Nicely located hotel with great amenities and a historical touch/feel. Love how it immerses itself in a busy district but still has all the privacy.
The hospitality of the front desk could be improved but overall excellent.

The hotel is located close to the 3A exit of the Hankyu Train Station. Just walk north and cross the road then you would reach the hotel. Standard breakfast for this good price range and great for those who would like to stay a few days for travelling around Kyoto, Arashiyama and Uji areas. The room I chose was slightly bigger, around 23-25m2 and good for two people, but be prepared if you have two large cases of luggage then opening both together would be difficult, because the sink is located in the heart of the room and not to the side of one wall. Generally, a good choice for its price as compared to those around this hotel.

Centrally Located with a Few Drawbacks
Travel Lodge is located on a shopping street with plenty of places to eat nearby. It’s also within walking distance of Gion, making it a great base for exploring. The location offers easy access to both bus and metro lines, making transportation convenient, and it’s not a far walk to reach either option. They also provide luggage storage, which is helpful.
However, be aware that rooms are only cleaned every 4th day, so if you’re staying fewer than four nights (like we did), you won’t have a clean room and you’ll need to grab supplies and exchange towels at the main desk.
The hotel breakfast, served at a neighboring restaurant, was a bit of a letdown. It mainly consisted of bread and some oily sides, though the coffee and drink options were good. The room itself was typical for a Japanese hotel—compact, but clean, with a hot shower. Despite the small size, after a long day of walking, you’ll sleep fine!
Just keep in mind that check-in is at 3 PM, and check-out is at 10 AM, so plan accordingly!

MMeganChong2024.10.28
Excellently located, right in the city centre. Loved the little walk to the entrance of the hotel which was very inviting.
However, hotel has an environmental policy which means they don’t clean your room. Resulted in the room being dusty and we struggled to have a good nights sleep. But they had great service recovery and cleaned immediately the next day and all was well. Might not be ideal for everyone.
Would stay again.

Very good location, everything is nearby! A lot of restaurants around:)
The hotel provided a free evening cocktail at the rooftop bar, the view is epic!
However, the room is a bit small (as usual in Japan), and breakfast is the same every day, a bit disappointing. Apart from that, overall is good!

A stylish and beautifully designed hotel with a 5star all rounded service experience. Its location is perfect, a 5-8min walk to the train station with many key attractions and restaurants within walking distance. I tried the spa service which was very relaxing and the masseur got my back pain sorted which was much needed. I would definitely recommend anyone to stay at Good Nature Hotel when visiting Kyoto- it’s a great home away from home to come back to after a day of exploring Kyoto.

It’s near the subway station, walking distance. With 7-11 in front and Starbucks nearby. Nearby McDonalds also. Very clean room, good water pressure, good heater, with clean towels, BUT no drinking water provided. Good room size, we were 3 adults (family), with small table for coffee drinking, eating snacks. With 2 packets of green tea BUT no coffee.

