Bored with standard, small, bland and inspired by business hotels around Kyoto-Eki, I splashed out a wee bit for a night at the Dormy Inn. Extremely well worth it. Lovely decor throughout the hotel... modern japanese design. The twin room was a bit of a weird layout; walk in to an entrance area with hanging/ closet space; bathroom vanity; then... More

Great location near Kyoto Station. Room had small sleeping/sitting area, more spacious bathroom with excellent shower, but sleeping area size not unusual for Japan. Terrific breakfast buffet included in our rate which helped offset the price. Very nice rooftop onsen. Staff friendly, most with very limited command of English. During 6 days, I did not see another non-Asian, which I... More

I have stayed at a couple of Dormy Inns now, and I love the concept. These are classy business hotels that offer a great value (I paid $100/night in June, the high season!) and have rooms that are bright, clean, and very well thought out in terms of the usage of space. I stayed in the Kyoto Dormy Inn for... More

Compact but Lovely rooms. Hot spring baths were just the ticket to combat jet lag, really nice set up in communal baths. Breakfast was extra for us, pricey but really good quality & great choice. 5 min walk from train station is great location. Great modern, spotless hotel - excellent choice for Kyoto. More

We decided on Kyoto as our first ever annual family winter vacation spot. As we didn't have any definite plans, we randomly chose Dormy Inn as our choice of hotels when we arrived in Kyoto. Getting a reservation at 4pm, proved to be a breeze with the receptionist, giving us (2 adults, 1 child) a decent sized room w/breakfast plan... More

I've stayed @ other fancy onsen hotels from this chain ex. Hakone Setsugetsuka resort before but this is my first for Dormy Inn. It's a new business hotel located within 5 minutes walk from Kyoto station. Price is regular around US$150 per night. Check-in quick and efficient. Staff's English adequate as she tries to explain onsen and breakfast info. Room... More

I've stayed at the Dormy Inn Kyoto-Eki-Mae for a total of three times. As a resident of Japan, that's pretty high praise. Two out of three times I've booked ahead, but I've also had good experiences as a walk-in customer. The hotel isn't anywhere close to downtown, though it's within walking distance for people who like walking. However, its proximity... More

I've stayed at other Dormy hotels,and I found this one to be exactly what I expected except that it had a little nicer appointments in the room and it had some nice extras such as a massage room. I found the room to be exactly what I knew it would be, fairly small, but this one has much nicer furniture... More

Newly opened. Location good. Practical but with great ambiance. Breakfast and hot spring a bonus. Positively surprised for what you pay for. Would even recommend to someone who is willing to stay in 4-5 star hotel. More
