Stayed as a family of 3. Room had 3 single beds, and a couch that you cannot open. There is almost no room left for walking in the room (small size). However it was very very clean hotel. Staff was going above and beyond. They are very helpful. Here are pros and cons; Pros: Location is perfect (great stores, right across 7/11, very close to Nishiki market, walking distance to shops and Gion). Very safe area, close to several public transportation. Bathroom is very clean and functional. Cons: room size is very small, especially if you have hardcover luggages. Even though light is coming from outside, our room has frosty windows, there is no way to see outside.

Great location. Great room. Breakfast was good. Staff friendly and very helpful. No negatives that come to mind. I used luggage forwarding to/ from this hotel - very handy and worth the cost. Laundry washer/dryer machine was very handy. There are two on floor 2, and two on floor 3. Never done laundry myself in hotel before, but instructions were ok, and happy with results. A web page tells you how long left for wash cycle so washing can be left while it is running . No need for washing powder as it has its own.

Staff were helpful and friendly. Amenities were great and convenient. Location wise I found a little bit inconvenient. If you are in Kyoto to sightsee (going to Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari, etc.), there may be better locations to reside in but if you are looking to mostly shop, this is a great location.

Great little hotel in a great area. One little complaint is the bed: it’s pretty firm, which is normal for Japan, but along with small, flat pillows it’s a bit uncomfortable even in Japan standards. Rooms are a bit larger than normal though.

The Forza Chain Always Meets Expectations

I have stayed at several Hotel Forzas across Japan and it always meets my expectations and delivers the same features & services. However, I have 2 gripes about this Hotel Forza property. Hotel lobby is on B1F and you always have to take the escalator down 1 floor from Ground to take one of two elevators to your room. There is a third elevator but that only takes you to Ground Floor. The complimentary 3-in-1 lotion only has grapefruit fragance and is not effective. Minor grievances, great hotel chain.
