We had a fantastic 4-night stay at this hotel. We would highly recommend this location and will come back again if we travel to Kyoto in the future. The room itself was clean and spacious, with a mix of traditional and modern design. The bed was comfortable, and all the small amenities such as slippers and robes were high quality. The staff was very friendly and made the whole process seamless. The location of the hotel is great since it's in a quiet area but only one stop away from Kyoto station. There's also a family mart a few minutes walk away.

Great hotel. No complains at all, wish I stayed longer. They had free wine, beer and snack. Rooms are big, very spacious (compared to others I stayed at in Japan) The breakfast buffet it was ok (not my preferred food for breakfast) but convenient. The little cafe in the lobby has great sandwiches. Everyone is so nice, but I found that everyone in Japan is. Beautiful country!

Umekoji Potel is a great property for those who want an open environment while staying in Japan. Our room size was comparable to most Western hotels and the balcony overlooking Umekoji Park made time in the hotel a treat. Tge park is a wonderful outdoor space, with many activities and events , used by local residentsvand visitors. The many unique common areas(coffee, evening drinks, music, rooftop deck, etc.) were great amenities to complement our stay. The close proximity to Umekoji Krotonishi station was a plus for midday and off hour train access(as it is the last station before arriving at Kyoto Station, however rush hour inbound trains are stereotypically packed with commuters. We will definitely return on a future visit.

This hotel was amazing. It was clean and modern. The restaurant was great as were the staff. Couple things to be aware of. Lots of kids which isn’t a bad thing but noise travels really easily in the hotel. You can hear everything. The second is the proximity to the train. While it appears close to the Kyoto station it can be a pain as the station closest is a local station and doesn’t come very frequently. All that said I’d still stay here
