Kyoto Tokyu

Rooms have a little more space than most city hotels and are both clean and well presented, with modern bathrooms and plenty of light. They are above all however, functional, unless opting for one of the larger suites which take the comfort levels and amenities up a significant notch, with their separate seating areas and more vibrant décor. Convenience is key here, whether dining in or enjoying a drink on the outdoor waterfall terrace, strolling the short walk to nearby Nishi Honganji Temple – a UNESCO World Heritage site, or journeying to the iconic Gion area of the city, it’s all at hand. The lobby is grand and welcoming although can get busy at certain times of the day, so once checked in, simply unwind in the lounge or head out to explore the best of beguiling Kyoto.
