Great hotel
The room was tastefully decorated with Japanase style. It hand a room for tea, that at night transformed into a place to sleep with tatamis. The bathroom and shower area were among the best in Japan.

Small space for family of 4 to stay. We had to store away table to be able to sleep. Not much counter top space inside bath to keep our bath items. Front desk staffs were very friendly.

Very nice hotel and comfortable stay. Good accommodating for luggages storage before/after checkin. Too bad the breakfast required reservation and there wasn't much restaurant to close by. Close-by To-ji, train museum and aquarium.

Great location and spacious rooms
We had a great stay at Hotel Banister Kyoto. The hotel is located in a quiet area within a 10-min walk from the main Kyoto station. There is plenty of convenience stores, restaurants and a large mall within walking distance. We also found the park 2mins walk great give our kids a run around at (the aquarium is next to the park too). The room itself was spacious with a good layout. It had lots of great amenities and comfy beds. There is a small cafe and restaurant on the lobby but we never used it as the cafe didn’t open until 11 (even for coffee). Overall we had a great stay and would highly recommend.

家にいるような
マンションの部屋をホテルとしたようなものなので、部屋も浴室も広く、なんといっても私は複数の窓が自由に開けられるのが、とても快適でした。ホテルではない誰かの家にいるような気分でした。少し歩けばイオンモールもありましたね。洗面所の蛇口が新しいデザインで、少しの間、どうすれば使えるのかわかりませんでしたが。欲を言えば、もう少しデスクが広いと仕事するのにはありがたかったのですが。

4/10 Fair

Mala experiencia, no volveremos ni lo recomendarem
La experiencia no ha sido buena. No habia agua caliente en la ducha de la habitacion, no habia cortina en el tatami por lo que si dormias alli, la liz del sol entraba a las 5:00am y finamente muy mal el desayuno: nos pidieron confirmar la hora y no entendemos el motivo ya que al llegar no estaba nada preparado y el desayuno en si, el occidental, la unica bebida era agua (ni cafe ni zumo ni nada más) y la comida eran dos hojas de lechuga, una loncha de beicon, un pure de verduras y 3 minipiezas de bolleria (lo unico comestible de todo el desayuno). En resumen, muy mala experiencia.

線路のそばで、夜間の音が気になる方には不向きです。 京都駅からは歩いて10分ほどなのでお得感はありますが、周りは何もないエリアなので、その点はマイナスです。 お風呂が広くとてもきれいで、またトイレとも別ですので、その点は高評価です。
