Really good and cheap hotel for a solo traveller. The room was just good size for me. Nice big tv. The public bath was great. I went every evening. I send my luggage the morning before check out and they arranged the sending to the next hotel. The luggage was there next day when I checked in. Really close to the station and the bus stops.
I reserved all my acommodations in Kyoto, Tokio and Osaka in APA so it is nice to already know how everything works :) Design of the room is even same. Everything works great.

Kyoto is popular for good reasons - it has lots to offer with numerous shrines, temples, interesting old areas with wonderful architecture and a taste of the old Japan. We did some very enjoyable walking by the river as well as the delightful Philosopher's Path. It also has good connections to other places such as Nara so there is plenty to fill your days. Be aware though that it does get very busy.

Kyoto was our favorite city during our Japan trip.
Kyoto was our favorite city during our Japan trip.
We were also in Tokio, , Hakone, Osaka, Hiroshima and Kanazawa.
I would return to every city besides Osaka (not our vibe, too western, too dirty) and besides Kanazawa (Nice city with old Samurai buildings, but not much to see there)
Kyoto stood above the rest, even above our second favorite Tokio.
It was the perfect mix of traditional, modern and very high qualitiy of living (just see the train station, it's astonishing)

We did the free walking tour so we got to see many interesting sites and touristic attractions already within the first day. Arashimjana bamboo forrest was very busy. We liked the Toji market, near station Toji there is also a 5 story pagode. Also good visit was by train to Fushimi Inari

Kyoto is a gem.
Kyoto is a gem. If you like cities, and love art, but not crowds then Kyoto is for you. There are great places to eat, relax and learn about Japanese history, art and culture. Definitely go there and stay longer than you think. Everyone who I spoke with before going to Japan told me they wished they spent more time in Kyoto and I get it! Glad I listened and we stayed for half of our time in Japan!
Visit Toji Temple, get some hand made soba and udon, walk Philosophers Path, see temples and shrines, go to museums and do something with swords! Don't forget the bamboo forest, try the banana sesame smoothie. We got very lucky and ended up seeing the Murakami exhibit which was a completely awesome surprise as it had just opened!
It's super easy to get around. If you have. JR pass use it! Pair it with an IC card (pasmo or welcome suica or suica, etc.) and I recommend using the local busses also. You can get around faster or as fast and taxis are much more expensive.
Also we used Kyoto to visit Hiroshima and Osaka. Super easy to get to both with a JR pass. We didn't make it to Nara, though it was also close.
Hope this helps and hops you have a great time!

Kyoto on 1st presentation is a modern,, not particularly attractive, city. However, the historic areas, particularly the gardens, are well worth seeking out. It is also interesting to see a contemporary city that is not overwhelming Western. Kyoto has its own character.

