Hyatt Regency Kyoto

The rooms are clean and comfortable. The location is accessible by commuting by bus to the main Kyoto station.

1. The gym is too isolated and quiet to access to. 2. We left the room for cleaning since 10am in the morning. By the time we return at 230pm, the room is still not clean. We have to sit at the lobby for 45mins to wait. 3. Breakfast for 5 days - we have the same type of food every day, no hot dishes and only minimal change on some cold appetizers and yogurt daily. And we can only allowed to take either continental breakfast or Japanese set. The food quality and standard is not even par with some local Japan hotels which we stayed before.

The Hyatt Regency was a relaxing stay and an elegant hotel. The rooms are simple, yet comfortable and the shower is spacious and steamy. I was pleased with the location as it was a quick trip (or short enough walk) to Kyoto Station and it was conveniently placed for biking to nearby shrines or the street market area. The bar has an excellent half-price happy hour and they make an outstanding (and cold) dirty martini that makes it extra worth it.

I view leaves much to be desired, but if you're looking for a hotel with sweeping outdoor views, then you will be disappointed. This is a wonderful choice for a simple destination that allows you to view all of Kyoto at a reasonable enough cost. It could be less expensive for what you get. The breakfast is not traditional Japanese and a lot of the elements feel like you're in a business traveler hotel, but as long as you manage your expectations, you will be happy with the accommodations.

Modern architecture, good and valuable materials on excellent design. Authentic hospitality .

Overpriced , maybe caused by Easter Weekend .
