Uber modern and alienating

This hotel is cold and impersonal. The staff is very indifferent. The beds are uncomfortable and the pillows are terrible. It is not particularly clean, and the breakfast is meager and uninspired. I would not recommend this hotel. There are probably much better options in Kyoto.

Liked - Unique design of rooms and common areas. Luggage self storage area is awesome! Strength of shower water pressure was outstanding. Not very fond of very limited breakfast selection. Also mattress does not stay in place if you sit up in bed. Wish there was a little more storage room. Need more towel hanging area.

The hotel is close to the subway/train station and only a few minutes from the Kyoto station, which is very convenient. The rooms are pretty small, so it is not easy to accommodate luggage, but if you travel light, it should be okay. Maybe, because of the small rooms, they have a nice lobby area where you can sit and relax and maybe eat all the snacks from the 7-11 located just on the first floor of the building. They offer a microwave, toaster and water fountains, as well free coffee and tea. We used the washer and dryer, and it was very practical because you can even pay from an app on your phone.

Clean and good location

Great location. The local bus is right outside of the hotel. The train station is about 5-7 min away. There is a 7-Eleven convenient store downstairs & across the street there a a good restaurant. My room was facing the Main Street and I could hear the noise while I slept. I turned on some sleeping music on my Spotify which helped with the noise.

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.
