Miyako Hotel Kyoto Hachijo

10/10 Excellent
"The location was great,right next to the station and there is a shopping mall next to it. However, the station is huge and most of main things are the other side, if easily takes 10 mins to walk to get to the other side. Hotel was clean, room was nice and spacious. Amenities were great. We enjoyed staying this hotel for 4 nights."
