There are amenities necessary and special (face pack, eye pack) and everything was placed in the right spot!! Green tea and roasted black soybean coffee were great.
The hotel is at very convenient location.
Only challenge was that it was a bit hard to control the room temperature. It was not necessary to use AC, but the room were getting warm during the night.

Really surprised by the spacious, wonderful room at this hotel. It was double the size of most hotel rooms I’ve stayed at all over Japan and the shower/bathtub was just unbelievable. They definitely had a lot of switches for all the accessories and lights for the room but that’s how much each room has in terms of amenities and convenience. The location couldn’t be any better in Kyoto and the staff was great. They even helped me get a reservation at a restaurant that I wanted to visit. A+++

The thermostat automatically readjusts to 26 Celcius after a few hours. This wasn't very pleasant since it was sweltering and humid in Osaka and every night I would wake up sweaty and have to get up and bump it back down to 24 degrees. The nightly rate here wasn't cheap and I'm annoyed I couldn't control the room temperature where I needed it.

A very nice hotel right by the river and very close to Gion and Nishiki market. Rooms are big with really nice river view. excellent bathroom and separate toilet. no restaurant but the hotel owner provides ready made western or japanese breakfast either in the room or downstairs separate eating area. Very attentive and friendly staff. Having travelled around the world and having top tiers in many hotel reservation frequent traveller programs i can say that this hotel is among the top. In the future when visiting Kyoto I will stay here.

Hotel Alza Kyoto was such a charming hotel with charming and extremely helpful and accommodating staff. I loved the feel of a small the hotel with only about 20 rooms. It overlooks Kamo River which makes for such a great stroll, jog, or bike ride, along with a beautiful view! I enjoyed the location as it was a few minutes walk from a major train station and within a reasonable walking distance to most of the other typical Gion destinations, though it was not right in the middle of all the bustle. I do hope I make it back to Kyoto again, and I would absolutely look to stay here again if I do!

The room was spacious, with a nice table and chairs and counter space. Our room had a balcony overlooking the river. The shower was nice with a luxurious deep soaking tub and a mounted TV above the tub! Easily one of the best hotels I've ever stayed in.

The hotel says they offered breakfast - I would not take this option. It’s a breakfast that comes from somewhere else. The staff were not very helpful when I said I was a vegetarian
Otherwise the rooms are large and the area is well located for tourists

We loved how conveniently located this property is. The rooms were a good size and very well-appointed. Plus very quiet. The only downside is the lack of a restaurant or bar on the premises.
10.0
This property is definitely a 4.5 star at minimum. We have travelled to many, many countries, and have stayed in many types of accommodations. This is one of the finest, best situated, and beautiful hotel rooms we have ever stayed in. We overlooked the beautiful river with a patio.
The room had EVERY amenity that you could ever need.
We wouldn’t stay anywhere else when we return to Kyoto.
Thanks Hotel Alza Kyoto !

Huge rooms, by far the biggest and nicest hotel we stayed at during our very busy travel around Japan. Hotel staff goes above and beyond, speaks great English, and is incredibly accommodating. I plan to come back to this hotel when i return to Kyoto. The bathroom in the hotel room was by far the best part, I miss it! Great value for your money, very close to transit and everything you want to see in Kyoto.

We loved staying at this hotel. Our room was spacious and overlooked the river and with a view of the cherry blossom trees. The staff was helpful and could speak english. The location was great. We were able to easily walk to the Gion district and restaurants. We also liked that this wasn’t a huge hotel which made it feel more intimate and it was quiet. We would stay here again.
