Hotel Forza Kyoto Shijo Kawaramachi

Should have a water dispenser available for this hotel. This is a must for almost all hotel. Also first time to encounter when you lost a room card and need to pay for 1000 yen. Overalll is good hotel and can be recommended to stay .

Located near Nishiki market various of foods and deserts. Walk distance to main attraction in Kyoto like Kiyomizu temple, Kamo river, Gion. Recommend

Location is like a 10-15min walk from station. There are STAIRS, no lift or elevator so it’s a pain if have a large and heavy suitcase! When I arrived at the lobby, I actually wasn’t sure whether it was the reception because it looked more like a counter at a large restaurant. The reception staff didn’t really dress like a reception staff. She was just wearing a very casual looking striped top like this a random top from Uniqlo. Another staff was wearing a suit jacket over the striped tshirt which looked more proper. When I approached the reception staff, there’s no smile, actually she did not smile throughout the time I talked to her. And when I said I wanted to check-in, she said something like u can just use those machines over there to check-in yourself…I was charged accommodation tax for 2 ppl instead of 1 person, I asked why, she said she can refund the 400yen, yet if it’s just me staying at the room the room rate is actually more expensive…..err…the cleanliness is quite disappointing, looking at the pyjamas the provided, would anyone want to wear that when it looks so worn out with so much pilling? There was dust on walls near ceiling, I imagine ppl who have nose allergies eg allergic to dust with have a hard time sleeping in the room….i don’t think i will want to stay at this hotel again.

Room is spacious. Toilet shower was good and the tub is big. I didn’t get any nice view from the room but the comfort and interior of the room compensated so it was fine. The overall feel of the room and the hotel is good. I will stay here again if I visit this area.

Clean hotel at good location with delicious breakfast, nothing more you need to ask for ;-)

The hotel room is specius, and is located very central. The breakfast is feel was missing some taste, but is still very respectable.

Water is only given 2 bottles per day. However there is a free sake daily. Free coffee unlimited. Location is just very near nishiki market.

Excellent location, walk distance to tourist attractions.

Very good hotel. Offers coffee at reception also you can get sake each day 😊
