Cross Hotel Kyoto

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed here with my Geriatric parents. The location was great! The room didn’t feel small for Japan hotels and 3 adults were comfortable in the room with 3 beds. I will stay here again."

Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

8/10 Good

"Stayed at the Forza for 5 nights. It was a good standard tourist class hotel, in the middle of all the Kyoto Action comparable to a Holiday Inn. I picked based on ratings and location. You could walk to restaurants, shops, the river and even Gion - but the main Kyoto train Station was a 40 min walk and with luggage not really doable, so we took a cab both ways. The room was a good size for Japan standards and I liked that they provided 2 free water bottles daily (as long as you had them clean your room). The lobby also offered a 24 hour coffee machine with very small cups - but it was included. You were also given a token daily for a 2 ounce pour of Sake. The lobby when available was great - however it’s the same space they use for breakfast so it isn’t available between 6:30 -10:30 am. The breakfast was reasonably priced for $2200 yen - probably best if you include with your room rate - which we did not. I didn’t care for the self-check in - but 2 of the 4 hotels I stayed at in Japan used this method and it was easy enough. You also self-checked out. They did not offer a laundry service like dry cleaning, but did have self use laundry machines. If you are seeking a mid-range accommodation - this hotel could be a good choice."
