Clean, spacious, modern, chic and heart warming hotel at reasonable price... with friendly staff. We borrow the iron and try the free sake

Great location, very friendly and helpful staff. It’s great that you can leave your luggage before the check-in and after the check-out. Delicious breakfast.

I liked how aesthetically-looking this hotel is - the room, the hallway, the lobby are superb. Also the staff are friendly. They offer you free sake at the bar, they even have an espresso machine free of use. The location is nearby bus and train stations. Very convenient.

Nothing. It was a great experience at this hotel.

Love the free coffee, sake and amenities offered here. Everyone was so helpful and felt like they wanted to help you. Hotel was located nearby eateries so walking was no problem. Local bars nearby as well as their own. We didn't get a chance since we were always coming back late from the day. I would totally look this location again the next time I'm in Kyoto

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. The room was clean and the size was okay. They helped us forward our luggage. I will definitely stay here again when I come back. Loved it.

The rooms with bunkbeds were less comfortable and the beds were creaking.

Room was big enough for one person. Location is quite good, it's not far from the station. The hotel was clean and I loved the option to sit down at the bar at the reception and enjoy a coctail with my friends, there were even discounts for guests

No kettle in the room No laundry.

We stayed here for 3 nights in a traditional Japanese room. The cost was around 16000 yen per night including breakfast. Location isn’t bad, there is a short walk to the Metro station. There are some bars and restaurants nearby but the main tourist area and Nishiki market is maybe 10-15 minute walk. One night it was raining so we took an Uber for 1500 yen. The room was large and had very clean. The traditional bed was surprisingly comfy. Bathroom had great shower and again spotless. Breakfast was 10/10, well nice and choice of 6 dishes. There is a hotel bar which offers free Sake to guests. Overall a very enjoyable stay.

Breakfast was simple but tasty and portion size is sufficient. We enjoyed the free sakes in the evening. Everyone was friendly. Everything was efficient.

This was my second time at Imu hotel. Very cool bar/reception area downstairs, great for chilling out after a long day, all very laid back and exactly what I love in a hotel. The staff are very friendly and helpful, check in and out was so easy and quick. The room was a decent size and the price was incredibly reasonable. Would highly recommend for a few days in Kyoto and may even return again one day...

Great hotel in Central Kyoto, perfect for exploring. Delicious breakfast in the morning. Would have booked more nights if there was space!

There's no kettle/ cups in the room. Need to go down to the ground floor to fill up water. Overall the room was clean, except for the area where the bin is placed, still some food scraps in the area (on the tatami floor) where the mattresses were placed next to.

Friendly and helpful staff. Its a great location and good concept for environmental friendly. They have put up a large collage for place to visit for that period of time (cherry blossom) that includes very useful information i.e. opening time, fee, distance from hotel...etc

Could not open the window in the room, so had a fight with too hot/too cold and the A/C

Nice rooms! Walk in shower. Good breakfast. Guy in the bar speaks several languages, very unusual for Japan but big plus. You can borrow umbrella from reception with rainy weather, amazing! Just 2 stops from Kyoto station (6mins)

There is no kettle in the room and hot water is only accessible in the lobby

It is clean, room is big enough for a solo traveller and the staff are helpful and friendly ^^

The breakfast was a bit different than what I was expecting from a Japanese establishment, so I just ate the first morning.

All was great! Will totally visit again ✌️

If you exclude the somewhat high price, which is a Kyoto thing, there is nothing bad about this hotel at all

Great location, extremely friendly staff, everyone spoke great English! Bed was really comfortable, amazing room in general

Very close to center, comfortable, staff is nice.

The amenities are a bit basic, but so long as you know that's what you're booking in advance, that shouldn't be a problem.

The rooms are simple, clean and well-arranged. There is free coffee provided in the reception space, which is itself a very pleasantly designed area. I had what turned out to be a very complicated query with the next hotel on my journey, and I'm pleased to say that the hotel staff at Imu were of immense help with this, making phone-calls on my behalf and generally providing excellent support.

Other than the windows not being able to open, this property was exceptional

Lovely property. Staff were excellent and very helpful. Distance to attractions were easily walkable for those with medium walking abilities.
