Agora Kyoto Karasuma

I had an exceptional stay at this hotel, exceeding the city's usual standards. The room was impressively spacious and well laid out, featuring an inside garden that added a zen touch to the ambiance. The bed was remarkably comfortable, and the little tea corner in the room provided a perfect spot to unwind. The bathroom, equipped with a magnificent bathtub, further enhanced the overall experience. In addition to the exceptional room, the hotel's location is superb, with easy access to numerous bus stops and the metro station, making it convenient to explore the city. Situated at the city center, it offers a perfect blend of luxury and accessibility.

The hotel has a spacious room which is quite larger compared to the usual room size in Japan. General ambiance is very nice and fitting to the city. There is a kombini just next to the hotel. Shijo and Karasuma subway stations are within the walking (~5mins) distance.

Beautiful hotel overall. Good size rooms for Japan. Very comfortable beds, and easy to request another pillow. Like the separate shower/toilet. Fridge was useful, and tea/coffee facilities in the room were a bonus. Hotel was kept clean throughout our stay. You can request a room clean also when you would like. Location is great, less than 10 minutes walk to the station, and 15 minutes to the main centre markets. Bus routes to the main attractions like Arashima are within 5 minutes walk. Free refreshments in the foyer were a bonus; tea and cold drinks available 24hrs a day, and bread with coffee available in the morning a nice touch.

We loved our suite which was quiet and comfortable. The hotel is in a great area for exploring Kyoto - walking distance to the shops, a lot of places of interest, lots of great restaurants and only a short taxi ride to the railway station.
