Stay here!

This was by far the best choice of places to stay. Price was right. Place was extremely clean. Bathroom was fantastic and the shower was hot and great water pressure. So relaxing after walking 20,000 steps in Kyoto.

It’s my second visit to this hotel and I re-booked it for a reason. Its convenient location as well as modern clean and practical facilities make it the best and easiest stay for tourists. It even has accessibility for disabled people. My mother is 75 and has trouble walking and the hotel was the best thing for her to recover after exploring Kyoto. 10/10

7-eleven under the hotel, with a Fresco across the intersection, and a 24-hour tonkatsu sit down restaurant at the other corner. 14 minute walk to Nishiki Market, 1 hour transit to Monkey Park or Bamboo Forest. Free coffee and miso soup in the lounge area of the hotel. They expect you to eat and drink outside food stuff in this area instead of your room, because any stains you leave in the suite will have a cleaning charge. A place to lock your luggage with a physical Suica card if you got there before your check-in time. Room was fine for a travelling couple like us. Giant letters "Hotel Tavinos" running down the side of their building made it easy to find, haha!

Perfect for a minimal stay covering the basics. The room was nice and dark and clean. My only issue was with the pillow which was slightly uncomfortable for me as I prefer a soft pillow and am not accustomed to the grain filled style pillows in Japan. Otherwise it was an excellent stay. I will be staying here again.

Stay good, just go to a laundry place.

Was a interesting place to stay. Cute. Nice bed, sheets and blanket. Clean. Small sitting space. Not great room lighting. Wish washroom had better space to put your things down. Clean. Far as laundry go's they need 2-3 more driers. I put mine though 3 times and still had to take some out and hang dry it. From what I saw in the laundry room. Its the main reason holding up people getting laundry done.

Meh. Room and decor are cute, but room is dark, stained carpet, dusty. Couldn't get a second pillow on my first night. I'd try another hotel if I ever return to Kyoto.

Great spot for exploring Kyoto. Short walk to the Gion District, plenty of trains and busses stopping outside so a perfect base. Free teas and coffees in the lobbies and small pastries at breakfast. Check in easy and staff relatively friendly. Room was lovely - everything we needed and nice and clean.

The hotel is super convenient and it’s perfect if you’re looking for a place to just sleep after a long day exploring Kyoto! It’s basically a bed and a shower and the daily amenities are collected every day from the lobby area. There’s free drinks and a baked good for free every morning. And there’s a 7 eleven connected to the hotel which is GREAT for late night snacks or breakfast. It also offers luggage forwarding which is super convenient when moving cities. It’s a unique design and very playful and a central location to all our destinations. If you’re looking for a simple place to sleep and get going through out your day, this is the place!

Mattresses were good. The pillows are so uncomfortable. The room ac would warm up and you’d have to turn it off and then on again, ac was really loud too. Tv kept lagging. Enough space for luggage, not much counter space. Connected to a 7/11, laundry on site. Free bite sized croissant or danish for breakfast.

New modern hotel with a fun theme. A nice middle ground between attractions. Walking distance Gion district and a walk plus subway ride to things like the bamboo forest. A light free breakfast is provided which is always a plus. 7-11 is below the hotel which is obviously amazing. Would stay again.

Tavinos was just as expected. I had seen videos of people staying at the place. It has everything you need. Being able to have luggage storage and laundry is super convenient. Only negative thing would be that the dryer takes a long time and maybe filters needed to be cleaned. Which there was a sign to ask staff, just didn’t get a chance to. Honestly, I really don't have anything negative to say.

Cute little property, a bit difficult to find reception because you actually have to go into the building and up the elevator. Rooms were relatively clean with the occasional carpet stains; however they are very dim. The common lounge area is nice, convenient and well stocked.
