JR WEST GROUP VIA INN PRIME KYOTOEKI HACHIJOGUCHI

JR WEST GROUP VIA INN PRIME KYOTOEKI HACHIJOGUCHI

10/10 Excellent
"For a hotel in kyoto, it does the job, but choosing this option sacrifices comfort of your room for a stay right next to the main station(like a 2 minute walk away). Being next to the station, allows for a short walk to a cluster of restaurants, malls, and shops. The bathrooms were quite small and the shower head may not be too amiable to taller people. The breakfast was amazing, i’ve stayed in three hotels in my trip here and for being a cheap option of the three, it has an excellent variety of countless foods you can never get bored of. This meaning that the quality of some favorites may not be as good as elsewhere though."
