Trip Type: Family Review 1 of 3Satisfactory Hotel for visits to Kyoto
The hotel is good--very much like a standard business hotel. The staff is very friendly. The location is near the activities center of Kyoto--near Karasuma and Shijo "dori" (streets), about a third of a mile west of Karawamachi (sp?)--the epicencter of night-time activities in Kyoto--with lots of restaurants. There is upscale shopping on Shijo between Karasuma and Karawamachi streets. The hotel is adjacent to the N-S subway line Shijo station and not too far from bus stops on Shijo. (Note, there are a lot of busses on Shijo including several going to major tourist sites such as the Golden Pavilion and the Silver Pavilion--but the stops for various busses are not all in the same location, so one needs to scout out where a particular bus stops. Further, the stops can be more than a block from the listed intersection--e.g, both east and west of Karasuma.)

Trip Type: Family Review 3 of 3Good location
A good location within walking distance of the main shopping district, on the subway, and not far from the train station. Hardly traditional, but nicer than expected, and a lot more convenient than the quiet traditional ryokan we stayed in last year.
