The Hedistar Hotel Kyoto Nijo Comic&Books

Excellent hotel. The service and environment are welcoming and quiet. Rooms are comfortable and very clean. There is a great ramen store close to the hotel and a big 24h Lawson store next to it. It is also next to a bus stop. I loved the breakfast presentation and the manga library.

The hotel was very nice in general with all the basic amenities a 3 star hotel has. The room was generally clean and functional, although small. There was some strands of hair in the bathtub so cleanliness can be improved. Loved the manga collection, although I can't speak Japanese and the English selection was only around 10 manga.

I had a great stay at this hotel, especially as a manga fan. The room was clean, and I received fresh towels every day. Amenities such as toiletries could be picked up from the reception area, which was very convenient. The hotel also provides complimentary drinks 24/7, including water, coffee, and tea. There is a bus stop directly in front of the hotel with buses that go straight to Kyoto Station, and the nearest subway station is about a 10-minute walk away. The famous Nishiki Market is around a 20-25 minute walk from the hotel, and there are plenty of restaurants nearby. There is also a convenience store right next to the hotel and a supermarket within a short walking distance, making it very easy to grab snacks, drinks, or anything else you might need. Popular attractions such as Nijō Castle and Kyoto Imperial Palace are also within walking distance. Overall, I had a very pleasant stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Kyoto.

The room was really nice and surprisingly spacious for one person. It was one of the largest rooms I’ve stayed in during my trips to Japan. Everything was clean, and the location was very convenient—close to the train station and convenience stores. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the room was cleaned every day. Overall, I had a very comfortable stay and would definitely recommend it.

I had booked a corner room and the view was great, contact the hotel in advance to request a great view and high floor. Overall the hotel was great, the only thing lacking was the location, typical with Kyoto the modern part of the city is quite spread out so long walks are needed. There is a subway stop 8 mins walk from the hotel as well as a bus stop near by. But in the general area there is not a lot.
