A must stay in Kyoto. Hotel is located right on the river in a central area that’s easy to walk to restaurants and shops. They served a traditional Japanese breakfast and even accommodated my vegan diet. The hotel is basic, no amenities, but the room and bathroom were quite large. We had a great experience.

Hotel Alza is a lovely boutique hotel in a great location in Gion. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The room size is very generous for Japanese standards and the amenities ( like micro bubble bath ) are super enjoyable. 2 things to improve: the breakfast is very limited in choice and more like a prepacked version rather than a lovely food option. We had to eat it in our room because dining area downstairs is too limited to cater for all guests. Also, for what we paid I would have expected an English language channel on TV or at least the possibility to connect to Netflix. Otherwise, we had a nice stay. Thank you 😊

Wonderful hotel in Kyoto is
Really surprised by the spacious, wonderful room at this hotel. It was double the size of most hotel rooms I’ve stayed at all over Japan and the shower/bathtub was just unbelievable. They definitely had a lot of switches for all the accessories and lights for the room but that’s how much each room has in terms of amenities and convenience. The location couldn’t be any better in Kyoto and the staff was great. They even helped me get a reservation at a restaurant that I wanted to visit. A+++

Outstanding in total. Beautifully appointed rooms with every amenity you could imagine. Staff was outstanding. We opted for daily breakfast option that was brought to our suite every morning. Close to shops, busses and trains. Lots of great restaurants within walking distance as well as historical sites. We highly recommend.

Hotel Alza was so well located near the train station and walking distance to lots of bars, restaurants, areas like Pontocho Alley and Gion district and Nishi Market. The beds were super comfortable by Western standards, the room was huge in space and well stocked. I loved my city view Double room because it had a cute seating area around a little tea set table couch. I would definitely stay here again!

The thermostat automatically readjusts to 26 Celcius after a few hours. This wasn't very pleasant since it was sweltering and humid in Osaka and every night I would wake up sweaty and have to get up and bump it back down to 24 degrees. The nightly rate here wasn't cheap and I'm annoyed I couldn't control the room temperature where I needed it.
