Susan, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The room was fine but the bathroom tub had some sort of black (mold?) substance around the edges. It was rather unsightly.
Robert, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My wife, our 1-year-8-month-old, and I stayed at Tokyu Stay Kyoto from October 4th to 6th. I had heard great things about this hotel, and they absolutely lived up to the reputation. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable about the area, even giving us a great ramen recommendation. We also enjoyed the sake offered in the lobby, we’re not usually sake drinkers, so it was fun to try something new and find one we really liked. We’ll definitely stay here again when we return to Kyoto. Thank you!
William, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a really small hotel, but in a great location ,close to the metro, Starbucks, convenience stores, and more. Even though it’s small, it has everything you need for your trip. The room was perfect for me and my partner. They offered free amenities like coffee, sodas, razors, toothbrushes, a hair comb, and more. The coffee isn’t the best, but it’s free, so no complaints! Overall, it’s a nice, affordable place. I’d definitely stay here again if I come back to Kyoto.
