Cuando limpiaron la habitación cogieron un pantalón mio adicional al del pijama, y desde entonces nunca mas lo volví a ver... estoy de vuelta a mi país, y me dijeron que lo buscarían pero me he quedado sin mi pantalon, me toco comprarme uno en una tienda ya que era el único que traia

Great staff and facilities, would stay again!
Pros:

Location was great, a 5-minute walk from Kyoto Station. The staff were super friendly. The rooms were amazing - a separate toilet, bath, and lavatory area, which makes prepping for the day easier and much quicker.

Cons:

The rooms were clean, but would have been more cleaner if we have not found random pieces of hair in the shower area when we checked in on our first day.

Pros:

We stayed at Ala Hotel Kyoto for 3 nights with our family and had a very pleasant stay.

The location is excellent, just minutes from Kyoto Station, with easy access to buses, metro services, and JR lines for exploring Kyoto and beyond.

The rooms are larger than typical Japanese hotel rooms and feel even more spacious thanks to the thoughtful layout and décor. They are well-equipped and comfortable.

The staff are courteous, professional, and extremely helpful. We especially appreciated their assistance in arranging luggage forwarding to our next hotel and explaining the most cost-effective option for our family.

Breakfast was good, and the dining area was spacious, although vegetarian options were limited.

The only downside was that a large seating area in the lobby had been closed abruptly by management. This made the lobby feel crowded, especially with tour groups, and left limited seating causing discomfort to the guests.

Overall, a very good hotel with an excellent location, spacious rooms, and outstanding service.
