KANSEI KYOTOHACHIJO

The Kansei hotel is located within a 5 min walk from the Kyoto Station east exit. There's no restaurant or breakfast in this hotel, but thanks to its central location, there's a lot of great food options in walking distance. You can fill your water bottle, grab a (paid) snack or do some work in the lobby though. The rooms are not too large, which is common in Japan. The main thing missing due to the lack of space is a wardrobe. As the hotel is quite new, the furniture and bathroom are in great condition and the Wi-Fi and TV services offered are modern. Although the hotel is mostly no-frills, the front staff is very friendly and helpful. They offer TA-Q-BIN for sending your luggage to other cities / hotels without having to carry them on public transport. I stayed at Kansei Kyoto for 6 nights and would highly recommend it.
