Outstanding accommodation in great location. Close to train, opposite beautiful temple and easy walking distance to Gion. Very spacious, clean, well appointed. Sake tasting was great! Would highly recommend if you are after space for a family of 4! Very friendly staff.

A hotel with 20 pieces is a nice place to stay. The hotel is very close to Kyoto station, which makes it very convenient. There is a lot of shopping near by that can be accessed by walking. The hotel itself was very clean and well maintained. The room is very spacious. It was a nice comfortable bed. There is a friendly staff at the hotel. The location is ideal for exploring Kyoto, with easy access to public transportation and nearby attractions. The hotel offers modern amenities and a comfortable stay, making it a great choice for both business and leisure travelers.

The room is extremely big and generously sized. Most of the bathrooms in Japan I’ve stayed in were tiny but this one had a huge bathroom which was certainly appreciated. It even comes with a Dyson hair dryer. Service staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There are also a multitude of items for free rental such as coffee machines, games, massage guns. The location is a short walk to the main Kyoto station and located on a quiet street away from the hustle and bustle. Definitely will come back here if I visit Kyoto again.
Excellent hotel overall: fantastic location, helpful and courteous staff, great amenities, and comfortable room. I’ll stay at 20 Pieces any time I’m in Kyoto.
Awesome Hotel. Awesome Location. We had a wonderful, convenient stay in Kyoto.

Really beautiful and unique hotel. Clean, convenient location. Rooms were spacious and lovely.
We had a small issue with our first room and they quickly remedied it with a move including handling our luggage while we went sight seeing.
They have tons of neat items you can “rent” for free like massagers and board games.
Rooms were really well equipped with nearly full kitchens which saved us money with eating breakfast in the room that we got from grocery stores just steps away.
The people were over the top friendly and never once said no to any small request.
Easy 5 stars.

Staff was amazing and super helpful. Stayed in Loft A and it’s got 2 bunk beds and a big sunken living room. Plenty of floor space. Good with or without kids. Water pressure is amazing. Laundry is quick and easy. Lots of amenities in lobby to “rent for free” during your stay. Everything from kitchen appliances if you want to use your kitchens to cook all the way to Polaroid cameras to use during your trip. Super cool idea! Very close to Kyoto station and donQ. Loved this jotel

Very convenient as it’s a blocks from the main train station. We got the room that had 4 beds and it was extremely spacious for our family of four. The property is close to various restaurants and bus stops. Would definitely recommend and I have nothing negative to say about our stay and would definitely stay when back in Kyoto
