This hotel was in an amazing location! It is super clean and the staff is very friendly. However, the beds are extremely hard and uncomfortable. That’s why I gave comfort a 4 star.

I have stayed at several Hotel Forzas across Japan and it always meets my expectations and delivers the same features & services.
However, I have 2 gripes about this Hotel Forza property. Hotel lobby is on B1F and you always have to take the escalator down 1 floor from Ground to take one of two elevators to your room. There is a third elevator but that only takes you to Ground Floor. The complimentary 3-in-1 lotion only has grapefruit fragance and is not effective. Minor grievances, great hotel chain.

Forza experience was incredible! My husband and I only stayed for 2 nights but would have loved to stay longer. The hotel is beautiful, staff very friendly, & INCREDIBLE breakfast!!
We would stay here again solely for the breakfast accommodation. However, the hotel room was spacious as well as the bed & pillows were comfortable.
It was walking distance to everything including the bus station (10 min).
We highly recommend!

Had an amazing time in Kyoto all thanks to Hotel Forza + staff. Hotel Forza was recommended by a family member and they did not disappoint. I arrived later then planned and had communicated that to the hotel in advanced. They were very accommodating and even wished me safe travels. The Takkyubin service made traveling to the next area easier especially since we stopped along the way for another attraction and was worried about availability of coin lockers at the station. There was a free Sake tasting event too! The location of the hotel is very convenient especially when I have to travel very early the next day. There are many stations and bus stops nearby. The humidifier in the room was a great addition. When I come back to Kyoto, I definitely want to stay at Hotel Forza again.
