We had a great stay here. It was a self service type experience but it all was simple and worked great for us. The bed was comfortable. It was very close to the main shopping areas in Kyoto with just a short walk and there were many great shops and restaurants down the side streets in the neighborhood as well. There was a great local grocery store just across the street too. The staff were helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at the Shijo Takakura Hotel grandreverie was great! It was the most memorable room of our trip to Japan, a great design and lots of space. The stone shower and bathtub were especially luxury. The staff was incredibly attentive. It's the one place we'd immediately go again!

Close proximity to the train station was a key feature in choosing this hotel. We stayed on the side opposite the tracks and didn't hear any train noise. Rooms are small and minimalist but clean, staff were friendly, breakfast was really quite good.

It was comfortable for a solo trip and I slept well for a hotel. I got lucky getting a corner room since you can hear people through the walls when walking down the hall. What bothered me the most was the bath towel having brown stains.
