Dhawa Yura Kyoto

The hotel is close to the Gion area of Kyoto which is one of the older more traditional areas and where you may see a Geiko (they don't have Geishas in Kyoto) going between her appointments in the early evening. It's a popular area so expect lots of people. The hotel is also very close to Sanjo Keihan station which is handy for getting to other parts of the city and there are also bus stops that mean you get to most places. That said Kyoto is walkable and you can get to most of the sights in about a 40 minute walk. Restaurants get busy though so think about booking somewhere.

Interior, deco, atmosphere were nice. Clean Shower is nice, bed is comfortable. Love the coffee tea resting area on the lobby level.

The staff assistance with every question or request was very kind and pleasant. The spa and treatments we ordered were exceptional and brought us back to strength. Even a special treatment for kids was great! The amazing restaurant at the hotel has a rich tasty breakfast and was very comfortable. A coffee machine was extra nice in the room. Thank you for helping us feel at home.

Excellent service and very helpful staff, brilliantly clean, excellent rooms. We stayed in a Premier Twin Room, the beds were super comfortable and very large and you could choose pillows, the room was perfectly clean and there was daily cleaning service. We were surprised by how large the room was and it had a really cute resting space by the window. Great blackout curtain for those who need it. The bathroom was large with a huge shower. Overall one of the best room experiences we've had in a very long time.

The staff at the hotel were helpful and welcoming. The hotel itself inside has an excellent design and makes it feel premium. The location is pretty good, never too far from main parts of Gion and also the shopping parts like Teremachi and Nishiki market. The Sanjo station seconds away can get you most places - even to our next hotel in Osaka. The shower in the room was excellent - a rainfall type shower but directly from the ceiling. Finally the bed - probably the most comfortable and largest bed we have ever slept on. The bedsheets were so smooth, and the mattress cushioned us perfectly. It was great to lie down after a long day exploring.
