KANSEI KYOTOHACHIJO

Stay in this hotel for 3nights on my first Japan trip, everything was good. Location is good, not too far from the Kyoto station and the room is clean. I'll definitely come back again if travel to Kyoto next time.

Great venue, clean and accommodating with very friendly, welcoming and respectful staff. Couple of local bars to finish off the day 🍻

Since we spent most of our day traveling, we were only at the hotel to sleep in the evenings. The staff were friendly and very helpful. The room was small but enough to sleep, shower and watch some TV, and it was clean and tidy. We were pleased to stay at Kansei, thank you to the entire team.

The hotel is 10 - 13 mns walk from the end of Kyoto station. Though it doesn't sound a lot, to navigate through Kyoto station is quite something, then add 13 mns of walk. We arrived on a rainy day, so that didn't help at all. To travel to diff places in Kyoto, there is no bus or nearby subway, everything is Kyoto station as hub. There's nothing much around the hotel except a 7/11. The room is comfy but very small, especially the washroom. It lacked space to hang clothes and towels, plus that faucet system is spraying water everywhere. The plus side is the water pressure (shower) is excellent! And there's a washing machine on site. The reception kept our luggage, checkin at 3, there r umbrella to borrow. Tea (various types from Irish cream to Darjeeling) and ironically lacking green tea. They provide 2 drip coffee, but no cream and sugar (even at reception), so black it is. The diffuser is a gimmick but it did nothing. They give out a gift basket if you give review on Google... I find they r trying to make it nice with the diffuser, flavored teas to enhance the stay experience, but small details like a warmer smile will be appreciated, plus green tea, creamer... a lot of details are lacking and still to be improved.
