THE POCKET HOTEL Kyoto Shijo Karasuma
Was Gäste sagen
The bathrooms were amazing, super well equipped with foot towels, hairdryers, mirrors, toothbrushes and toothpaste, and multiple hooks in each shower cubicle. the towels were replaced every day, with a bath towel and a face towel provided. everything was super super clean and the staff were so friendly and accomodating. we even extended our stay by a night as we loved it so much! the location was AMAZING- a super short walk to multiple stations, and in the centre of everything right off shijo st. nishiki market was 30 seconds away, and we never had to walk more than 2 minutes to a convenience store or food. loved loved loved this place, everything was perfect, would 100000000000000000% stay again.

Early check in was cheap. I love this "hybrid" of capsule hotel and regular hotel. Your rooms are actually lockable, and separate from others, while still using a shared space for showers and toilets, and the price to fairly match. This lobby is the only one I've felt invited to hang out in. Their vending machines have a great variety of drinks and snacks. Walking distance from stations and around the corner (less than 1 min walking distance) from Nishiki Market. Their laundry machines are clean and efficient. My clothes came out clean, mildew free, and dry. Wifi speeds are very accommodating. Very clean establishment overall. I would stay here again in the future.

The location is very convenient, close to a major subway station, shopping market street and Gion district. Rooms are compact and tidy but very comfortable, and the communal bathroom space is kept clean and has hairdryers. Price is great, I stayed with my sister in a bunk room and each bed had a shelf, privacy curtain, dimmable lights and a charger so it was very easy and comfortable.

The location is great- walkable distance to a lot of the tourist areas without feeling like it's in the center of busy streets. There were numerous amenities available in the hotel and we really liked the hangout area in the lobby. There is also a Yamato Transport shipping store right outside if you prefer to ship your luggage which was very convenient since the hostel doesn't ship luggage out (they only receive them).

An amazingly placed hostel-like hotel with great amenities and wonderful staff. We had a quick and easy check-in, then went straight upstairs to our room which was exactly as expected. The toilets and showers were clean and fully stocked at all times.

love everything about this hotel! ● We stayed in the private twin room with super comfy beds and enough plug sockets. ●Even though there's only a small space between our beds and the door, we can still manage to locate ours 3 luggage there. ● the shared bathroom is super organized and clean. ●The laundry machine worked really well and one of them could be paid by easy card which was really convenient. ● Drinkable water everywhere.

Super accommodating! They have everything you need. Check in and check out was easy. Also, unlike other hostels/communal hotels, you DON'T have to check out of your pocket room every morning for cleaning service, so this was super nice. Lots of storage space, your own window, and your own AC unit. I am a women traveling alone from the USA and I felt very safe.

This place honestly felt like luxury and was one of the best priced hostels we stayed at in Japan. New, modern facilities with plenty of space and very comfy beds. The rooms are small but fit us just fine and for the price they were a steal. There’s luggage storage downstairs if you don’t want your bag in your room, and free comfy loungewear you can wear around the hotel between showers & the bathroom. The staff was very professional and kind Loved it & would recommend!

Comfortable minimalist hotel with all the basics that you need. The rooms lock, and everyone on the floor shares a bathroom that is also keycard access only. Gender separated showers and coin laundry on the first floor that were clean and brightly lit. I like that the room has a tablet that allows you to check the status of the washing machines and the number of showers available for use. You have the option of getting a new set of towels every day up to your check out day by hanging your bag on your room’s door handle. The location of this hotel is excellent! It is literally right next to Nishiki market in a big shopping district which also puts it in very close proximity to many delicious food options. The major Hankyu line station in the area and a lot of bus lines are also very close by. 25-30 minutes walk to a lot of the major shrines and temples in Kyoto.

Good value for a great location and compact stay. Glad that these rooms have windows! It is a good fit for those that don't need a spacious room (I only went to my hotel to sleep most of the time) but also don't want a space as minimal as a real capsule hotel. Using the luggage storage on checkout day was straightforward and convenient. The laundry machines also worked pretty well (I only used the washing function). Given the hotel staffing issues in Japan right now and how Kyoto is experiencing higher levels of tourism than expected, it is understandable the staff were probably under some stress but they were still helpful to guests as much as they could be.
