The hotel smelled like raw sewage. There was no housekeeping service. The bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. The room was unreasonably small.

This hotel was in an incredibly convenient location and I enjoyed my short stay there. There was more noise from the street than my previous hotel that was more nestled into the neighborhood. I'd say its a good budget hotel, but if you're looking for a luxurious hotel experience, this property is not for you.

My friend and I stayed at 3 different hotels while we were in Japan and Hotel Abest was our most favourite one - we would joke "Hotel Abest is the best". We liked the fact that the hotel was right in front of Kiyomizu-Gojo station, so it made travel around the city more easy. Also nice because it was only a 19-minute walk to Nishiki Market and 20-minute walk to the Gion area. There was a Lawson and Family Mart convenience store right across the street from us too. The staff were very polite and friendly and always greeted us when we would come and go through the lobby. I would stay here again if I came back to Kyoto :)

This hotel located along the Highway
Only 2 convenient store located opposite.
Scary to walk 20 minutes to the one and only restaurant.
It was so dark along the way.

Location was great, but very loud in the evenings due to the big intersection. However, the plethora of food options and walkability to major sights was a huge plus! No luggage forwarding services either.

Clean with great service and updated shower/bath
Chose this hotel for it's proximity to the train station, Gion and Nishiki market. We had a room w/2 twin beds. Very comfortable and a good size. Great shower. Clean. It was our favorite hotel of the trip (stayed @ 2 others). Staff was so nice and accommodating. Several spoke english perfectly which was helpful. Lawson and 7-11 across the street if you want an early morning coffee.

The perfect stay for travelers with friendly staff and clean rooms. Excellent placement at the canal and near the train line for visiting attractions on the east side of Kyoto.
