i stayed here to go to Toji Shrine..a 15 minute walk away this hotel strikes a great balance between a minimum budget stay and a well heeled luxury ammenity hotel i booked a deeply discounter last minute stay and couldn’t have been happier in addition to in room bathing they offfer the use of a Japanese style communal bath the worst thing one could say about this hotel is that it’s across the streeet from a huge bus depot BUT it’s in a good location:15 min South of kyoto train station and also 15 min East of Toji Shrine

Thank you for staying our hotel. As you say our hotel has in front of the bus stop, so you can go any sightseeing spot. Please visit us again when you come to Kyoto. Best regard.

Amazing hotel. Clean, courteous, informative. Right outside bus stop and a block away from subway. Excellent breakfast! Staff could not have been more accommodating and spa is great after walking and exploring all day. 711 and other restaurants within walking distance and mall.

Good location good value
Good location only about a 10min walk mainly flat and easy to find. The room is adequate but on the small size. As is the bathroom. Staff are very friendly and helpful and the bus stop for all the main attractions in Kyoto is at the front door of the hotel. Clean and serviced daily. Good value and good location.

Noisy room and basic facilities
Strange noise coming from just outside window. Neither of us slept well because of this. Out of all the hotels we stayed in Japan this was the most basic regards facilities. Oh and fridge was also very noisy.

Ideal and convenient, hotel meets all requirements. Rooms in Japan are generally small but include all you need. Good for transport links, 10 minute easy walk to main train station and hotel directly opposite bus station. Smart phone provided in room & for use when out. Reception staff very welcoming and helpful, nothing too much trouble, would book again.

Very good value
10 minute walk from the Kyoto station. Air conditioned, kettle, and empty mini-fridge. The mattress is very firm and the pillow has some sort of weird, overly stiff fill, however there are memory foam pillows available along with nightgowns near the elevator. It is a smallish Euro type room. Plenty of power outlets. Wifi works great. If you are like me, the only time I spend in the room in for sleep so the small size is no matter. I did not try the daily breakfast buffet but it looks like they have a lot of items. There were families and business guys staying here.

Good Hotel, but there is no password for men's onsen yet their is one for women's onsen... Room is small, but I'm ok with that. Location is on the less busy side of Kyoto station, but it's only an easy 5 min walk away. Overall good hotel, friendly staff.

Nice hotel close to Kyoto Station
The hotel is about a 10-15 mins walk from Kyoto Station. The staff is very friendly and helpful. They offer breakfast at a reasonable price (around $10 per person) but there is not much variety. The room where we stayed was a little too tight. We had a non-smoking room, but if for some reason we shut-off the fan/vent in the bathroom, you could smell the smoke from the smoking rooms from our bathroom; so we kept the fan running at all times to fix that problem. Other than that, the laundry room was easy to use, although the dryers took 90 minutes to somewhat dry our clothes (clothes were not fully dried but we gave up). Overall, since we stayed during high season, the hotel served its purpose.

Amazing stay at this very friendly, clean and relatively quite hotel. This is on the quieter side of Kyoto and we loved that fact. It's very well connected to all tourist destinations by bus, Trains and some by foot. Kyoto main station is only a 10 minute walk.

Modern Hotel with Friendly Staff
The hotel amenities are all brand new. The staffs are all friendly and can speak good english. However its location is a good 10-15 min walk from Kyoto station and a bit challenging if you carry a heavy luggage. But overall i would recommend this hotel if you are planning to stay in Kyoto.

Good hotel with great service.
Good hotel located in a quiet neighborhood one stop south of Kyoto Station. Our room was comfortable but very small. We feel that bottled water should be provided in the room. Though they do provide unlimited tea and coffee at the lobby. Two restaurants plus a 7-eleven nearby. Would recommend this hotel for its competitive price.

Room is cosy and clean, with all the stuff and equipment you may need. Staff is very kind and polity. We recommend Green Rich hotel to everybody who want to stay in Kyoto

Very nice hotel.
This was a single room booking. The room is quite large for a single, especially when you're in Japan. So be happy, this room has more than enough for a single traveller. The staff was very courteous, friendly & their knowlegde of English was really good. The room is spacious, bathroom is a good size, and very clean. Little fun trying to figure out the a/c control but I managed. FYI, you have to put your key into the slot to turn on the electricity in the room. You also have to leave your key at the front desk when you're going out. (no biggy to be honest) And if you're oout after midnight the door will be locked & you must either buzz in or get the code from the front desk that day, so you can get in. (again, no biggy) The day I had to check out, I had to go some where & they were nice enough to hold my bags until I got back. Things turned later than I thought, but when I gave them the number tag they gave me, they presented me with my bags. AT NO CHARGE! And thanked me for staying & to enjoy the rest of trip. Now that's amazing for service.

On my first night there, I urgently need some drugs for fever and asked for help late evening. They simply showed me where to buy. It was a bit far. I finally found another hotel nearby and they gave me some drugs for emergency.

Fantastic small hotel.
Fantastic small hotel. A short pleasant walk from the train station. Very nice decor, a very good value and extremely clean. It did have a slight stuffy (maybe smokey) smell but once you are in the room and the air conditioner is on it goes away very quickly. The room was a little small but not too small and it was fine for myself traveling solo and probably ok for a couple as well.

cheap clean small room
We could not beat the location to the JR station or a local bus line. The hotel location was quiet and clean. The size of the room and bathroom was small and cramped for 2 people. The bed was uncomfortably firm. The A/C was amazing. The staff knew enough English to be helpful. Would stay again if passing through Kyoto, but if staying for couple days we would find a hotel with a more comfortable bed and more sizable room.
