Kyoto Brighton Hotel is a hidden gem. It's outside of the city center (near the old Imperial Palace) but it's only 15 minutes from the city center and outstanding for the price. Staff is super and breakfast always great. Rooms are good size and clean. I always stay here when I visit Kyoto.

As too often in Japan, stairs from floors are locked; I.e. you must use elevator to go down or up. This is a real safety hazard.
