Travelodge Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

Room was clean and comfortable, hotel is in a good location with plenty of food and shopping options around.

Very Clean and extremely convenient, considered transportation network of Kyoto is not as diverse as other major cities in Japan, you can explore the city on foot or by bus, for which the bus stop sited literally right next to the hotel. You can travel to the hotel from Kyoto station by bus or taxi, which takes only 10 mins by taxi. Very helpful and cheerful staff. Overall a pleasant stay

Great location, friendly stuff and clean rooms. That will be it. Cleaning service is available only for people staying 4 nights and longer (in general it’s okay, but comparing to the other hotels may be a bit disappointing). Breakfast is truly upsetting, it’s worth it’s price, dirty counters, sticky trays, poor choice (usually hotels of such kind offer a choice of ordinary food for those who are not ready to eat local dishes, but there were no eggs or something basic of this kind. That’s why we skipped out paid breakfasts several times) Truly crowded location, long waiting time for the elevator, no opportunity to use laundry because there only two washing machines)

Clean and tidy reception hospitality. Good breakfast Nice and comfortable hotel . I shall come back 😘👍👍👍

Smack right in the middle of the busy streets of Kyoto. There are shops and food stalls everywhere within walking distance. The train lines too. Staff are friendly and greeted us well when we came in. The place looks nice and has a little Japanese vibe. The rooms were a little small though, so don’t expect too much

Centrally Located with a Few Drawbacks Travel Lodge is located on a shopping street with plenty of places to eat nearby. It’s also within walking distance of Gion, making it a great base for exploring. The location offers easy access to both bus and metro lines, making transportation convenient, and it’s not a far walk to reach either option. They also provide luggage storage, which is helpful. However, be aware that rooms are only cleaned every 4th day, so if you’re staying fewer than four nights (like we did), you won’t have a clean room and you’ll need to grab supplies and exchange towels at the main desk. The hotel breakfast, served at a neighboring restaurant, was a bit of a letdown. It mainly consisted of bread and some oily sides, though the coffee and drink options were good. The room itself was typical for a Japanese hotel—compact, but clean, with a hot shower. Despite the small size, after a long day of walking, you’ll sleep fine! Just keep in mind that check-in is at 3 PM, and check-out is at 10 AM, so plan accordingly!
