walked, so I am looking forward to following the navigation. Very supportive to go over, see other people's housing and ceramic street along the way, there are many places to take pictures. It took about half an hour to stop and go to Kiyomizu-dera (forgot whether it was this name). Next to it is the only garden, the second year of Hansaka, and so on. I finally went out to see the path, probably played for four hours at these attractions, bought a lot of things... When I came out, I went home and went home. In fact, there is a bus directly to the hotel in the park, but I don’t want to go back. It’s 30 minutes to walk. I have chosen to walk a few times. Oh, go back and pick up your luggage, then go to the next stop in Osaka. Really, Kyoto is better than Osaka, and there are not so many people shopping. It is recommended to play for two days.

There was no xymi in a firm thick wooden bed, and the mattress was moderately soft and comfortable and had a good sleep time. In addition, the bottom of the mattress is tatami mats, and there is a cushion, so the hardness of the plate is not felt at all, and the size is about two tatami mats, and the cozy of the room is also the best. Gion kobashi and Yahanshin Sha shrine were also very close, and there were many restaurants and restaurants. The neighborhood is located in a quiet street in the old art town, so it is quiet and calm when you use the lounge or go to bed at midnight. The lounge also has tatami space, so you can really relax like you are in the inn. Towels and bath towels are also available for free, and amenities are also available in Shiseido, and if you have a real change of underwear, you can stay hanging. The location was good, so it was perfect for Kyoto sightseeing base.
