The eph Kyoto was situated close to the Kyoto Train Station which made it very convenient to taxis, buses, the subway and try bullet trains. What I did not expect was it's zen-like understated beauty and it's quietness. The room was large with a kitchen and washer/drier. The staff was very helpful and friendly. Super experience!

Stayed in a deluxe Hollywood twin room for 4 nights and really enjoyed our time at this hotel. First off, the hotel is not even a 5 minute walk from Kyoto station, which was very convenient for exploring the city. Second, the hotel was off the main road on a small side street, which we loved as it made the area very quiet the whole day. Third, the staff and the room are amazing - the staff were very friendly and helped us with any questions we had. The room and twin beds were big! Also really enjoyed having a mini kitchen and washer/dryer in the room (note: it does take up to 5 hrs for the washer and dryer to complete, but there is multiple laundry mats around the hotel). When we are back in Kyoto, we will be staying here again.

It is out of the way, quiet and close to the train and bus station. Good food plentiful nearby. The room could have used a table and a couple of chairs, and there was a lack of dishes in the kitchen. It's a little quirky, but that's in it's favor after all the western cookie cutter hotels. A strong recommendation to stay here

This property is close to Kyoto Station, which made it very handy to get around and visit the sites in Kyoto. The in-room kitchen and washing machine was very helpful during my stay. Beautiful property and wonderful rooms. In a quiet alleyway which meant no loud road noises at night.
