The room was very spacious, which in Japan is not a given, and it had a washing machine which was great as we were half-way through our two-week trip. The location is great for Gion attractions and quiet, with a great ramen place opposite where we ate twice a great lunch to keep us going.
Great location and the rooms are very comfortable.

Staff was very friendly, location of the hotel is great and especially the rooms are decently big with all amenities you need. I had a perfect stay at this hotel and if I ever come back to kyoto I'm staying at this hotel for sure
Very clean and quiet aparthotel just walking distance to kiyomizu dera. I was impressed with how spacious the suite was. The staff was also very helpful and polite.
Marvelous location and amenities for a simple traveler. Looking for a hotel in Kyoto can be hard because everything is so wonderful. West Japan Kyoto Kiyomizu stands out for its location and tremendous value for money. All hotels should be this good! I will definitely stay here again.
Quiet, large room, close to transport and a short walk to all the great food spots in Pontocho alley and Nishiki Market. Can also walk to Yasaka Shrine and Kiyomisu-Dera. Room had a washing machine but no dryer, there was however a drying rack. Would stay here again. Staff helped us with transferring our luggage and were always helpful.
