“Stylish Kyoto hangout, crowded public seating”
Ace Hotel Kyoto is a much-loved design address inside the ShinPuhKan complex — an atmospheric old-meets-new interior, a beautiful garden, and a lively lobby and café. Rooms are quiet and comfortable (sometimes small) with record players, service is friendly, and the location makes exploring Kyoto easy. Watch-outs: the black shower tiles could use deeper cleaning, and lobby seating often fills with café customers rather than hotel guests.
