Daiwa Roynet Hotel Kyoto Shijo Karasuma

This was my first stay. It’s very close to Exit 5 of Shijo Station. However, there are stairs, so guests with large suitcases should be careful. The amenities are available in the lobby and you can choose what you need; the drip coffee and bath salts were especially helpful. There was also complimentary water in the fridge, which was an unexpected and pleasant surprise. The breakfast curry was delicious, and there were also obanzai dishes. Everything was very tasty. I’d like to stay again!

I stayed one night in the Ladies Twin room.It’s a 1-minute walk from Shijo Subway Station, about a 1-minute walk to the bus stop for Gion, and there’s a convenience store next door, so access for sightseeing in Kyoto was excellent.The room was reasonably spacious, and the bathroom has a separate washing area, making it very comfortable to relax.In particular, the Ladies Twin room comes with amenities such as a ReFa curling iron and hair dryer, a ReFa shower head, and Panasonic steamers (including a garment steamer), which was truly relaxing both physically and mentally.However, during my stay I was quite bothered by construction noise from an upper floor. In addition, there was road paving work in front of the Hotel, and the noise was significant.I’ll assume I was just unlucky with the timing.Other than that, everything was fine, and it’s a Hotel I’d like to visit again when traveling to Kyoto.
