The OneFive Kyoto Shijo

This hotel was placed at a very comfortable position and the room was very spacious and clean.

Location a bit far need to take a bus to go to the main area but quiet

Lovely hotel, excellent location with a 7-11 downstairs and 2xFamily Marts nearby within walking distance. A Sukiya (local chain of fast Japanese food restaurants) was opposite the hotel serving cheap eats but lovely, delicious and filling bowls of rice with meat/eel toppings. You can have food delivered to the hotel and there is a dining area with a microwave to eat in and heat up shop bought food. Coin operated laundry facilities are on-site but there are only 2 washing machines and dryer available (laundry detergent automatically added). Bus stops to Kyoto station and to other attractions/local sights are within minutes walk from hotel. Bus 9 and 50 take you directly from the station to the door of the hotel. (¥230 single trip). The hotel had an efficient system of checking in with a QR code, staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, the hotel was clean and the rooms were quite large for Japan’s standard. The shower and toilet were amazing! Coffee and tea/hot water were provided all day, umbrellas are lent out to you for rainy days, the front desk had unlimited supply of amenities for you to take away (toothbrush/shower caps/face cream etc) and lots of freshly laundered night shirts to wear! Happy to store your bags at check out to finish exploring the city! One (very mild) down side is that the beds are the size of either a slightly large(er) single bed or a small(er) double bed, so twin rooms sleeping 4 may be slightly difficult but for families with smaller children, it was fine. Overall, a wonderful stay and would be very happy to come again.
