The hotel is very nice and the staff is attentive and nice. The rooms are clean and bright. Everyone on staff greets you as you pass them. If you have any questions they are there to assist. I had a very good stay. The only advice I have is if to make dinner plans ahead of time because some places close early or fill up quickly and you don’t want to scramble to find dinner.

Breakfast was mediocre and di not had options for cappuccino or latte. Considering the amount I paid for luxury Hollywood room, I was not impressed with the service provided. Breakfast was the same as people that paid for the lowest price room. I expected some fruits or welcome hors d’oeuvres but there was none. No lotion or bath salt/ bubble bath available from the room and when we requested for it only lotion was available.

We stayed at Tokyu Hotel in Kyoto and had a very pleasant experience. The hotel was great—very clean, and our room was spacious and comfortable. The food was good and satisfying. Our only observation is about the location: with kids, it’s not ideal since the nearest subway station requires a bit of a walk. That said, taxis were always available, and Kyoto is not a large city, so getting around was still easy. Overall, a very comfortable and convenient stay.

I'm thoroughly impressed with the service I have received at Kyoto Tokyu hotel. I have stayed in other hotels in Japan, but this is one hotel where I felt really welcome, taken care of, and safe as a single woman traveller. The service staff have excellent "omotenashi" skills and are very generous, and I felt very comfortable communicating with them. Although the room was a basic standard room, the faciliites were nothing short of excellent. It was very easy for me to visit the top locations in Kyoto by commuting by bus near the hotel. Most hotels allow for check-in at 3 p.m. and check-out at 10 a.m., but at Tokyu, you can check-in at 2 p.m. and check-out at 11 a.m. I thought this was really great. Overall, it was very much worth every yen I spent on the room. I will definitely stay at this hotel when I return to Kyoto, and will for sure recommend their services to people I know. Thank you very much, Hotel Tokyu! (P.S. I thought it was really cool that they had the option to play the radio in the room, and the lady staff who helped me out in the room was really kind!)
