Yes I agree! This is a good hotel with all expected facilities and close to transport, convenience stores, coffee shops and restaurants. Koyto is worth a second visit (a better base than Tokyo) and I would definitely select the Monterey. More

We are currently staying here for four nights. The hotel is central, and within easy access of the subway, just a few stops from Kyoto station. This morning we had breakfast at the hotel. I have never had such indelible food. It was, hands down, the worst breakfast I have ever tried to eat. (Disclaimer: we were eating the western... More

I will never stay anywhere else if and when I am in Kyoto. The Location: You are right in the middle of a big city and just a block away from a subway station ... so you are within easy distance of whatever you want to see. There are two Starbucks and 2 other coffee shops within 2 blocks of... More

Good location near the center of Kyoto with good access (mainly by bus) to major temples and parks. Rooms are nice but small and rates are sort of high for such rooms. Would go again only if I can get a good deal. More

We booked through the internet and not being very familiar with Kyoto, my husband and I weren't too sure of the location. We were pleasantly surprised when we got there. It is within walking distance from Sijo Dori (one of the main shopping street) and just 2 streets away there is this small road leading directly to the NIshiki Market.... More

We stayed 5 nights here in May 2012 and had a great time. The location is one block south of the metro station that services BOTH Kyoto subway lines, making it easy to get to from the train station and easy to get around the city. We arrived a day early (at 10:30pm) and the wonderful staff found a room... More

This Hotel is really nice and well kept, it is located in downtown Kyoto and is conveniently close to metro and JR stations as well as bus stops which are one of the best ways to move around Kyoto so you can get almost anywhere pretty easy which makes it a great base to get to know Kyoto and it...

We stayed here 5 nights in the middle of sakura. The hotel is on a major street which makes it easy to find and it was surprisingly quiet. There were at least 3 convenience stores in walking distance and a grocery open 24 hours! A walk to Ginza was a bit long, but the Nishi and Teramachi markets were close.... More

This is the perfect hotel to position yourself in Kyoto. It's walking distance to the main road that takes you into the Gion district (Only about a 15 minute walk). There is also a main subway station across the road for easy access to many of the temples Kyoto has to offer. There's lots of great eateries in this area... More

Hotel was beautiful, very comfortable, staff knew decent English and was very helpful. Close to many sights and good restaurants. Make sure to check out wedding chapel near lobby. What is really special is the onsen spa on the top floor. It has massage service, several baths, steam and gorgeous views of Kyoto from an outside bath. More
