Tokyu Stay Kyoto Sanjo-Karasuma

Hotel is located near the subway and bus stop. Thus, making travel to places of interest easy. There’s also shopping and food within walking distance from the hotel. Breakfast is not bad considering the price point. Slight variations for breakfast are made daily too.

Horrible experience at the hotel. besides the bed and frequently used areas, I can see dust on the walls and corners of the room. The 6 nights no cleaning policy is horrible. The only benefit you get is the washing machine. Bathroom has the old mouldy smell. They assigned my room to another person because I checked in late and I got a shocked when I opened the door that there were belongings inside. The staff were running to me to change the keycard. As it was cold there’s only heat function, I had to open the window for cold air. Price is reasonable for such standards but I wouldn’t recommend if you can’t stand too much dust left over by the past tenants.

Great location near subway (2 lines) and only 3 stops from Kyoto station. The view was nice from the 7th floor. Washing machine in the room is a plus. There even is some kind of trousers press in the room. Unfortunately there was no free bed linens change during my 6 day stay. I had to pay for one (not very expensive though). Also the breakfast could be better.
