"Great location, super modern and clean, staff was very friendly and even had a birthday card for my daughter and let us use a Polaroid camera to make memories. They saw us dressed up in kimonos and came outside to take pictures of us. Even told us where to pose so you could see the beautiful temple in the background. Overall, this was a beautiful place and I would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend"

Mercure Kyoto Station

10/10 Excellent

"I had three weeks in Japan and my four nights here were the best stays of the trip. It’s nothing more than a five minute stroll from Kyoto station which makes moving around the city easy, and is walking distance from a plethora of places to eat and drink, as well multiple city attractions. The reception staff are kind and exceptionally polite, the room was beautiful and spacious with a beautiful view across the city; it smelt good and it was maintained daily to a fantastic standard amongst our bags and clutter. Sometimes it’s easy to try and avoid chain hotels but this one felt different, it felt full of love and appreciation for guests. Don’t hesitate to stay here, you won’t regret it."
