It is close to the Kyoto Station, easy access to trains, metro and bus. The onsen is small compare to the hotel size but better than none. Dinning area always packed with people and need to queue up to be seated and for the food. More western option for breakfast would be perfect.

Hotel Elcient is located across from the East exit of Kyoto station. The location is so convenient with lots of shopping, dining and tourist sites close by. Its so easy to get around Kyoto with it's location so close to Kyoto station (once you familiarize yourself to the station). Make sure to spend time at Kyoto Station as it's so beautiful with rooftop garden, views, restaurants, shopping, light shows etc. The rooms are clean, spacious (for Japan standards) and have great amenties. The onsen is excellent and the breakfast buffet is plentiful with both Japanese and Western options. The staff are hard working and very friendly. I highly recommend this hotel.

Very clean and quiet. Nice place to rest your head while you’re not doubt getting 30,000 steps trying to walk all the temples around the area. Gets the job done and is very simple. I couldn’t figure out how to work the fan in the bathroom so I had to open the window and do some funny business with the fan in the room but overall its a great place to rest your head for the night.
