Hotel M’S Plus Shijo - Omiya

“Window without view”

Location was extremely great, a few minutes from train stations, with many shops, convenience stores around. Staff was friendly and could speak English very well. Room was basic but smaller than expected, even we had stayed so many hotels in Japan before. There was a window in my room but no actual… more

“Quiet, Clean, and Well-Located”

We stayed at Hotel M for three nights in April 2025. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by a friendly staff member who made the check-in process quick and seamless. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Our particular room lacked natural light, as the window was located behind the bathroom sink mirror. While this might sound like a drawback, the room's quiet and dark environment actually contributed to an excellent night's sleep. Two often-overlooked highlights worth mentioning: the shower had excellent water pressure, and the hotel-provided pajamas were both comfortable and charming. We chose this hotel primarily for its convenient location near Shijo-Omiya Station and easy access to the Hankyu and Randen train lines. The surrounding neighborhood offers a wide range of dining options, along with a Family Mart and a 7-Eleven — perfect for picking up travel essentials or a late-night snack.

“Kyoto is ok for short visit”

Stayed here at the modern Kyoto Mplus for 3 nights and couldn’t wait to move on.

Stayed here at the modern Kyoto Mplus for 3 nights and couldn’t wait to move on. We found the small room really claustrophobic and the bathroom steamed the whole place up, I had to crab walk along the bed to get round it, couldn’t open the window which looked at a dark industrial wall, we never knew what the weather was until we got outside, no breakfast offered and only chargeable coffee , thank goodness for a McDonalds across the road to grab a buttie, wife wasn’t impressed but it was better than nothing, we did the sights by taxi which isn’t cheap but it was a quick way to do it, the hotel is across the road from the tube station but we found getting there by tube was a stressful nightmare, thank god a local took pity on us and guided us or don’t know where we would have ended up, taxi next time, we went to the bamboo forest, it’s right out of the city , expensive in a taxi and underwhelmingly small. Wouldn’t bother it again really. Temples were nice and went to the castle in the middle of Kyoto, about a mile straight down from the hotel is a big old market which is worth a look

“Good location - small hotel!”

This best thing about this hotel is its location, located conveniently near the train and bus stations with 7-11s and Marts less than 50m away! The rooms however, extremely small and not well thought out, no location to store bags (under the bed not an option) therefore no moving space. The interne… more

This best thing about this hotel is its location, located conveniently near the train and bus stations with 7-11s and Marts less than 50m away! The rooms however, extremely small and not well thought out, no location to store bags (under the bed not an option) therefore no moving space. The internet did not work in our room. But for a good location and a bed to sleep in this hotel does the trick! Handy to have the lounge area downstairs with some tables and chairs to escape your shoebox! Staff always extremely helpful - you cannot fault the staff.
