Book Hotel is very close to the Kujo subway station with walking distance. Only one station to reach Kyoto station which you can transfer to everywhere. The hotel room was very comfortable & tidy, but lack of hooks for hanging clothes and towels. Staffs are kindly with good smile also the most unique is the decoration of the books located every corner at the hotel.

Room: clean and tidy, spacious for 2 people to stay, spacious bathroom, bed is a bit low (quite close to the floor), pillows are soft (not so supportive for the neck), nice and dark when you close all the curtain Staff: very friendly, can speak good English Amenities: No water or coffee supplied in room (tap water is drinkable), plenty of towels in bathroom with hair dryer, has a vending machine for drinks and laundromat on another floor, plenty of books for you to read (only in Japanese), there is a bar/cafe on the ground floor Location: 3 minutes walk from the nearest metro station (Kujo station), 9 minutes walk from Kyoto station, 2 convenience stores nearby * The building right next to the hotel is under some construction work when I visit. Noises are expected but bearable and this is definitely not the hotel’s fault (saw someone blaming the hotel for this).

Disliked: Staff & service

京都駅から徒歩10分で交通の便は良い。ユニットバスは結構広い。ベッドはかなり低いが気になる程ではない。部屋は全体的に清潔で、特に臭いは感じなかった。料金の安さ(約9000円)を考えるとまあまあ良いほう。ただ、夜11:25頃、突然ノックの音がして、宿泊客が間違ったのだろうと返事もしなかったのに、いきなりドアを開けて従業員らしき女性が入って来た。風呂上がりでパンツ姿の裸で涼んでいたので、呆気に取られたのと裸という状況で声も出なかったが、その女性は表情一つ変えずに中まで来て、事務的に「カードキーの確認に来ました」と言い、机の上にあるカードキーを見て、「確認できたのでよろしいです」と言ってさっさと出て行った。ドアが開いた時の恐怖、それに勝手に侵入するのは従業員と言えども犯罪ではないか、そもそも何でそんな事をするのか等々、翌朝フロントに訴えたら「確認する」とのこと。しかし、預け荷物を取りに昼12時頃戻るもスタッフは居なく、連絡も取れない体制で確認できなかった。ホント、あれは何だったのか。

落ち着く雰囲気がよい

3週間ほど空けて再びお世話になりました。やはり部屋にはコンセプトが設定されていて書籍がおいてあります。詳細を読む時間はありませんでしたが、何となく落ち着く雰囲気をかもし出しています。あえていえば、アメニティとして体を洗うスポンジタオルのようなものがあるといいと思いました。また京都に行く機会があれば利用したいと思います。