Kyoto is incredible if you're into either art, gastronomy, nature, history. The architecture wether it be land marks or merely quiet neighborhoods is a dream. As a faun and flaura enthusiast , I could've stayed weeks. Transportation was simple and the city is also close to breathtaking natural beauties. The restaurants were great (I recommend going on Japanese foodie blogs and using Google translate). We adored Kyoto!
Staffs were friendly and check-in instructions were clear, do note that if you are checking-in before the check-in time, luggages needs to be stored in the guest centre near kyoto station instead. But there's a free luggage delivery service to the hotel from the guest centre. Rooms were spotless clean and comfortable. Good size as well. It's super convenient to have a washer, dryer in the toilet is just the best thing. All clothes gets dried in a matter of hours. There are also several 24 hours convenience stores around as well.
I have been going back to Japan for many years. I have stayed in many hotels, ryokans, rental apartments and guesthouses. But Kyoto Takasegawa Bettei is in a completely different league. The quality of service is the best I have recived so far. The cedar bath is fantastic, but as if you like there is a famous public bath 5 min walk away. There are plenty of cafes in the area, where vegetarians will also find something for themselves. The subway and buses are also a few minutes away. Definitely recommended.
The staff is excellent. They are very helpful and attentive. They always greeted us when we would leave the hotel and come back. Very modern and clean facility. The breakfast was the star of the show. The hotel breakfast may have been one of the best meals we have ate on this Japan trip and we have been to Japan multiple times before. We at there twice in 3 days. There is a also a very good grocery store underneath the hotel. This hotel is great for families also. We highly recommend this hotel.
we stayed for my birthday in this amazing place , the best experience we ever had in an “hotel” better than 5 stars hotels . Completely equipped, amazingly clean and the best quality everywhere around the house . Shin and Shohei were amazing with us , gave us loads of recommendations and help us in everything,what a lovely people . Dinner and breakfast was absolutely gorgeous and authentic Japanese food , we were speechless .
The garden was a magical space , that we enjoyed very much .
The hotel was located at the prime location within Kyoto’s Gion. The spaces were impeccably clean and our room was very comfortable. It was also nicely decorated, in Japanese style. The hotel has an onsen, which is quite a relaxing experience after a long day of walking and exploring Kyoto. However, the absolute best part about our stay was very attentive staff who put efforts to ensure our luggages reach us at our upcoming destination. We would love to stay here again.
If you want a comfortable luxury stay then this is the best hotel in Kyoto.
Spacious rooms, great hospitality, amazing bathroom & beautiful interior. The staff were very helpful & made it easy getting taxis & arranging & calling kimono rental shops.
But best of all was the spa & the private onset. As a man with tattoos I was paranoid but it was amazing I got to use the facilities & the private onset was like something out of a manga.
Worth every penny
The hotel is in walking distance from Kyoto Station and just a 15 minute walk away from Gion. There are some bus stops nearby from where you can easily reach all the sightseeing spots around Kyoto. The breakfast was nothing fancy but good and the free coffee and softdrink bar is definitely a plus. One of the best things was the happy hour! It was super nice to round off the day with free drinks in the lobby and chat with some of the other guests :)
This team exceeded my expectations. What a gorgeous hotel, lobby and room. We loved our stay in the comfort room. Honestly; this was our best stay during our 14-day holiday in Japan. The metro station is within 100 meters from te hotel and the nice team at Rakuro arranged a bike-rental for us, they brought us the bikes at the hotel. Many thanks for the nice team, making our stay the best! We hope to return some day.
The location is perfect. Hotel Kuu is so close to everything. 10 minutes walk to Kyoto Station. 2 minutes walk to the nearest bus stop. Lots of restaurants nearby. The best part is the public bath. It was so relaxing to soak yourself in the hot water after a long day's walk. The outside pool is built of volcanic rocks from Mountain Fuji. That water is magic. It makes your skin so smooth.
Everything was amazing. The whole hotel looks new and clean. Breakfast had good choices and everything we tried were delicious. Staff can speak english. Bathroom was the best I have seen in a hotel. Strategic location since the subway station is literally just beside the hotel.
The hotel is located in a quiet residential area. Many amenities including an amenities station at the lobby which is really neat. Best of all we love the breakfast buffet and quality/ variety they have. We ended up having breakfast there everyday during our stay.
Hands down! One of the best hotels I've ever been, staff are super nice and helpful, very clean, location about 7 minutes walk from Nijo station, very minimalist decor and you can even do laundry (300 ¥ washing m. 100 ¥ drying machine for 30 minutes)
Probably one of the best hotels I’ve stayed at. It’s right across Kyoto Station, the room I got has great space. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is clean. The breakfast was generally okay though I wish they would put allergy labels on them.
Great value for money. One of the best 4-star hotels we've ever stayed. Excellent services, very clean, polite staff, nice facilities. Good location next to the train station. In total a very comfortable experience in the beautiful city of Kyoto.
staff was very polite and the hotel was super clean! definitely the best stay we had while in Japan! would stay here all of the time if I could. a short walk to the station and to the Main Street where all of the shops and stores are.
Very quiet even though it was located on a main street. Super near Gion and a subway station 3 min walk from the hotel. Convenience store below the hotel.
The room's style reminds of a Ryokan. Beds are very comfy.
Location is the best of this hotel. It is close to the station, and Kyoto has a great train coverage. If you are looking for a place where you'll only sleep after a long day of walk, it is a good place.
The perfect guest house (more than 5 stars hotel)! Best guest house I've never experienced. I stayed for two nights and had a peaceful time. Thank you so much! :)
The best deal for a hotel
