Great location and easy to find with only a short walk from the station. After spending 2 weeks travelling Japan, Hotel Kuu Kyoto was one of our favourites and we would stay here again without hesitation. We opted in for breakfast which was the right decision as there was a good variety with a mix of Japanese and western options with juices, tea and coffees. There were also options which the chefs would cook on request such as omelettes and french toast. Majority of the staff also spoke English and were so helpful by looking after our luggage before check in and would greet us each time we went past. Also one member of staff was super helpful and although there was a slight language barrier with the help of google translate he went above and beyond to help send our luggage to the next hotel, the following morning I also asked if he could call the next hotel to confirm they would be ok to receive the luggage before our arrival and all went smoothly. Very impressed with our time here and truly wish we had spent longer in Kyoto and at this hotel that the 2 nights we were here.

Location, close to Kyoto station, mall, bus and metro station. A step outside and you are greeted by the the imposing Higashi Hongan ji Temple. Very pretty at night. You can walk around the area quietly at night and it's safe. There are plenty of restaurants nearby. It's hard to pick. The place is always neat and clean. You have option to skip bedsheets change if you're kind of neat freak, environment conscious, OCD like me. The staff are excellent, very helpful. Breakfast options were good sourced locally. The roof deck was pretty though it's only open until 9pm. Its summer so it's hot and humid I didn't enjoy it. It will be nice in spring and fall. The Onsen and sauna was a plus. It's small but if you go on quiet hrs you can enjoy it with only few person around. I love how the hotel is not too big. I feel personally taken care of by the hotel staff. I will stay here again when I get the chance to come and visit Kyoto again.

Great location right across the road from the temple! We chose a twin room and it had plenty of space. The breakfasts were exceptional - everything being made fresh and some things "to order". I picked Hotel Kuu for the onsens and breakfast and wasn't disappointed. The staff are super friendly and have excellent english skills. Its an easy walk from Kyoto station and they were happy to mind our bags while we explored - both before check-in and after check-out. There is also a free tour bus on some days of the week. Would have liked to have stayed longer to enjoy this place even more.

Super close to Shinkansen train station yet across road from a gorgeous shrine so felt like was not in a concrete jungle. Loved the friendly staff, the fabulous Onsen, the cute rooms despite having no view we could still open window & breath some of that fresh Kyoto mountain air. The courtesy tour bus on one of the days was a delightful surprise. Oh and buffet breakie with a view of shrine is so lovely. The ONLY downside is very few vegetarian options on breakie buffet, but this is more a Japan thing than this hotel. All good many places in Kyoto to solve this only issue:)

Terrific location! Right opposite the Higashi Hongan-ji temple which made hotel very easy to find. The onsen (sento) facilities were great. There is a large and small onsen which alternate between days for use between men and women. The larger onsen has a nice outdoor plunge pool as well as a sauna and cold water plunge indoors. Very relaxing after a hard days sightseeing. Rooms were a good size. I was sharing a twin room. Breakfast was very nice with a selection of mostly Japanese food however there were also western style options so you won’t go hungry.
