Hotel Sotetsu Fresa Inn di Kyoto

This hotel is AMAZING! The design is so cool and modern with a touch of the traditional japanese vibe. Very well located and block away from the metro station that is near Yasaka Pagoda area. Amenities are good since you can pick them up in the lobby whenever you need them. Nice public areas and with a 7/11 on the first floor!!! Do I need to say more? 10/10

Wonderful location no matter for taking public transportation or driving (3 parking spaces in front of hotel only but it is easy to find other parking nearby). Actually the location is not far from some historical sites/sightseeing places. Excellent Japanese breakfast and the environment is enjoyable. Staffs are helpful and friendly. The room is not big but already good enough. It is clean and comfortable. The experience gave me a good impression of Tokyu stay. I will try other hotels under same group in next trip.

Terletak di tengah-tengah stesen Kyoto, Ala Hotel Kyoto menawarkan oasis yang tenang di tengah-tengah pemandangan bandar yang sibuk, dengan akses mudah ke pelbagai tarikan pelancong dan hidangan masakan. Terletak di sepanjang jalan yang meriah yang dihiasi dengan restoran daging lembu yang lazat dan bersebelahan dengan kedai ubat 24 jam yang menawarkan harga yang kompetitif untuk kosmetik dan ubat-ubatan, lokasi hotel menjanjikan kemudahan dan menyelami budaya tempatan. Sebuah penubuhan yang agak baru, Ala Hotel Kyoto menawarkan salah satu onsen luar terbaik yang pernah saya temui dalam perjalanan saya. Terletak di tingkat 10, onsen ini disertai dengan ruang istirahat zen yang tenang, sesuai untuk berehat selepas berendam atau menunggu penyiapan pakaian. Walaupun perkhidmatan dobi adalah percuma, tetamu harus ambil perhatian bahawa detergen tidak disediakan. Walaupun makanan ringan percuma tidak ada, kemudahan onsen yang luas dan suasana tenang mengimbangi pengawasan tersebut. Walau bagaimanapun, perlu dinyatakan bahawa waktu operasi onsen adalah agak terhad, ditutup pada pukul 11 ​​malam setiap malam, dengan hanya dua pengering rambut tersedia. Apabila memasuki bilik, saya terkejut dengan keluasannya—cukup untuk memuatkan tiga bagasi dengan selesa. Kemuncaknya, sudah pasti, adalah tab mandi yang memberikan pemandangan persekitaran hotel yang menakjubkan, sesuai untuk berendam dalam keindahan matahari terbit atau terbenam. Lengkap dengan akses kepada YouTube dan Netflix, bilik ini menyediakan banyak pilihan hiburan. Untuk hidangan yang menyenangkan, nikmati aiskrim hidangan lembut dari kafe bersebelahan dengan hotel—kesimpulan yang ideal untuk hari penerokaan. Katil memancarkan keselesaan, manakala penambahan sofa berhampiran pintu masuk menyediakan tempat yang selesa untuk berehat tanpa mengotorkan peralatan tempat tidur dengan pakaian luar. Secara keseluruhannya, walaupun Ala Hotel Kyoto mungkin kekurangan kemudahan tertentu, penginapannya yang luas, lokasi yang strategik dan harga yang berpatutan menjadikannya pilihan yang menonjol untuk pelancong yang mencari ketenangan dan kemudahan dalam ukuran yang sama.

Very near to Koyto station, only need 7 mins walk. There are a lot of restaurants, shops, malls, a supermarket in the station. Staff are nice and helpful. There is self laundry service inside the hotel. We shall visit again next time.

Very clean, pleasant. Best part by far: unlimited free use of their two onsen public baths (men’s & women’s alternate daily—look for blue flag for men, red for women) each with shower area, hot bath, warm bath with jets. Upstairs cold bath, sauna with TV, and outdoor bath. Silly me couldn’t open door and thought bath was shut -forgot they slide like a barn door! Wash first in the station-bring nothing in with you, baskets in changing area and lock box do room key before entryway. Baths open 6 am to 11 pm. Great after long day sightseeing. Ryokan provides bathrobes and obi sash, slippers and towels in your room. Quintessential Japanese guest rooms with tatami rice straw mats, futon, and cushion for low table. Hot pot in room for the complimentary green tea and sweet. Staff very friendly and helpful. Massages reservations available after 1 PM to 9. $60/hour. M Checkout 7-10. Cool little neighborhood. 15 minute walk to Kyoto station. Walking distance to UNESCO Toji Temple and several other temples. Easy to catch bus nearby.

Lovely clean hotel a short walk (or free shuttle) to kyoto station). All was good. Very fast wifi and comfortable beds. Excellent breakfast either downstairs or in the revolving restaurant. The only oddity was the swimming pool and gym which had restricted usage hours and required payment on top! Was not worth it and even if it was the unusual hours of operation made it unfeasible. Would stay again though unless I really needed the gym and pool.

I defintely choose to come back this hotel. It is located at a peacful street even thought its the main str, many restaurants, convenience stores nearby. The hotel is clean, full of amenities, and they have public bath opens early morning till late nite. The room is bigger than i thought, but a tiny bathroom which is fine for us ~ :) Staffs are friendly . Thanks
