6/10 Good

Great location, medium service
I’ll start with the positives. This hotel was on a great location, was clean, and had a fantastic onsen! However we were given the smallest room ever. There was no spot to put your suitcase down let alone sit anywhere besides the bed. We had to upgrade (even though we asked to upgrade from the beginning). Additionally the staff spoke very little English. And hallway smelt like smoke even thought the hotel was non smoking. Great location, great bath but would spend my money elsewhere.

8/10 Very good

Overpriced
The location was great and there are two coin washers and dryers that we used and appreciated after two weeks of travel. But other than those two considerations, we were disappointed.The room was tiny, but that is no surprise. The surprise was the complete lack of any effort to make the tiny space feel bigger. No hooks. No retractable drying line. No shelves on the wall.The tv did not pivot so you couldn’t lie on the bed to watch it -you had to sit on the tiny uncomfortable seat directly across from it. To top it off, the free breakfast was unimpressive. (And we have had a lot of breakfast buffets in Japan. ) Missed opportunities to make a 4 day stay more comfortable. The staff was pleasant and helpful, but we felt that we overpaid for this stay.

Great location. Clean, quiet. The hot tub was such a pleasure. The breakfasts were terrific. The staff even wrote a recipe for me when I complimented a dish - in English. Small rooms but well appointed.

Don’t let the simple entrance to the Grandbell Hotel fool you! Once you are inside, the grand foyer is revealed and your glorious adventure begins. The rooms are perfect, the breakfast is sublime, the location is superb, close to everything. Go out of your way to get to this property. We will come back to the beautiful city of Kyoto and the magnificent Grandbell Hotel.

We loved this hotel! The staff were very kind and helpful, nice amenities available. Amazing location, we walked most of the time! We opted to use a very close by 24-hour laundromat for laundry that had multiple large high efficiency machines (less than 5 minute walk). Would definitely recommend staying here.
