10/10 Exceptional

The hotel itself was amazing and comfortable. Very clean and spacious. It is a bit away from nearby stations and the Nishiki market so be prepared to walk.

This was a lovely property, very clean and conveniently located
Krystal, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great location for shopping and visiting Kyoto’s sights. The staff were most helpful and the room was comfortable, clean and modern with a great bathroom.
Joe, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

Grocery store nearby and great food options are nearby. Beds and overall room is great. They have paid breakfast but also a free breakfast with sugar, waffles and some bread and a toaster oven. The overall hotel doesn't really look like a hotel from the outside, as inside they have a bar facing the outside and then the check-in is a little deeper in so that was a little hard to find

Big window with nice view. The bed very comfortable. Complementary drinks at the lobby is great with choices.
Man Yee, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

The breakfast set that came with our booking was the highlight of our stay at this hotel. It was delicious and very filling. We also got really lucky that we were give a room on the top floor with a really nice view of Kyoto. If it wasn't for that, I would only give this rating 3 stars. However, my big complaint is that this does not feel like you're staying at a 4 star hotel. We stayed at a 4 star hotel in Tokyo and the room there was much bigger. The room at this hotel felt cramped with our luggage. The bathroom at this hotel also does not have a tub. All the other hotels we've stayed at during our Japan vacation had a bath tub except for this one. In my opinion, this place is more of a 3 star hotel.

Kyoto Agora

The best hotel from our Japan trip! Made us really fall in love with Kyoto. For a modern hotel it really emanates a traditional spirit. We had an entry way, with seperate rooms for toilet, shower and bedroom with a sliding door. The furnishings were great, and it was incredible comfortable. We almost didn’t want to leave!

2/10 Poor

Crazily expensive for what it is. Tiny room. Tiny beds. Total rip-off.
OLIVER CHRISTIAN RUSSELL, 1-night trip

Neat and modern

Neat and very modernly designed. Very clever usage of the small room space. No desk to work in the room.

Smoke smell on main floor at times.
Gladys, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

No problem. There is no bathtub, only a shower. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, so you don't have to worry.

4/10 Fair

Not the cleanest and service is subpar

They put me in a smoking room even though I booked a non-smoking one. The toilet wasn’t cleaned properly in that room. They gave me another room which was actually non-smoking, which was good but that room wasn’t cleaned properly either. The person who stayed there before me left a pair of socks in the room which was just lying on the floor. The foldable table was really dirty. Could have been a nice place but eh.
