เทอร์เรซคิโยมิสึ เกียวโต

Friendly staff and a nice location. Would be nice if they offered more services such as shuttle pick up from train station.

Nice hotel and good location.

I had positive expectations for the Terrace Kiyomizu and I wasn't disappointed. This small hotel is a pleasant alternative to dour business hotels, on the one hand, and expensive luxury hotels on the other, offering clean comfort and pleasant service at a moderate price. The location is just about perfect, within easy walking distance (I did not go) to Kiyomizudera and other sites such as Sanjusandgendo and the Kyoto National Museum (a 10 minute walk, and I did go). There is a bus stand, for many city and private lines, on the corner. The only thing I did not like is the limited space for walking immediately outside the hotel doors. When traffic is light this is not an issue, but in the mornings, traffic is heavy on this narrow street, which connects with a major city street, Higashiyama Dori, half a block away. So, although there is a narrow sidewalk on the opposite side of the road, it is necessary to weave between cars when crossing. Even this probably isn't a big deal, but disabled visitors or those hauling large luggage do not always have easy access to the building (which unfortunately is true in much of Japan). Once inside the cool comfort of the hotel, however, there is a lift and everything is pleasantly laid out. With that noted, I strongly recommend the Terrace Kiyomizu. I had a wonderful two-night stay, and will return if I have a chance for another short Kyoto trip. Thank you, staff, for the enjoyable visit!

Friendly and helpful staffs at front desk. Close to Kiyomizu Dera temple...Recommend

It was close to the bus stop and Kiyomizu shrine, fantastic shopping and the staff were incredible. The only thing was the bed was quite hard but other than that, no faults!

Clean and conveniently located. On our last night the desk clerk brought us chocolates.

Pros: Bigger than usual Kyoto hotel rooms, very near bus stations and convenient stores, clean facilities and very courteous and helpful staff. Cons: None

Had a great stay for a few nights. Hotel location is hard to beat, walking distance to many of the most famous sightseeing locations in Kyoto. Staff was warm and friendly, nice handwritten welcome note in my room. Room was just as expected, clean, simple, and more than sufficient. Hotel has a beautiful terrace on the roof with sofas and a nice view.

Largest room I have experienced in Japan, still the same bathroom however which seems standard ... A prefab unit, efficient though tiny.

Close to Kiyomizu Dera
