Expert reviews:

DK Eyewitness

"Centrally located, the hotel is close to the shopping district of Shijo-Kawaramachi, but still has pretty views of the mountains beyond the city from many of the bedroom windows."

Time Out

"It can boast of being the tallest in the area, with 17 floors, but the best reason to stay is the location, above a subway station in the Down-town district." Full review

Star Service

"Across from the Kyoto City Office, this hotel is 3.5 kilometers north of Kyoto Station and has basement-level access to the Kyoto-Shiyakusho-mae subway station." Full review

Corner Deluxe rooms are the most popular requests from repeat guests as they are larger and have dual views.
