Urban Hotel Kyoto — Hotel in Kyoto

It is a very nice hotel, with very nice staff.

The only things that bothered me: The pillows were not comfortable. The step to (and from) the bathroom is pretty high. And there is an open space under the door which makes the room very noisy, if there are people in the hallway (like other guests or staff).
