    Good geographical location”

    The hotel is located in a prime area. If you don't need to stay at Kyoto Station, you can take a 15-minute bus or subway (or train, I forgot) to the hotel. The hotel is near Omiya, and you can take buses 28, 29, or 71 and get off right in front of the hotel. There are plenty of dining options nearby, with a 7-11 and Family Mart right next door. The hotel is clean, and most hotels in Japan are about that size, which is acceptable for one or two people.

    The staff provided assistance with transportation and various other matters, and they always responded kindly. The breakfast was excellent and there were many options. However, in the room I used, I was slightly bothered by the conversation of the couple in the neighboring room and the sound of water, even though I couldn't hear the content.

    It's a hotel with excellent service!”

    From check-in, the free service of Kyodango 🍡, unlimited manga reading, and the excellent hospitality from the staff and cleaning staff were all great. Above all, the breakfast buffet was wonderfully delicious! ❦ I definitely want to stay at this hotel again.

    Great deal”

    I often stay near this station, and Ark Hotel definitely offers the best balance of cost, location and facilities in my opinion. The breakfast is pretty good as well.
