The OneFive Kyoto Shijo - Comfort in Kyoto

What guests think

At The OneFive Kyoto Shijo, travellers praise convenient transport links and the 7-Eleven next door, generally clean, modern rooms—often spacious for Japan—with excellent showers and good value, while noting limited housekeeping, minimal on-site services, occasional street noise, and firm beds.

Staff are widely described as friendly and helpful, though check-in is via kiosks and the 10 a.m. checkout feels strict to some. Facilities are basic, with coin-operated laundry and lobby coffee or water, and no on-site restaurant or breakfast. Expect a clean, good-value base in a handy location rather than a full-service hotel.

Check in was quick and painless. The room was much more spacious than what we experienced in Tokyo and Osaka. Room and bathroom were clean. There were 2 sets of washers and dryers total so definitely try to do your laundry during off peak hours, which would be during the day while people are out exploring. There’s a very convenient 7/11 right beside the hotel which was awesome for breakfast or late night snacks. A very small thing is that they will not automatically provide you with new toiletries if you have the “do not disturb” sign on your door unlike other hotels we’ve been to so far in Japan. It’s not the biggest deal but something we noticed we wish they had. Also, when they did clean our room, they had moved some of our things around and were perhaps a bit rough cleaning the room it looked like. Again, not the biggest deal, overall still a very enjoyable stay and would come back again.

Great spot in Kyoto, all the main bus stops are right outside the property, it is walkable distance to the main shopping/dining area. 15 minute walk from Kamo river and 7-11 right under the property for any late night needs you might have. The rooms were extremely clean, the shower was amazing, the street view from our room was perfect and they were able to accommodate early check-in by an hour since a room was available. Only positive things to say about this hotel.

This location is about a 20-25 min walk to karasuma oike st. And sanjo keihan lines . Perfect to relax in and walls are pretty thick. You are also able to hook you laptop up to the tv and watch your movies or anime!

We were eligible for one time service over 6 nights stay, service is fine but not detailed. We lost our laundry bag due to staff picked up with dirty towel. But staff did not speak English, unable to get it back. Bed and pillow are hard not comfortable. Short stay is ok, May not choose for long stay. Currently the restaurant is not closed too.

This is not a destination, it is a comfortable base to explore Kyoto. THERE IS NO Breakfast, restaurants, onsens and all those lovely Japanese perks. But if you have a JR pass, the JR bus from the station passes a few short blocks away and you are on a street worth walking to the end of it. Many things are close by and most of the rest accessible with the JR pass.
