Nantan Vacation Packages

I booked this hotel some months ago and I started reading reviews prior to check in. I'll admit I got a bit nervous. That being said we decided to stay the night and try it out. First impressions were that there was more space than many rooms we've stayed in while in Japan. Many features look newish and it has a full kitchen. Then things get weird. The wall paper is peeling off. There's a persistent bad smell. There's roach traps everywhere. I tried to shower and the shower nozzle fell off. My husband tried to leave to do a Lawson run and the latch on the lock fell off. The beds were surprisingly comfortable but it's also loud in the morning with people talking in the alleyway. It was fine for the night but I wouldn't stay here again.

We really enjoyed how a lot of popular attractions where within walking distance and how spacious the room was.

The hotel location was in good distance from the train station and walking distance from Kyoto station. The room was well equiped with a kitchenette and washer. Will definitely plan to stay here next time we're in Kyoto.

Rooms were a great size and clean. Location was great to get around town. Having laundry machines was a plus.

Unfortunately, our stay at this hotel in Kyoto was quite disappointing, especially considering the price we paid. The room was extremely small, with barely enough space to accommodate our luggage and personal belongings. The overall condition of the hotel also felt quite dated, and there was a noticeably damp atmosphere throughout the property, including inside our room, which made the stay less comfortable. One particularly frustrating issue was the shower. The showerhead was not adjustable and sprayed water in all directions, to the point that we had to hold it with one hand just to shower properly. These are basic amenities that should not be an issue at a hotel charging this rate. What made the experience even more disappointing was the lack of interest from the staff during checkout. Nobody bothered to ask how our stay was or whether we had encountered any issues, missing a simple opportunity to demonstrate customer care. To be fair, the hotel’s location was its one major advantage. However, a good location alone does not justify the expensive rate, particularly when the room quality, overall condition, and service fall short of expectations. In my opinion, this property does not live up to its advertised four-star standard. Based on our experience, I would struggle to consider it even a three-star hotel. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this hotel, and we would not choose to stay here again.

Awesome location especially because it’s right above sinsaibashi station entrance.
