Kyoto University Tours

The check in process was quick and seamless. I used a luggage delivery service and my luggage was waiting in the lobby at my arrival. The woman at the desk was pleasant and helpful with tips for my stay. The room was clean and contained slippers as well as compartments at the door for my arrival. The kitchen has dishes and an ice tray in the freezer!! As a family of 4, we appreciated the large closet, separate toilet and bath area as well as the sliding wall. There is a beautiful garden acoss the street and many shops within walking distance. I appreciated the quiet of the area and the balcony area for the apartment. The only downside is the difficulty in obtaining a luggage delivery service for the next leg of my trip. But I would definitely visit this property again.

I couldn’t be happier with my stay at the Gates Hotel. The hotel was beautiful and was in a perfect location. Nishiki market was less than a 10 minute walk and there seemed to be a taxi right outside the hotel every time I needed one. The staff was very friendly and helped me set up my luggage transfer to my next hotel in Osaka. I would 1000 percent be staying here again the next time I’m in Kyoto.

Staff was very helpful, we mailed our luggage to the hotel and they delivered the luggages to our room before our arrival. Breakfast was great, room was clean, couple of restaurant nearby and a lawson downstarirs
