Conveniently located close to Kyoto train station
Not only is the Rihga Gran just a short walk from Kyoto Station, but close to many interesting shopping complexes and scrumptious restaurants. Good sized rooms plus washing/drying machines, onsen/baths and a great buffet breakfast. Excellent value for money. Recommended.

Nice hotel
Very nice hotel and staff.
Breakfast very good, but the bar and lounge menu was expensive for what it offered.
Room was comfortable and good size.
The staff were quite courteous and helped us for diner reservations.
