Nice and quiet stay in Kyoto
M‘s Inn Omiya Kuromon is definitely a recommendable place to stay in Kyoto. It is located in a very quiet neighboorhood, so it will be hard to find open restaurants at night. Very convenient is the free shuttle bus from the M’s Information Center just outside the Kyoto Main Train Station. You can also keep your luggage there or let it send to your hotel but check the timetables before. The staff at the information center was unfortunately super rude and impolite which provided a very bad first impression to us. However, the staff at our hotel was always nice and helpful. Our transportation hub for trains and all buses was the Omiya station which is a 600 meter walk away. It is quite a pain to walk this distance several times. There is another M‘s Inn closer to the station, we would look for a room there next time. However, the station is good because you have direct access to the train to the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and it is just 2 stations to Karawamachi with many restaurants and access to the Gion area. Our room was small but thats normal in Japan. It was located at the end of the floor so the internet connection was a bit slow which is the only minus. They clean the room just every 3 days which is okay since they change the towels every day if you like. Laundry is for free which is a big plus. However, the dryer needs very much time, so only use this for small laundry. We stayed 5 nights here and slept well. We can definitely recommend this hotel.

The location was great as we were off the beaten track and had a good insight into more local Kyoto rather than the key tourist areas. The hotel itself was great but the staff weren’t very personable. The advertised ‘staffed desk’ is probably an overeach as we had to check in and out through an iPad. The room and amenities were very good

This property is a block away from a local market and super markets, massage, hair salon, etc. From time to time they have a front desk representative, but most likely there will be no one there. You must access via a pass code to main entrance and your room. Laundry service was a plus!

Our experience was completely different to the reviews on here saying that the check-in procedure was difficult. It couldn't have been any easier for us. So clever and streamlined. The property was fantastic and located in a really nice part of Kyoto. A special mention goes to Brulee Kyoto just around the corner in Sanjo Dori for the best donuts going around! Also, the staff -especially Kae - at the central reception near Kyoto Station were super helpful, going above and beyond to help us with booking onwards ticket. Highly recommended!

Great little place to stay a few days
Not your typical hotel as servicing of rooms would only have been the once in three days so for many I'd assume it would be just prior to checking in. That said, the room was tidy and marginally larger than some, but only marginally. There isn't the usual hotel reception but a young woman who let's you in and provides you with the key code for the building and another for the room. She's there to answer any questions should you need any assistance. Checkout is an electronic tablet on the desk when there's no one there which was the case for us. But back to the beginning, Grand Jappening have an office opposite Kyoto station where you can leave your bags prior to getting a lift to your hotel. You can also leave your bags for free at the end of your stay off you intend to do anything before leaving Kyoto. The bus drops you off a short distance and you're then given directions by the driver to the hotel. The hotel is in a lovely area near to a covered walkway but watch out for the many cyclists who never use their bells to warn you of their presence. Nijo station is a short walk away as are many shops and cafes/restaurants. Nijo Castle is nearby. The bed is the most comfortable I've slept in in a long time but the walls are thin. It sounded as if the neighbour was moving furniture late at night until someone else banged on their door. Get earplugs and you'd be fine. And the laundry is free

房間整潔乾淨, 附近是住宅區, 所以唔會太嘈. 行1分鐘就到三条通, 有超市小店, 行7-10分鐘有巴士站, 地鐵站到其他景點. 雖然夜晚夠靜, 但小心點行大街到酒店問題不大
