ibis Styles Kyoto Station 3 звезды

Our ship docked in Kobe overnight so we took the bullet train , did an evening tour and stayed here one night then took a morning tour and the bullet train back to the ship. Both our guides met us at Kyoto Station across the street from the hotel. There are lots of places to eat nearby and the hotel stay included breakfast (huge timesaver). Yes, the room is small but the bed was comfortable and the hotel is very clean. We appreciated the baskets of complimentary toiletry supplies like razors and toothbrushes. Remarkably affordable and central to bus, bullet train and regular train service.

You are right across from the Kyoto main train station about a 2 minute walk. Easy to access and check in. Rooms are priced in the mid range. Staff are super friendly and helpful. You can store your bags with ease and no extra charge. Check in was super easy. Multi languages available from the staff to be able to communicate in English and others as required. Room clean and a decent size. Highly recommend this property to stay at whilst in Kyoto.

Arrived 1hour before check in time, but they wouldn't let us into the room -letting a guest check in marginally early creates a lot of goodwill with customers and is a no cost win for the hotel. They wanted half the price I paid per night for the 1hr, they did look after our luggage. Hotel has modern decor and felt recently decorated. If you're needing the Kyoto station the hotel is across the road from the main entrance -plenty of eating options inside and a 5min walk to the bus station where both local and tourist buses pick up passengers. Kyoto station has many eating and drinking options and if you walk straight through the station you emerge in the shopping district for fast food options and other bars and restaurants

Mixed feelings on our family’s stay. Firstly, the positives… 1. It’s located right across the street from the Kyoto train station, which is great for both accessibility and food, as there are many good options within the train station. There is a 7eleven within 30s walk and it’s also a short walk (6-7 mins) from Aeon Mall. 2. As an Accor member, there were free drinks at the reception area (eg. coffee, hot chocolate etc). 3. WiFi was solid throughout our stay. The negatives… 1. Appreciate that ibis is not intended as a luxury brand, but the hotel was very basic for the price paid. 2. Room was very small, our family was stumbling over each other every day due to limited space. 3. Other than shower gel/shampoo. Amenities need to be collected from the boxes at reception. 4. Cleaner didn’t top up tissue on second day. When we asked for more, we were told it’s not possible as room service is provided by a 3rd party. Overall mixed feelings.

We stayed at IBIS Styles Kyoto Station for a couple of days, and its location could not be better—it’s right across the street from Kyoto Station, making it incredibly convenient. The room was clean and came with a hot pot and a small fridge. There are three room sizes: 11, 14, and 17 m² (possibly more types). A microwave as well as an ice machine is available in the lobby. While tea bags are provided as a free amenity, coffee is not—there are no complimentary pouches, and guests must purchase coffee from a machine for JPY 300 per cup. Other free amenities, such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, razors, and combs, can be picked up at the lobby. According to the hotel's information sheet, rooms are cleaned every third day, but fresh towels were provided daily. The only downside to our stay was an issue with our reservation and the front desk staff. When booking, we were promised a room upgrade, but upon check-in, the staff told us that all rooms were the same size and an upgrade was not possible. After some back-and-forth, we eventually received the upgrade, but we felt misled, which was disappointing and cost the hotel a star in our rating. Overall, it was a nice stay, with the biggest highlight being the hotel's unbeatable proximity to Kyoto Station.
