Nintendo World Headquarters Tours

I booked this hotel some months ago and I started reading reviews prior to check in. I'll admit I got a bit nervous. That being said we decided to stay the night and try it out. First impressions were that there was more space than many rooms we've stayed in while in Japan. Many features look newish and it has a full kitchen. Then things get weird. The wall paper is peeling off. There's a persistent bad smell. There's roach traps everywhere. I tried to shower and the shower nozzle fell off. My husband tried to leave to do a Lawson run and the latch on the lock fell off. The beds were surprisingly comfortable but it's also loud in the morning with people talking in the alleyway. It was fine for the night but I wouldn't stay here again.

A good hotel, good space for our needs but the room was very noisy - the air conditioning in particular disrupted our sleep because it was so loud/made drain noises. All staff were lovely and we liked the location.

We enjoyed our stay at Bell Hotel in Kyoto. The rooms were clean and had everything we need and more. The staff were also very helpful, especially when we needed help to get taxis to the train station.
