Positive: A very lovely hotel, stylish lobby, and the room was more spacious than many are in Japan so you feel less cramped. Plenty of places to put things, desk, chair, bench seat, shelving, hanging space, fridge. Very clean. The toilet, the handbasin, and the shower were all separated areas of our room which is more convenient for 2 people using the facilities. Shower also has a bath beside it. Decor is modern but has traditional Japanese touches. So close to Kyoto train station with all its shops and restaurants. Very friendly hotel staff. Check in and check out were seamless. Free laundry facilities were very appreciated. They have an onsen but we didn't use it. Bed comfortable. Negative: Although the room is lovely and private, the room design means there is barely any natural light. One narrow window looks into a little stone garden but then just the backs of nearby buildings. The lack of natural light in the room can feel a little gloomy (we are used to the brightness of Queensland) and our hotel in Tokyo had had a big window with views so we'd gotten used to having that. The darker room also meant we slept later. :) My husband found the pillows very uncomfortable. They may have been buckwheat pillows or similar? Random: One night of our stay there was a fire alarm at about midnight and we all had to evacuate, but it turned out to be a false alarm. Obviously not a regular event (you would hope) but was quite jarring at the time.

The rooms was large and its finishings were all thoughtful and fresh. The hotel offered great services which all surpassed my expectations (staff, bath, laundry). The location is very convenient with the station very close and a 711 across the street.

I had an excellent experience at Ala Hotel. It was spotless, well-designed, and had great rooms, spacious bathrooms and toilets, lovely amenities, and a few minutes' walk from Kyoto station. Would I stay here again? Yes. I would move into this hotel if it were possible.
