I had a wonderful time at Kanra. The hotel was very comfortable and tasteful. If I come to Kyoto again. I have no doubt to stay there. We spent four nights and really enjoyed our stay. Location is good too, 1 min walk from Gojo station. What I loved the most was the breakfast buffet. It was amazing.

the breakfast buffet was a balanced mix of eastern and western breakfast foods. Everything was fresh and tasty. As for the room, the room I booked had a shower with poor water pressure and the water temperature would change without touching the knob. One of the sinks was also experiencing the same problem. We notified staff who switched us to another room (same type of room) right away and we no longer experienced the water pressure/temperature problem anymore. 10/10 breakfast and 10/10 customer service
