Dhawa Yura Kyoto

Stayed here for 6 nights whilst on our 5 week touring holiday around Japan, room 213. Loved the hotel but probably because it was by far one of the nicest we had stayed in up to this point. It was probably the most western, the guests mainly American and European. We had stayed in quite a few hotels with pretty firm beds and small rooms so the room here was huge in comparison and the bed was the biggest bed I have ever slept in, we have a super king size at home and this was way, way bigger, you could have slept 6 people comfortably in there, I kept loosing my husband in it during the night!! And when I say comfortable, that was my only complaint, it was so comfy I could not bear to leave it in the morning, plus the fact that breakfast was until 10.30, I had every excuse to stay in it for as long as possible and yet so much to do and see in Kyoto. The room had everything you would expect in it for Japan hotel, fridge, coffee making, dressing gowns, slippers, the one thing they could have done with was a larger wardrobe or at least more than 4 hangars supplied per room but I guess you could have asked for more. Conveniently situated near the subway station for ease of getting everywhere. Only about 5 minute walk to the Pomtocho district with all the small eateries although I would highly recommend the following restaurants, after 3 weeks in Japan we were ready for some different styles of food:- Italian for neopolitan style pizza called “Pizzeria da Naghino”, for Okonomiyaki and wonderful garlic shrimp try “Teppanyaki Manryu” and for beef tonkatsu “Gyukatsu Motomura” and a great Indian called “Mughal” (see my reviews on all 4). We did not eat in the hotel restaurant but the breakfast was very good, making fresh omelettes for you and on until late. They had a bar if you fancied a drink making various cocktails and also a small area where you could make yourself a Starbucks Nespresso coffee and get a couple of small snacks. The staff are very friendly and efficient. Can highly recommend a stay here and part of the Accor group if you are collecting your points.

First class hotel with excellent and professional reception team. Stayed for 5 nights with husband and 2 daughters in premier king rooms. They were spacious with walk in shower and unique seating area. Rooms had a real boutique feeling. Reception area was stunning with trees on lower level growing up to mezzanine level. Ate one meal in restaurant , staff were helpful and food lovely. Location of hotel is one of it high points too, right beside sanjo station which is perfect for accessing all the nation sights of Kyoto . Can not recommend hotel enough , it is perfect .

I stayed at the hotel during japanese winter and had a very good experience nevertheless. The hotel itself is comfortable and stylish, with a bed that was especially good after long days exploring the city. I also liked the location, right by the subway and surrounded by plenty of restaurants.||Breakfast was well prepared and varied, and I found the bamboo forest on the lower floor a unique and calming detail. The mix of Eastern and Western design throughout the property worked surprisingly well.||The staff were consistently polite, attentive, and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The only drawback was that the rooms are a little bit on the smaller side.

Delightful modern hotel. It’s very comfy. The breakfast delicious and the ingredients are high quality. Premium dishes that satisfies the definition of high quality cuisine. Good slippers and comfortable pyjama(bathrobes are also included). Good cleaning service. I recommend this hotel to stay in while you’re in Kyoto. Price/quality ratio is perfect!

Rooms were ok but breakfast and food was below par. Hotel laundry service was also extremely expensive (much higher than any other place in this trip and as expensive as New York hotels). Would stay again due to convenience but not the best place we have stayed.

Flawless. The rooms are spacious and the king bed is *enormous.* I felt like my partner was in a different time zone! Facilities are gorgeous, with understated and very relaxed decor concept. Bathrooms and fixtures all brand new, with exceptional housekeeping. Staff amazingly kind across the board, with brilliant breakfast buffet and a stylish bar. Huge TVs and cool aircon to round things out for a great stay. The Banjo metro station is across the street, and the top of a central tourist strip of restaurants just across the bridge. Perfect location to explore Kyoto by foot or public transportation. Would love to have stayed longer!

We had a pleasure to stay at the Dhawa Yura in Kyoto for five nights. The hotel is modern and cosy. It's also close to the underground and railway stations. The room we stay in was well equipped with a very large bed. Also the bathroom had all one could wish for. The breakfast selection was good, too. It included a buffet and made to order selection. The stuff was excellent! From check-in to check-out out they truly wanted to make our stay very pleasant and easy. To the extent that they handled a postage issue we encountered, which was definitely beyond usual service one could expect. Definitely a hotel I'd say again in Kyoto.

Great hotel, centrally located with the subway just around the corner – super convenient for getting around the city. It wasn’t busy when we arrived, so we had a nice chat with the front desk while they kindly prepared the room for an early check-in. The front desk was very service-minded and gave helpful recommendations on what was happening in the city. The manager also came out to personally greet us, which made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was great, and rooms were clean. Would definitely stay again!
