Kyoto Royal Hotel & Spa

"Perfect location for tourists. Buses for most of the famous historical sightseeing spots leave in front of the hotel. JPY8000 for a single room per night at a 4-star hotel including free internet access is a very good deal." - Anonymous

"I found the service and value to be excellent. We subsequently booked in off the street and did not get nearly as good a deal as we had with [website] but still it was a great location and really helpful staff. " - Anonymous

"A very pleasant and well located hotel in central Kyoto" - Peter Rodgers

"We booked this hotel for one night because it had a 24 hour reception and it was reasonably priced (12,000 yen) for a twin room compared to other Western-styled hotels (we flew into Kansai Airport in the early evening and took the Haraku Limited Express, then subway, to this hotel, a journey of some 2 hours). Hotel staff very helpful – assisted us to call airline about a jacket left behind on the plane, and gave clear information on how to get around Kyoto. Room adequate sized for a night; we chose to stay at a number of ryokans for the rest of our journey in tatami-mat rooms. Buckwheat filled pillows were a nice touch, but the cigarette smoke in the corridors was bad, even though I requested for a non-smoking room, or for a non-smoking floor. The room had some smoke too, but didn’t bother me enough to get a good night’s sleep. Location great! Had two computers in the lobby with internet access but were very slow, running Windows 2000 – oops!" - Anonymous
