APA Hotel Kyoto-Ekikita

Unfortunately I could hear the trains going past from my room, not enough to wake you up but the noise was there. Also my Father who’s 6ft tall had trouble having a shower in his room due to the low roof in the bathroom. Overall the hotel is average.

great duvet. as typical small rooms but they are functional. good staff good wifi great showers but they did not feel like the cleanest rooms. location is the best very close to the train station.

Stayed 5 nights in March with my father, two separate rooms, he came for business and I explored Kyoto, 5 min from Kyoto station and cabs and amazing food. Could not ask for a more perfect hotel for our needs. Clean, great location and friendly and attentive staff. No frills hotel. When traveling to Kyoto you shouldn’t be in your room anyways. My father will most likely continue coming for business and I hope I get to stay here again. Thank you!

The APA Hotel Kyoto Ekikita is within a five-minute walk from Kyoto Station. The hotel provides the basic comforts of a hotel room, giving each room around 100 sq. ft. of space to rest, shower, and possibly use a desk as needed. The front desk staff was attentive to my room requests and efficiently assisted our large student group. One benefit is their washer and dryer availability, whereas the APA Kyoto Villa hotel did not have one. Their restaurant next door is relatively small, with seating arrangements up to 15 guests. They only serve a Japanese-style breakfast; most items stay mostly the same. You have a self-serve drink station inside the restaurant. In addition, the service is quite to the point (meaning you get your meal, eat, and out). The restaurant staff provides no embellishments or other services. I would recommend the hotel but will most likely consider other APA locations depending on price and availability.
