Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Hotel Traveltine Kyoto Kiyamachi is known for its prime location, with a quiet atmosphere yet being within walking distance of the central shopping district. The rooms are often described as spacious, modern and comfortable, especially when compared to typical Japanese standards, with a pleasant stay for many guests. A light breakfast with pastries and complimentary coffee or orange juice is a popular perk; however, a few guests found aspects of the hotel, such as the evening buffet, to be expensive for the quality offered. With keycard access to room floors, it provides a sense of security during the night.

Not impressed with cleanliness

good locationmusty smellfabric strands

The hotel's location is good for accessing buses and trains.

The cleaning was definitely subpar. There was an odd, musty smell in the bathroom (I suspect mold). When I arrived, I even found some trash left in the room. REALLY annoying. The laundry machines also seemed poorly maintained, because I found strands of fabric ALL over the place.

perfect locationcute bathroomincomplete cleaning

I adored the location. It was perfect for my itinerary! I walked everywhere I wanted and bus stops were right outside. The hotel was so cute. The bathroom was especially adorable with a lot of areas for storage! The room size was great!

The room cleaning felt somewhat incomplete compared to other hotels I have visited, but this is a minor issue overall.
