Exceptional
Pros:

- the staff were very friendly and helpful
- the place was kept very clean
- the location was great, close to the centre but not so much that it was noisy (a great reprieve from hustle and bustle)
- great restaurants and cafes surround it
- I found the bed to be very comfortable, because of my bad jet lag I spent many hours awake but very cosy in this bed
- The rooms are designed very well

Cons:

I liked everything

Hotel centrale con bellissima atmosfera
Pros:

Camere spaziose e curatissime, posizione centrale e comoda sia per spostamenti in metro che per passeggiate a Gion e Pontocho, staff sempre molto disponibile e professionale

Cons:

Non c’è ristorazione quindi la colazione e’ un vassoio uguale per tutti, non vale la pena includerla anche perché a piedi si raggiungono Starbucks, 7eleven e una caffetteria molto carina, oltre al McDonald accanto all’hotel

Je conseille pour 3-4j max pas plus.
Pros:

Chambre agréable, bon emplacement, bon wifi, personnel très gentil.
Eau, thé, café disponible H24 proche réception

Cons:

Menage fait que tous les 3-4 jours, pas de place pour sécher les serviettes et avec des valises, la chambre peut vite être petite.
Petit dej trés décevant.

Un super hôtel pour découvrir Kyoto, nous avons adoré !
Pros:

Nous avons tout apprécié lors de notre séjour.
L’hôtel Legasta est super confortable, et très bien placé. Nous avons pu faire plein de choses à pieds.
Le personnel est très gentil. Et il y a un bar avec boisson chaude et froide à disposition tous les jours, c’est top !

Pros:

Camera stupenda e spaziosa dal look giapponese dotata di ogni comfort. Esteticamente impeccabile per vivere un'esperienza giapponese. Personale molto cordiale. Bella struttura comodissima alla metro (qualche minuto) e al centro/zona storica a piedi.

Cons:

La colazione è molto basica e standard, solitamente danno un uovo strapazzato col pane e mini croassant dolce o mini acai bowl. Non consiglio di prederla in struttura.

Chiamato il Giappone di altri tempi. Lento delicato come un fiume.
Pros:

Camera molto bella con letti affiancati e anche molto grande. Doccia stupenda.

Cons:

Non rifanno i letti e non cambiano la biancheria. La camera da sottoterra e quindi alla fine rimaneva un odore di muffa.
