Great all around hotel at an even better price. Had a poor stay at another hotel before EN Hotel Kyoto and it's safe to say that it saved the trip. Very friendly and helpful staff, clean room, good amenities and decent location. Only things is change are putting an outlet in the bathroom and making the bathroom itself a bit bigger. Other than that, I think you’d have a hard time finding a better bang for your buck.

The hotel was ok. The WiFi has awful and for travellers from abroad WiFi is pretty key in order to plan your day etc. The hotel was very noisy, as in from your room you could hear everything in the corridor. There was also a smell of smoke when the window was open. Location was good but if you plan to stay for a well, I’d look elsewhere.

Lots of positives about the place but several things really bothered us during our stay. First, the wifi was horrible for our floor. No connection all the time and had to use our data most of the time. Second, the bathroom is way too tiny even in Japan standard. Lastly, the AC was incredibly loud and many other amenities need an upgrade very soon.

Nice hotel, great location as it’s so close to the bus stops and station which made it easy to get around. The staff were always so pleasant and accommodating, the room itself was a normal size (what you expect in Japan) and the amenities were good. Only wish that they cleaned our room/ bathroom better when we put our sign out as we stayed there 4 nights so fresh sheets and a general clean would’ve been nice but not a deal breaker at all! Also found great little food spots near us and the markets are close by! As well as a family mart right across the street, which was sooo handy! Would recommend for an affordable and nice stay to anyone looking in Kyoto!

Had a perfect stay here, located right next to so many food options, and a bus stop. I'd say the best thing about this hotel is that its located so close to the Nishiki Marke, and sooo many shopping places from designer, vintage, and other name brands. I could shop there forever.

I give it the total score of 4.5 over 5,.so I like it overall . However, it does have a few drawbacks. 1. Bathroom design should be improved for feet and leg safety. 2. Two Laundry machines in the building basement is not enough for so many customers. 3. Although the room is small, no chair is still hard to accepted. The lounge in the basement is crowded sometimes.

The rooms were full of dust, the bed was made up from 4 children's like mattresses that were joined together, making the sleep impossible and the bathroom was really dirty. On top of that, there was not even a seat in the room to stay on and the mattresses were simply put on the floor, accentuating the feeling of dirtiness because of all the dust was at the face level. The room was next to the cleaners' room at the end of the hallway and from very early in the morning, the noise was loud and unpleasant, sealing a night of poor sleep with an early morning abrupt wake. The other hotel inhabitants were noisy up until late in the night and we also got a lot of food smells and smoke from a restaurant below. Really bad experience.

The room was small for 3 adults but the bathroom wasn’t very clean especially the tub. One night we heard a huge fight going on above us that was alarming and when we requested an extra pillow the staff said no. For the price it is what to be expected but from all of our other stays this one has been so far the lowest on our recommendations.

3 night stay, nothing special, good for the price
We stayed here for 3 nights. The check in was lovely, and staff were very helpful with storing our bags during the day so we could explore The city. The area around the hotel is great - plenty of shops and restaurants, and a train station just a few blocks away. Unfortunately the room was a bit shabby - the toilet flush was broken and span 360 degrees - getting caught and causing a continual flush after we used the toilet for the first time. The handle for the bathroom was also hanging off - all the screws had come loose. I was able to fix these minor problems myself easily - but it’s a shame neither had been caught by cleaners before our arrival. Otherwise the room was perfectly serviceable - if a bit small - but for the price we paid I think it was very reasonable. Overall I would recommend this hotel if you’re looking for somewhere clean and cheap to stay - and intend to spend most of your stay outside exploring rather than in the hotel.

我和爸媽一起住一個晚上,在零晨2,3點時我爸爸上廁所時就被門邊整傷腳趾,流血不止。房內無電話可使用,去到大堂只有一個牌告知有需要請打電話。相信大家現在旅行電話絕大部份都只有流量并沒有通話功能。只好攞錢再去便利店買消洗止血用品回來再打算。我們前後落大堂數次,一直無人。直到後來止不到血,再落大堂決定用前枱電話打出。在電梯開門的時候聽到一點聲音,我嘗試大叫小房內是否有人,叫了很多聲,終於有人回應及走出來,最後接近2小時終於叫到救護車來。而爸爸的腳縫了16針,整個旅程都燬了。 酒店的問題: 1:前台半夜無人,電話應放在枱上,以防客人沒有電話可以。 2:房內無電話,想打電話要 求救都不可以。 3:并沒有醫藥箱或AED機在明顯位置,沒有搵到相關位置放在哪。 4:酒店讓爸爸在房內,休息到下一間酒店的可以入住為止。但并沒有為事件道歉或其他。 因為我其後住了幾間酒店,再沒見過廁所門邊是有門軌,都是平整的門邊。 老人家一同入住,我不建議。
