シュチュエーションの良さ👍
Pros:

京都八条口のヴィアインには宿泊したことがあり
そのイメージで利用しました。
地下鉄からも遠くなくさすが室町に面しているので
普段の人通りも多くお店もたくさんあり楽しめました。
あの街なかでのリーズナブルな金額は助かりました。朝食は和洋と選べるのがまた新鮮でした。

Cons:

ツインでしたが少し狭く感じました。
キャリーバックを置くのにちょっと手間取ってしまった。

Excellent Stay with Thoughtful and Courteous Staff.
Pros:

I had an excellent experience staying at Hotel Kyoto Shijomuromachi. Of the hotels I stayed at during my Japan trip, this was one of the more enjoyable experiences.

The hotel offers comfortable accommodations with rooms that are fairly standard in size for a Japanese business hotel. I stayed in a single room equipped with a private bathroom and individually controlled air conditioning, which made for a comfortable stay.

The hotel also provides several convenient amenities, including coin-operated laundry facilities, a complimentary ice machine, and drink vending machines. These are particularly useful for travellers staying multiple nights.

What really stood out to me was the hospitality of the staff, especially the Japanese housekeeping team. I would like to give a special shout-out to the cleaning staff for being exceptionally courteous, considerate, and professional. I noticed how mindful they were of other hotel guests while carrying out their cleaning duties, making a genuine effort to minimize noise and disruptions. It’s a small detail, but one that I truly appreciated and that reflects their dedication to providing a pleasant experience for everyone.

One thing worth noting is that the hotel’s main entrance is locked later in the evening for security purposes. Be sure to carry your room key with you, as you’ll need it to access the building when returning late.

Lastly, they do accept luggage forward and do offer luggage forward service. However, you will have to scan the QR code and fill out the application yourself and then the front desk will print out the shipping label and ship it out for you. Please be mindful that if you are using the forwarding service, the cut-off time is in the afternoon and some locations take 2 business days to deliver.

Overall, I had a wonderful stay. The friendly and thoughtful staff, comfortable accommodations, and practical amenities made this a very positive experience.

Pros:

Location

Cons:

The room is not at all sound proof and I could hear loud bangs and noises all night. Which affected my stay . Also in the morning the housekeeping staff keep making noises and I could hear them talk from inside my room, which affected my rest. This could improvise . Please look into this matter as what is the point of booking stay if the rest itself is affected.

タイトな旅程ばっちりこなせた、快適ひとり旅!
Pros:

午後3時から5時まで京都で会合があった。ついでに日曜日は滋賀県に出かけたいと思い、駐車場があり、earlyチェックインのできるホテルを探した。
立地も良く計画通りの旅程をこなすことができた。

Cons:

素泊まりだったので、希望としては、館内のどこかに電子レンジが使える設備があればなぁと思った。
駐車スペースが狭く、入庫の時バックミラーが少し当たってしまった。(傷は付かなくてよかった)
あとで、駐車する時の説明書きが壁にあるのに気づいたが、立ち会ってくれた女性のスタッフはそばで
見ていただけで入庫前の注意はなかった。
