3 nights in Kyoto

nice hotel, not very far from the centre and very close to the public transportation. Pretty quiet. The worst thing it does not allow you to store the luggage there and you have to go find another place and pay for it. Check-in is pretty late - 4 pm, so you have to go around somewhere before that. We were told to go to the central station and it is not fun going around with 2 suitcases and then take them back when you want to check-in.

Overall was okay. Staying on the bottom level could be annoying at night due to noise level of others (singing or tapping walls). Hotel staff was okay, only really spoke when asking for tax payment (which couldn’t be paid by card, and change could not be given for larger amounts of cash). The room itself was cozy and modern.

Nice hotel, but confusing location and check-in.

We really enjoyed the hotel overall, but the check-in was ridiculously complicated. This hotel needs to fix its name listing. There is a Japaning Hotel Omiya, Japning Hotel Central Omiya, and some other Japaning Hotels all in the same area. The two I listed were 2-3 blocks from each other and it was not clear which hotel was the hotel we booked. The buildings and check in process was the same, but the buildings were run by different companies. We accidentally went to the wrong building because our Hotels.com email told us we had booked for "Grand Japaning Hotel Omiya". When we went to the building with this sign, there was no there was a pin passcode and no attendant available during the hours when there were supposed to be attendants. There was a sign saying we should call, and the telephone was missing. There was just a little phone cord in the box where the telephone should have been. I could only imagine what would have happened if I didn't have a functioning phone. Luckily, my phone did work internationally. For a very expensive rate, I spoke to a phone operator for several minutes from the proper hotel. He was able to help me figure things out and I was able to make my way to the proper hotel. All in all, the hotel we stayed in was great and the concept was nice, but we were not impressed with the check-in instructions or building locations.

Fantastic hotel definetly buck for bang. Close to the bus terminal and subway or a short walk to the city center. However you probably won't see a staff member there as it's all self service and check in, but it's extremely easy to use. Would stay again.

Interesting experience. The check-in process is purely electronic. You enter a code at the building, go in to the front desk and enter a confirmation code on an iPad, which then assigns a room number and a door code to you. Very convenient as you don’t have to carry a key card around and you don’t have to wait to be served by a hotel staff. The only bone in the egg I want to pick is that the room table was a little dusty when we entered. You also have to be prepared to clean up the room and take out your own garbage because there is no room cleaning service during your stay.
