Hotel Legasta Kyoto Higashiyama Sanjo

The staff was very nice and welcoming. The hotel is on the opposite side of the metro and in walking distance to Kiyomizu-dera, Gion and the Yasaka Shrine. You can get coffee and juice in the entrance hall and store your luggage before checking in and out.

A wonderful little hotel where there has been added thought in little ways everywhere to make your stay extra special. The room was a great size compared to others in Japan and the bathroom was a reasonable size. The breakfast each morning was delicious, loved the personalised coffee cups, and the location was convenient for most things to do around Kyoto with train and bus stops right nearby. It really is the perfect Kyoto stay!

Hotel Legasta was my favourite accommodation of our 2 week Japan trip. Clean, modern, comfortable with a lot of space to walk around and traditional tatami flooring as well as all amenities. Location-wise it was two subways (easy), one bus, or a $15USD taxi from Kyoto station. A few mins walk from Higashiyama station. It was also walkable to Ginza, and one bus to Kiyomizu-Dera (the big temple), and one bus to Fushimi Inari Shrine (torii gates). There were combinis across the street and also right beside a McDonalds. The area was quiet at night. We were only there for two days so we didn't use any communal amenities, but the room itself was well equipped with pajamas, kettle, fridge, toiletries, etc. You had to get coffee downstairs. Bed was SUPER COMFORTABLE. If we were staying in Kyoto longer, we would've extended our stay.

I stayed at this hotel and was extremely satisfied. The location was excellent: in Gion Higashiyama, close to many temples, shrines and alleys to visit, and just a short walk from the metro station, which made getting around very convenient. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean, providing great comfort throughout the stay. But the real highlight was the staff, who were incredibly kind and helpful. They were always ready to assist with advice, directions, and even restaurant reservations. Additionally, they managed the luggage forwarding service to other hotel in Japan without any issues, making everything much easier. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a great base to explore the city with maximum comfort and support. また近いうちにこのホテルに戻りたいと思っています. ありがとうございます.

The location is great, right next to a charming market and within walking distance from many sightseeing locations. The hotel has a nice design and the room is spacious, and well equipped. The shower and bathrooms are modern and comfortable.