Outstanding
LLi Ing Sheryl LeeWe like how the check in was done through an automated system which was easy to use. A staff is nearby to help if help is ever needed. The hotel also offer amenities in the lobby for guests to self-help which even include facial products like make-up remover and masks. The hotel room was clean and beds were comfortable. The pillows provided are of 2 intensities - hard and soft so that guests can choose to use whichever work for them. Sufficient space in the hotel room. The service staff are always smiling and pleasant to talk to. When I called the front desk to check if I could borrow their travel adaptor and I offered to go down to collect from them. The front desk helped to deliver it up to my room in less than 5min. I really appreciate their effort. All in all, this hotel is very efficient and we enjoyed our stay.
JJarl SolangeThe service at this hotel is famous: everyone seems happy to see you. The location is also very good, close to the station but not so close as to feel busy. But what I really liked was the breakfast, which I found exquisite. I definitely recommend this hotel.
JJ SCoin lockers, kettle, microwave on first floor, clean ladies bathroom, all provided with amenities including pajamas! Room was also only the width of the bed but provided with a small sit-down table, and a compartment under the bed big enough to fit my large luggage. Location was convenient - a 20min walk to main kyoto area but only 1min walk to metro station and great access to buses going to other areas of kyoto. Felt safe as a solo female traveller👍
Kkhazzie550The lobby was phenomenal!
Great decor, tastefully done !
Room was a little stuffy !!!
If you're driving, be aware it's hard to stop and unload as there is ONLY a main road in front of the hotel.
AAnonymous UserVery good location right beside kyoto station especially when arriving late at night. Good amenities and service at affordable prices. There’s even free washing machine and dryer but just have to bring your own detergent else there’s the option to purchase as well.
GGuest Userhave suttle buses from the kyoto station to the hotel. and I have to say the shuttle bus driver is so welcoming and cheerful.
also convenient to go to sightseeing places by bus( around 5min walk)
but no convenient stores nearby. the closest one will be about 10min walk
AAhmet ZekiDear Sir/Madam,
I recently had the opportunity to stay at your hotel, and I would like to share my experience with you. First and foremost, I want to express my gratitude for the exceptional design and comfort your property offers. Kengo Kuma’s architectural brilliance, with its use of natural wood, thoughtful lighting, and integration of art pieces, creates a stunning and serene atmosphere. Additionally, the comfort of the rooms, the quality of the materials, the size of the beds, and the premium linens were truly impressive. In terms of design and comfort, your hotel sets a remarkable standard.
However, I did encounter several service-related issues that I believe could be addressed to enhance the overall guest experience. I would like to share these points in the hope that they are helpful for future improvements:
1. Breakfast Lounge and Sushi Area: The proximity of these two areas creates a strong odor upon entering, which can be unpleasant. Improved ventilation could easily mitigate this issue.
2. Food and Beverage Service After Breakfast: The lack of food and beverage service after breakfast hours was inconvenient. At the very least, providing a space for guests to enjoy tea or coffee would be a welcome addition.
3. Room Service Availability: After a long journey, I was surprised to learn that room service was unavailable and that only rice balls could be provided. Expanding room service options would greatly improve the guest experience.
4. Flexibility with Breakfast Hours: Due to the time difference, I arrived slightly late for breakfast at 10:10 AM and was informed that nothing could be served. Even my request for tea did not receive a clear response. Greater flexibility in accommodating guests dealing with jet lag would be highly appreciated.
5. Lobby Services: The inability to offer anything to drink or even host a guest in the lobby felt restrictive. This could be improved to make the lobby a more welcoming space.
6. Spa Experience: I was unable to experience the renowned Banyan Tree spa as it was fully booked. Expanding spa reservation availability would help meet guest expectations for this signature offering.
In summary, while the hotel excels in design and comfort, the service offerings seem to be constrained by rigid rules and limited hours, which can detract from the overall guest experience. I strongly believe that adopting a more flexible, guest-centered approach would significantly enhance satisfaction.
If the above issues were addressed, I would certainly consider staying at your hotel again during my next visit to Kyoto. Once again, I want to thank you for the exceptional design and comfort provided during my stay and hope that these suggestions contribute to further elevating your standards.
Best regards, next visit to Kyoto. Once again, I want to thank you for the exceptional design and comfort provided during my stay and hope that these suggestions contribute to further elevating your standards.
Best regards,
GGuest UserThis hotel has wonderful costumer services and the employees speak many languages. Right up the street there is a 7/11 store for all your snack run, there are cafe and restaurant within walking distance. The Karasuma-Oike station is literally 3-5 minutes walk. The best part is the traveler’s store that is about a 10 min walk. I been wanting to go there and finally got to visit it. This store has stationary items such as notebooks that can have you record your journey.
YYI HUEYThe accommodation experience in the townhouse is really authentic. The house is beautiful and very comfortable as soon as you enter the house. No matter how you take photos there, it is very interesting. We were very satisfied with the food at the hotel because we have family members who don’t eat beef. Although the hotel couldn’t do it at first, they were willing to communicate and let us choose different foods. Thank you very much!
GGuest UserGood location and modern. 7-11 store is linked to the hotel lobby and there is security as hotel guests have to tap the room card to exit 7-11 to enter the lobby. Easy check-in as there are many staff at the check-in counters. Checking-out is a breeze as guests are able to do it by yourself at the machines. Will definitely return when in Kyoto :)
