Great hotel
Very nice hotel, extremely clean with nice services as free coffee area and drinks.
Rooms are spacious and the service is great.
Location might not be the best for some guests, as it’s a bit far from certain attractions.

Best stay ever
This place is my new favorite. Easily located just west of Kyoto station super easy to get to just one stop on the JR line 150yen and get to all the attractions around town! They have a brew your own coffee room and drinks and snacks in the evening the rooms are spacious and even a balcony over looking the park, quiet and peaceful. There is a coffee shop, family mart and Starbucks neer by plus local places of refreshment. Easy ten minute walk to Toji temple don’t miss the market day!

If you have young kids this is the best hotel in all of Kyoto. Right next to a giant park that has a creek to play in(allowed as an outdoor playground), Kyoto aquarium, Train museum, and jungle gym playgrounds. Room was immaculate, staff extremely polite and helpful, and breakfast was delicious. Will be coming back next time we are in Japan

Loved everything about this hotel. Had daily sento time. The breakfast is amazing. Located next to a large park for walks. The kyoto aquarium is in the park. Close to the train station but not at all near the urban scramble of the station. Would stay here again.

Loved the location of this hotel, one stop on local line from Kyoto central station or a 10-15 minute walk. The area is quiet next to a lovely park and there is a family mart, a 2 minute walk away which is handy. The staff were all lovely and friendly, helped us to send our bags in to our next hotel and we have limited Japanese.
Our room was clean and lovely comfortable beds which is what you need after a day’s sightseeing.
Would stay here again.

Umekoji Potel is undoubtedly one of the best hotels I've stayed in! The hotel was incredibly easy to get to and from Kyoto station (as Umekoji is one stop away) our room was amazing with a fantastic view of the park. The staff were amazing from the moment we stepped through the door and were always keen to help us when needed. The facilities are excellent and it was lovely to have different spaces to relax in other than our room. Incredibly family-friendly as well. Thanks for the lovely time!
