The hotel was great! I booked a last minute room for my mom and we were pleased. The staff was super friendly and helpful. They offer happy hour and free ice cream (really good). The atmosphere is great from the entrance and reflected in the room too. It was super clean and it had a window that opened widely. It also had a turntable in the room! Really enjoyable after long and tired days. It has laundry self service. Definitely I will book again if I travel to Kyoto!

One of the coolest hotels I've stayed at!
Hotel She is hands down one of the coolest hotels I've ever stayed at. I ended up paying $93.28 via Hotels.com for two nights here. Upon check-in the staff at the front desk gave me a quick tour, gave me my room key, and then to my surprise offered a vinyl. Each room has a record player and they allow you to bring records from the front desk to your room to jam out during your stay - very awesome perk. Most of the staff spoke English and were able to give local recommendations. The layout of the lobby, bar, ice cream bar, and kitchen are all very cool looking and cozy at the same time. The room was spacious and had pretty cool art / vibes. In general this was an amazing hotel and I highly recommend it. Only downside is it's a bit of a walk to Kyoto Station but it is close to the Kujo Station - so it's not that bad. Check it out!

Don't believe the old review's, it's changed.
This is a nice and refreshing hotel! Sparkling clean, good service, good bar, and very good bed. The staff is friendly and helpful. Be Sure to try the local ramen place, it is better than most. The hotel is located 10min walk from Kyoto station and the road is suitcase friendly. Highly recommended. They are famous for their big baby ice-cream and seems to attract Instagram girls. Be sure to try there homemade coke and I have heard thatthey soon will be serving gin and tonics next to their local ale.

Good place with a curious
It's a nice and clean place for staying with warm and harmonized atmosphere. Shared kitchen and dinning corner that keeps the room clean. Nice to roast your bread and sandwich for your breakfast there. Less than 5 minutes to subway. 460yen taxi from Kyoto station to the hotel, it's worth-wise if you have more than 1 person travelling. BUT, I'm curious that the front desk requested 400yen/head for additional local tax. While, my billing in hotel.com already included a tax item in the break-down. Do we still need to pay additional 400yen/head?

A fun step up from a hostel
Great bargain for the money. Clean, hip, small hotel with a college dorm/hostel vibe--but in a good way. Remarkably quiet rooms and location, only one stop from Kyoto station. Every one of the young staff members was great. Free Handy phone was (mostly) helpful and even worked on the day trips we took out of city. My only complaint is the mattress was one of those cardboard over springs models and hurt our backs.

Cozy hotel
The hotel was quite close to the Kujo station, walkable distance to Kyoto station. The staff were friendly and very helpful! Our family room was smaller than expected, the 3rd sofa bed did not expand long enough and was not too comfortable. Other than that it was ok.

We are terribly upset with the service of the front desk. We were not given the room with city view and room size we paid for. We were given a smaller dark room in the ground floor with blocked (no) view and bad smell. When complained about the room, they said they have no rooms available but they will shift us to better room in the next day. But surprisingly they said that we have to check out at 10 am with our luggage and wait in lobby until other room is ready for us to get in. We did not agree about checking out, I had to argue for long time and told them that it is their responsibility to shift us from one room to another room, since it was their failure. This was the unpleasant part of our stay, the later room was fine, clean and bigger with city view. This spoiled the mood of our visit to Hotel She.

Helpful staff
I would recommend this hotel because of their staff, they soeak good english and were very helpful to our concerns especially with my inquiries on how to go to the famous tourist spots in kyoto. They also have a kitchen with complete utensils, oven, microwaves, stove etc. location is wuite good but if you have big luggages it's better if you take a subway from kyoto station then alight at kujo station, then walk 2-3 mins and you'll see the hotel at the right side

Difficult to find but very good room and staff
This hotel was very difficult to find as it is located in one little street which is not easy to find on a printed map. It took us more than 30 min to find this hotel. Location: it was located 15 min to kyoto station(south). There are only flats in this area so it is not very nice, but it is convenient if you want to take the train to do day trips. Staff was very nice and they could speak very good english! The room was very clean and it was bigger than other rooms that we stayed in japan.

Quaint little hotel
This is a small boutique hotel one stop away from Kyoto. It's in a quiet area, so if you like the hustle and bustle then don't stay here. There's a 7-11 about 7 minutes walk though we didn't venture another way so there could be another closer. Vending machine is located outside the building. The front staff was very friendly and by far had the most fluent English during my time in japan and previous trip. Toiletries are located downstairs in the main area. Because this is a small boutique hotel, the staff leave at 11pm. Afterwards, you need a password to enter the building. When I went out at night to purchase a water from the vending machine, it made me a bit scared as the door was open a few seconds longer after I reentered. What if someone followed in??? The room was spacious and reasonable for its price. If you don't mind the aforementioned safety issues then this is a nice hotel. Washroom was elevated so you had to step up a bit to get inside. I stayed during Jan when it was snowing, perhaps the walk to nearby places wouldn't be bad in better conditions.
