Our room was spacious, clean and full amenities. Loved the view of Kyoto Tower from the window.! Only thing we were disappointed was our room location was too far from the elevator. My brother in law has mobility issue with cane. I should’ve asked where the rooms as I checked in but also his condition was obvious. If the staff at front desk could’ve asked our preferred location would make my feedback perfect. Although when I asked to switch the room on the phone, the staff was very proactive and accommodated my request. Overall we loved our experience. Thank you

I love the functional layout and spaciousness of the room, great buffet with variety and fresh fruits, and proximity of the hotel to Kyoto station (for convenient bus and train access). One negative about it is that, being located on 3rd floor (reception) and up (guest rooms), the hotel is very difficult to find. The building is actually shaped like a letter U, with both the north and south elevators on the opposite tip/ends. To access the north entrance, you must find yourself on the ground floor of a complex filled with shops and take an escalator up. The south entrance is across the main entrance of a department store JR Isban, and you take a short escalator up. Suggest that the hotel provides on its website, a map with clear directions from JR train station (where you get off from the KIX airport train). Definitely, I shall return to this hotel next time.

The hotel is attached to Kyoto station so it is very accessible and the room was good and clean, plus the staff was very friendly and helpful. The buffet was good too and close by is Porta where you can dine and shop. My only issue was the distance from the elevator to the room, supposedly the closest elevator was at least a couple of blocks walk, no joke, and my room was 19 out of 95 on the floor.

I had a 4 night solo stay at Hotel Granvia Kyoto. Location was excellent for sightseeing in and around Kyoto as well as day trips using the Shinkansen to other cities. Great restaurants are plentiful in Kyoto station and within easy walking distance of hotel. As a female traveler I felt absolutely safe in this area and using the trains/subway and walking at night. Often hotels near train stations are seedy but Japanese standards are not the same as Europe etc. I booked a superior room with a beautiful view of the Kyoto Tower and noise was a non-issue from the street or the trains. Rooms are soundproof and I slept well every night. The superior room was divinely spacious and thoughtfully well appointed. After the cramped and pricier hotel rooms in Tokyo, the Granvia was a welcome and relaxing change. My breakfast was included and I enjoyed both the western and traditional Japanese restaurants. Gym access was a nice touch to burn off the oishi ramen and sushi! Staff are attentive and very respectful. Very elevated experience at reasonable price and Granvia exceeded my expectations. Beautifully appointed superior room was a full suite with seating area as well as table/desk area. Conveniently located with Kyoto station attached to hotel was unbeatable perk for my sightseeing. Highly recommend!
