HOTEL AMANEK Kyoto Kawaramachi Gojo

Our stay at the Amanek Hotel in Kyoto was incredible. The first thing we noticed was the excellent location—you can walk to many places, and there's a train station and bus stops right next to the hotel, so transportation and location are a 10/10. The room was fantastic, very modern, and the furniture even seemed new. The daily breakfast was delicious, and I definitely enjoyed my stay here; I highly recommend it. The staff was very friendly and helpful at all times. The 15-hour flight from Mexico was totally worth it to arrive and relax at this hotel.

The location in more on the east side of the city center which made the walk to Nishiki Market, Kiyomizudera and other nearby attractions quite manageable. This goes without saying for Kyoto, but bring your walking shoes! There's so much to see just east of the river from this hotel. The staff were very friendly and upon request, were able to call us a cab back to Kyoto Station during check-out. There is a 7-11 very close by which made late night snacking incredibly easy! The included breakfast was tasty with both western and Japanese options. We shipped our luggage to this hotel which made things very easy.

The room was small but so well designed with a place for everything. Bed was very comfortable and again so well designed, space under the bed for storage of cases and room to get around. The shower was the best we have had. Great pressure and overhead or hand option. Breakfast was perfect. Breakfast staff were the best. Location was very good.

Newly furbished hotel, the room is super cozy and nice. The bathroom is bigger than is typical in Japan with a great shower. The bed and pillow are super comfy. You have all sorts of amenities and toiletries for free. A 7/11 is right next door and a bus stop in front so location wise it is perfect.

Well what can you say about hotel that supplies free drinks from 5pm to 8pm . It was a bonus. Four different beers, wine, Whisky and Sake. The hotel was reasonably close to a lot of touristy stuff and close to public transport . Kyoto is a very large city so its hard to get the perfect location for a hotel. But if you have legs then its pretty easy to get around. Rooms were average Japanese size and they had a public bath. Overall a great stay, friendly staff and great restaurant's near by. A bit of a walk from the station but my wife and I are in our 60s and we managed the 1.8km walk carrying our back packs , there are buses as well that stop near the hotel.
