We had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The location was superb, right near the bustling restaurants street in downtown Kyoto. We easily accessed it by bus from Kyoto station and it was conveniently situated between Kyoto Station and Kyoto's main shopping street, Shijo Dori. We loved being within walking distance of the vibrant Gion and Pontucho area, which added to the charm of our visit. The room was cozy, the bathroom clean, and the service provided by the staff was exceptional. The hotel also offered a delicious breakfast that started our day off on a high note. We even had the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful view from our room, overlooking the city's picturesque streets. we were extremely satisfied with our stay.

The only downside we experienced was that the air conditioning in our room was not working properly, which made it a bit stuffy at night. However, we were lucky to visit during a cooler season, so it didn't impact our stay too much.

I recently stayed at SH By The Square Hotel in Kyoto for a few days. The staff was exceptional and went above and beyond with their customer service. The hotel is conveniently located near the bus and train stations, making it easy to get around the city. They even offer day bus passes for purchase at the front desk. The hotel is also within walking distance to downtown and the Gion district, making it a great base for exploring the city. The rooms were comfortable and clean, and the hotel also had a washing machine and dryer available for use. I had a great experience and will definitely be back when I return to Kyoto.

Couldn't recommend this hotel more.

The breakfast was delicious and abundant, and the free bikes provided were a nice way to get around the city. the hotel was in a great location, just a short walk from many attractions and restaurants.

The lobby being on the second floor wasn’t clearly marked, which was a little confusing upon arrival. the room was quite small and cramped, making it difficult to move around comfortably.

We absolutely loved our stay at this luxurious hotel! The location is perfect, as it is within walking distance of many of Kyoto's must-do sights in the beautiful historical Gion district. The hotel is situated in a quiet area, which provided a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere.

The room was surprisingly spacious and comfortable, with high-quality cabinetry and super cozy beds. The location was perfect, with easy access to Kyoto Station, Nishiki Market, and many other attractions. The staff were incredibly helpful and polite, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. And the best part was the breathtaking view from my room! I would highly recommend this hotel for its excellent amenities and convenient location.

This hotel is a hidden gem in a fantastic location. It is situated in the beautiful historical Gion district, just a short walk to the city center and the river side. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with a deep bath and efficient room temperature controls. The staff is incredibly kind and helpful, making you feel appreciated from the moment you arrive. The hotel also offers a delicious Japanese breakfast with locally sourced ingredients. Additionally, they provide free drinks throughout the day, adding a nice touch to the overall experience.

The hotel lacks a bar, but there are plenty of neighborhood bars nearby, so it's just a minor inconvenience.

Great location near Nishiki Market and Gion. Friendly, helpful staff. Large rooms with spacious bathrooms. Good amenities, including a Dyson hairdryer. Excellent value for money.

The breakfast with local Kyoto products and delicious Omi beef, large and clean river view room with comfortable bedding, walking distance to Gion and Nishiki Market, lovely places to eat along the river.

Nothing to mention.

Excellent central location, short walk to restaurants and shops. Surprisingly spacious room, very clean and tidy. Great complimentary tea and coffee. Friendly staff, exceptional customer service. Convenient access to bus and train stations. Super comfy PJs provided.

I recently stayed at a hotel in Kyoto and had a wonderful experience at Sh By The Square Hotel Kyoto Kiyamachi. The hotel is conveniently located near a bus stop, making it easy to get to Kyoto Station and other attractions like the Kyomizudera Temple. The staff at the hotel were extremely welcoming and helpful, and they were able to communicate well in English. The room was spacious and beautifully decorated, with comfortable beds and a high level of cleanliness. I also loved the Japanese touches in the room, like the tea pot and green tea provided. it was a great stay!

Nothing for me. 😊

Fantastic location, brand-new building, comfortable and perfectly cleaned rooms, friendly staff, soft touch pajamas, excellent quality toiletries, large-size bathtub, convenient transportation options

Can't think of anything

We had an amazing stay at a hotel in Kyoto. the size of our room was perfect, with additional facilities like a breakfast area with a beautiful view of the temples. Everything was spotlessly clean and the decor was modern yet cozy. the staff went above and beyond to assist us with any requests we had. We can't recommend this place enough!

Don't have any issues at all 😊
