This is a very average hotel. Location is good, close to Kyoto station but far from night life. The cleanness in the room is decent but the lobby has a bad smell, kind of like old smoke. Pillows are very uncomfortable. The public bath is nice and clean. There is no coffee in the room or in the lobby, you should go and buy coffee in the morning. They provide Japanese style PJ and free beer in the afternoon which is nice.

Our stay at Hotel Sanoya in Kyoto was very enjoyable. The hotel is conveniently located close to Kyoto Station and the staff was extremely helpful, professional and friendly. The rooms are Japanese style with tatami and futons, which is exactly how I like it. The rooms were very clean and I did NOT detect any cigarette smoke smell (which can be a consideration in Japanese hotels). The public bath was spacious and hot, though our room also had a private bath tub/shower as well. As a tip, Kyoto Station is big, so in order to find the most convenient exit, head towards the "Porta" section of the station head out Exit A5 and turn left before crossing the street. The hotel is right there! Alternatively, if you want to hit up a combini, Exit A3 takes you out right next to FamilyMart and you just cross the street (with Kyoto tower on your left) afterward to get to the hotel.

Was very disappointed that the mattress was uncomfortable to sleep on. The pillow was small and flat. Didn’t like the open area in lobby for smoking, it made the whole lobby smell!! We got the room with shower and bathroom which was a good idea but it room was outdated and shower and toilet was in different corner of the room. The doors and floor are so thin that we could hear everything around us!

We booked for a Japanese room but it was very small and was far from a Japanese room as I know of it. The room had very poorly repaired and scratched-all-over furniture. The room was the same floor with the sub-kitchen and very noisy. Staff was very kind and helpful, the only positive point. Will only recommend to the homeless person.

the bed is very comfy yet the hotel is old. it's odd and unsafe to keep the key at counter before we go out and the locks for door and safe box were not very secured. when we were sleeping, the cleaning lady use her key to open the door for house-keeping. although she immediately left the room when she saw me, i still felt embarrassed and offended. the staff is polite and able to communicate well in english. nice to have snack everyday in our room.

We were very pleased with the Ryokan style room. The comfortable futons were laid out by staff at 7:30 pm, there were various size robes and slippers available in room. The public bath was clean and tasteful. The Japanese traditional breakfast was delicious, and added an old world charm to our whole experience. The staff speaks very little English but enough to patiently make our needs known. It was located in walmi g distance to the train station which made it easy to get around.We would definately stay there again.

This was a nice stay in hotel for it near train station and friendly service with staff. Not cheap though, but I like their public bath. Nice staff service sometimes is very important to a trip for it might ruin your whole journey. I would recommend this hotel.

It is clean and has big space. The hotel staff is very nice. All of our family members are happy for staying 4 night there. The only thing I am not happy is that the restaurant is not a walk-in place. You have to reserve the food before you can get in. The restaurant staff does not know english at all. But it doesn't matter. There are huge food selections in the train station. It only take 1 min to walk there.

Convenient location, bathroom is very clean, staff attitude is positive and helpful. Hotel condition is old, we could hear people chatting from the other side of the room clearly. My husband went down to the front desk to file a complaint in the middle of the night and it was addressed immediately. Breakfast is traditional Kyoto style, nice presentation and tasted good.

We choose a Ryokan style room. It was very big and interesting with Tatami matts and sliding partitions. The service was fine and the staff were very friendly and helpfull. The authentic Japanese breakfast was a great experience. I would recommend for ryokan experience. The only negative feature was that there was a smell in the toilet area which was detectable when we entered the room.

Very handy location to Kyoto train station, walking distance to CBD. Staffs are very nice even limited English. Breakfast is very good, too. I'd send pics to my friends who are willing to Japan. Thanks a lot.
