What guests think

Across recent reviews, Keio Prelia Hotel Kyoto Karasuma-Gojo is praised for very clean, modern rooms, friendly staff, a handy public bath, and a convenient base near Gojo Station, with some noting compact layouts and limited storage in certain rooms.

Many find the location convenient for Gojo Station, buses, and walking to restaurants and shopping, while some say it feels a bit far from Kyoto Station or the busiest sightseeing areas. Service is frequently described as friendly and helpful, though a few guests reported limited English, a businesslike tone, or strict policies like picking up extra toiletries and no late checkout. Facilities such as laundry rooms and floor water dispensers are handy but washers and dryers can be few and slow, and breakfast is generally enjoyed though variety and crowding come up; overall, expect a modern, good-value base.

Location was ideal to access to public transportation (subway and taxi) and Kyoto Station. Hotel was also close by to restaurants and stores. Room was spacious (family of 3), but no closet included or door hooks in bathroom. Amenities were efficient and excellent (laundry, water/ice station, and public bath). Staff and employees were accommodating and friendly. Bathroom amenities could've been better (size of shampoo, conditioner, and body soap). Breakfast choices could've been more diverse and flavorful. Breakfast employees friendly, efficient and accommodating as well!

객실도 깨끗하고 교통편도 좋아서 지하철역이나 버스정류도 가까이에 위치해 있습니다. 무엇보다 호텔주변이 번잡하지 않아서 좋았고, 1층에 대욕장도 피로를 풀기에 안성맞춤이었습니다. 가와라마치 중심지나 기요미즈테라도 접근하기 용이했고, 교토역도 버스로 가까운 거리가 이동하기 수월했습니다. 게다가 직원들이 친절하고 마지막날 택시까지 잡아주어 너무 감사했습니다. 다음에 교토에 갈 기회가 있으면 또 묵고 싶은 곳입니다. 가성비도 뛰어나니 강추합니다. ^^

Everything was perfect, it had all the amenities you could think of. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The location was just walking distance from the metro station and the sights around the hotel were beautiful as well. A convenience store next door, was also great to have. The room has smart tv and was more spacious than other hotels in Japan. I would 100% recommend and will be returning on future trips to Japan!

The Hotel itself was very clean and the staff were very helpful. The onsen was amazing although they need more laundry facilities. There are only 4 machine for the whole hotel which typically go for 2 hours per cycle because they are combined washer/dryers and the dryer usually takes multiple cycles. The location is ok, but be prepared to walk at least 15-20min to get to main Kyoto area, which doesn't seem like much until you spend all day exploring temples and climbing the numerous stairs throughout the Kyoto area. The nearest train station is approx. 10 min away with a lot of stairs so be aware for luggage

Everything was great…except the laundry facilities. There were only two machines. The make matters worse, they are the combo units that wash and dry, and it takes numerous additional cycles (3) to dry your clothes. If you don’t plan on doing your laundry, this is a great hub for Kyoto.

Stayed for three nights while sightseeing Kyoto. The property was clean and the staff were kind and responsive. They helped us keep our luggage before check-in time, and also helped us retrieve our keys when we accidentally locked ourselves out of our room. There are washing machines in the building on multiple different floors, and loved that we could check the availability of each washer through the TV inside our room. We felt comfortable every day of our stay and would definitely go back!

お部屋も思っていたより広く感じ、インテリアも良かったです。気になったのが、ユニットバスの中に独特な臭いがして、消臭スプレーをしても消えませんでした。お風呂はホテルの大浴場を使用しましたが、やはりお手洗い、洗面台は使用しますので、その度不快でした。見た目には何も問題がないのでお部屋の変更も、チェックインからある程度時間が経っていたので言い辛く2日間過ごしました。あと、冷蔵庫ではなく保冷庫だったのでビックリしました。小さくてもやはり冷蔵庫が欲しいと思いました。それ以外は、スタッフの方も皆さん対応よく綺麗なホテルでした。

A family mart is located 1 min away as well as several other food options within a 15 min walk. The staff were super nice and were able to accommodate our luggage before and after check-in. The facilities were clean and amenities were well kept. The room was bright, quiet, spacious, and very clean. The had an awesome shower as well!! Would definitely stay again when visiting Kyoto.

Hotel was clean and accessible, we could walk to Nishiki market in 10-15 minutes. It was also close to Kyoto station and there was a bus you could take near the hotel that reached many popular destinations. As we had a lot of luggage, we asked for the hotel’s help to book a taxi. On a rainy day, the hotel manager very kindly put on his rain coat and went out to flag down a taxi for us. Other than that, we also noticed he was helping out during check in time with wiping the luggages that got wet due to the rain and replenishing the lobby umbrellas. We were very thankful for his help.

The room was spacious and we were given cute pajamas and sandals. We took advantage of the washer/dryer that took both coins and tap card payment. The breakfast buffet was part of the restaurant attached to hotel. In the morning there was always a line up, but moved very quick, had great choices, and very friendly staff!

The hotel has modern, clean, and relatively spacious rooms for Japan, and the location is very central with easy access to public transport and shops. However, it doesn’t fully feel like a 4-star property. Storage space is minimal — you can’t even slide a suitcase under the bed, which makes organizing the room tricky. Laundry facilities are few, and staff, while polite, seemed hesitant with English communication. The hotel seems to want to follow a “green” policy, but it felt counterproductive: all toiletries were removed daily, even if unused or barely used. One day I ended up with no shampoo, conditioner, or shower gel in the room, and when I asked reception for a replacement set to be delivered, I was told I had to come down myself. Breakfast is disappointing for a 4-star hotel — there’s only plain coffee, no espresso or cappuccino, and limited variety overall. I’ve stayed in 3-star hotels in Japan with better breakfast options. Overall, good for location and clean, modern rooms, but service and amenity gaps make it feel closer to a mid-range 3-star hotel than a true 4-star.

This is a good hotel, but probably not a great hotel. It was the only hotel we stayed at in Japan that did not offer complimentary water and coffee in our room. The front desk informed us that was because we booked a cheaper rate, but that was never an issue anywhere else we stayed. I would expect these services to be available for all rates, but this hotel was the exception, and I think other travellers should be aware of this. Otherwise the rooms are clean and well appointed although the hotel does not offer much in the way of personal care products like moisturizers and face cleaners, so that's also a bit of a disappointment. The front desk staff did their best, but they appeared a bit shy and standoffish compared with other hotels we stayed at in larger cities. Overall we were a bit disappointed in this hotel and we understand that hotels in Japan make no guarantees about the services or standards like they might in Europe or North America
