Kyoto Hot Spring Hatoya Zuihoukaku Hotel

Nice location, 5 minutes walk from Kyoto station. We had a budget level room in the first night. The hotel has a really nice Onsen Bath which is included in the room rate. All rooms have individual air condition. Windows to the street have an inside “door” with traditional look, which makes it look like a ryokan room. All amenities are in the bathroom, even water kettle and tea are available at the room.

Budget level room is very tiny. It’s difficult to hang the clothes, no luggage storage. However, the room has the same bathroom as bigger rooms.

So far this is among the biggest room we get during our stay in Japan Very convenient place about 5mins away from JR kyoto station Everything is clean, public bath is big Nearby there is 7 eleven & lawson Best staff services among our stay in Japan Overall is very nice & pleasant stay

Be aware on the tax charges as booking.com juz highlighted i need to pay 150yen per person for hot spring tax, but i ended up paying 1440 yen for the total tax, its ok for me but this is definitely not a + sign

In house onsen was convenient and good. Indoor and outdoor available. There is 100yen leg massage equipment and washing machine in same area too! Central location and 5mins walk from Osaka train station and bus terminal only

Japanese breakfast was good but they change alternate days, 2 kinds only. Became boring after 3 days eating same food

Situated near to main railway station, easy walk. This is a very good hotel for a western traveller to get an experience of Japan. Breafast was japanese, and of course very different from what we eat at Europe. But this is the idea of travelling: you see something else, and though I did not always know what I was eating, and started to like it more and more. So in the fifth morning I think this was already part of me. Onsen was an extra, which completed the experience.

Maybe I could say there was sometimes some little noice from the street, but during the nights very calm city, and one can sleep well. Even though your windows are towards the street.

The staff was able to speak English quite well, which was a kindness and very helpful to us. The location was close to Kyoto Station and convenient to restaurants in the area. There was a convenience store close by. The rooms had a small refrigerator. The bathrooms had ample space for two people. There were storage closets we were able to use. Each room had a table and chairs for eating, school work, etc. We used the laundry facilities and found them to be reasonably priced and convenient.

Recycling facilities were only available near the vending machines on certain floors. We wish these had been available on every floor. There was a large school group that arrive on our second day and we had to move rooms to accommodate them. The hotel staff was very apologetic and moved all our bags for us into the new rooms, making it fairly seamless. Still, one of our party members wasn't feeling well and would have preferred to have the room available to sleep that day.

As an interior designer, I was very impressed with the level and quality of the hotel decor. The Japanese style room we selected gave us the feeling of a traditional ryokan while in a more modern hotel environment. The Mineral Onsen was delightful, as was the staff, who were a tremendous help to me in finding my way around and navigating the transportation system. They even booked me a massage in my room on an hours notice and made me an appointment to rent my Geisha Kimono for a day in Gion, which I highly recommend for all female visitors.

The only thing I would have loved was the option of room service. Other than that everything was perfect, and the café downstairs was good for breakfast in a pinch.

Very good location. Enjoyed the Onsen.

I informed the property that I was allergic to dust prior to checking in . They replied that they would clean room. But the vent in the bathroom and AC unit had accumulation of dust . Also, it is very close to the Kyoto station but it would help with directions to property if they could list which exit to take once you get off the train . We spent a little of time navigating our way out of the Kyoto station .

loved the large hot public baths on the premises. They were very clean with lots of available products to use, hair dryer, etc. The staff were very kind and attentive. They helped us book a sight seeing taxi and a nice restaurant one evening. Finally, the breakfasts were incredible and authentic, beautifully presented.

The hotel is within easy walking distance to Kyoto Station but I wished we were closer to Gion or another neighborhood with more sight seeing. I found Kyoto difficult to navigate in the short amount of time we were there and there is not a lot within walking distance.

Amazing!!! We stayed in the annex room overlooking the waterfall and it was fantastic. There was a share bathroom which was fine as you only needed it for the toilet. The hot springs were out of this world and the whole stay was so relaxing and peaceful especially after being in Tokyo and even Kyoto. Loved the dinner and breakfast and staff were all beautiful and friendly. Would highly recommend!!

Absolutely nothing!

the location of this hotel is super. you can really walk in a few minutes from JR station to it. it's very easy to transport, esp when you want to visit Nara or other places by JR train

there were some dust on the carpet around the foot of the bed area. Normally I won't mind, but it's close to the tatami area, where my kid sleeps. So, cleanness of the room needs to be improved.
