The best hotel I’ve in Japan. I’ve been to Japan 3 times and I love Kabin. The rooms were really big and spacious which is something you don’t really in Japan Hotels. The breakfast was the best breakfast I’ve had in any hotels I’ve stood in, in any of my trips. And the drinks from their bar were really good. I’m definitely staying in the Kabin hotel everytime I’m in Kyoto for now on.

Nice spacious room, very clean and we enjoyed the location. We found drinks were quite expensive at the hotel bar so we didn’t not indulge. I would recommend using the laundry mat nearby opposed to the hotel ones. The ones in the hotel were always busy and did not adequately wash our clothes and the dryer did not work. Overall, lovely place to stay and we would love to be back!
