Hotel Keihan Kyoto Hachijoguchi

“Stylish hotel, but rooms and bathroom are small”

The room and the hotel public areas were stylish. The room itself was small and had no wardrobe or drawers space. It did have large twin beds and the pillow and bed itself were comfortable. The bathroom was also small but it did have a gorgeous and unusual sink. The breakfast buffet had a variety of Japanese and western dishes. It got very busy from about 7-8am. The onsen baths were not that appealing – certainly not as good as some of the others I have experienced.

It was located at a very convenient walking distance from Kyoto Station. Had good choice of eating options and convenience stores nearby. Was easy access from Bus stops connecting to main attractions in and around Kyoto. Staff were friendly and accommodating, rooms were very well appointed and spacious. Amenities were good. The breakfast spread was elaborate but repetitive. The stay was comfortable and can be repeated.

The hotel had a great location near Kyoto train station. The room was good size but narrow so there was almost no space between the beds, and there wasn't nightstands. There weren't any closets. There was a separate toilet with a sink and a bath area. The buffet breakfast was splendid and had Western and Japanese items: ham, fish, hot dogs, chicken, pork, shrimps, croissants and other pastries, corn/onion/minestrone/miso soup, fresh and canned fruits (including lychees), fresh and roasted vegetables, yogurt, tea/coffee/soft drinks, and many more. The hotel provides tea and sugar (there is a kettle in the room), toothbrushes with toothpaste, razors, facial cleansers, etc. There were free tiny (one-bite) ice-cream treats. You can also buy drinks and normal size ice cream in the lobby. Unfortunately, people on the front desk don't speak English.

“Fair quality Hotel”

Stayed two nights at the Hotel Keihan Kyoto Hachijoguchi. The location is idea for travellers arriving by Shinkansen. Just a short walk. Lots of convenience stores and restaurants close by.

Stayed two nights at the Hotel Keihan Kyoto Hachijoguchi. The location is idea for travellers arriving by Shinkansen. Just a short walk. Lots of convenience stores and restaurants close by. Our room was bigger than many in Japan. Do not be deceived by the pictures, the rooms are not Western sized. But for our 3 days, it was good. Bedding clean, beds on the firm side with multiple pillows. Lots of electrical plugs for recharging phones and devices. No problems overall. Our room rate included the buffet breakfast. Which was hit and miss. At 7am when the tour guests ate, the food was cold and the wait long. By 8am the crowd had cleared out and the food was hot. There are food items for all. Both Western and Japanese. No complaints from us but many from the US tourists. The public onsen (both indoor and out) was super clean and delightfully hot. A perk of visiting Japanese. Highly recommend trying it out, please follow the ritualized washing prior to submerging. The only negative for this hotel was the WiFi. Slow and we were unable to stream. No English channels so the slow WiFi was problematic. Would I recommend this hotel...definitely. At CAD$160/night, including breakfast for 2 people daily, it was reasonable and of good quality.
