Love the location! Close to Kyoto Station. There’s quite a few hotels in the vicinity, but the location of 22 Pieces was a street or two from those - so the hotel itself was in a quieter residential area (preferred). Can easily walk to commercial area with restaurants, convenience stores and shopping centers from here (everything is roughly 10mins away) but smaller scattered restaurants/vending machines/convenience stores are just a stones throw away. Property is clean!! We stayed 8 nights. They offer trash cleaning and towel changes every 3 days. They let you pick the days that work best with your schedule, but you’ll need to be able to vacate your room between 9AM-5PM. Pragmatic and spacious room. There was only two of us and the room is equipped to fit at least 3 (there’s 3 mattresses). There’s also a spacious daybed by the wine, great for lounging. We got the room with the dining table. Preferred as we actually used it. Room is brightly and well lit. Appreciated the amount of lighting controls and dimming options. There’s also a well stocked (with utensils and appliances) kitchen, thought we mainly used the water boiler and fridge. Love the shoe rack and coat hangers at near the front door. Cannot get over how pragmatic and well placed things were. Really loved the general layout of the room. Bathroom was also very clean and spacious - equipped with two sinks, one toilet, one shower and one soaking tub. The room has blackout shades, but in the morning it also gets a lot of natural light - it’s very comfortable. Other perks - on the ground floor is a selection of rental items (i.e. projectors, speakers, record players, cooking appliances, cameras, etc). Didn’t take advantage of this so not sure on the specifics of renting. Staff - super friendly! They helped me figure out luggage delivery to and from the airport. Thank you so much!!! Depending on the time, you’ll likely see at least 1 or 2 staff at the reception desk.

Only thing I can think of that could use a little improvement (based on very personal preferences) - towel hooks. There was only 1 towel hook behind the bathroom door. Would love if there was at least 2. The sink vanity does have a long bar for hanging towels, but as the bath towel is larger - when it’s hung on that bar it almost drags on the floor (I eyeballed it and didn’t actually test it out since I didn’t want to risk my towel touching the floor) < it was just a little too close to the floor for my comfort.

The room was very clean and modern. Our room was self-contained with a small fridge, microwave, hotplate, and basic kitchen appliances. It was close to shops and the train station and offered some amenities that we could use if we needed them. The staff was friendly, polite, and eager to answer any questions. The area of the hotel was quiet and easy to walk to other places.

Our stay was for four days, and we could pick 1 day that the cleaners could come in and change sheets and clean. However, rooms are not cleaned daily, and sheets are not changed daily unless you pay an extra cost. The beds are on a deck/platform which makes it very low and hard to get off if you have problems with mobility.

This was hands down, the best accomodation we stayed at in Japan. On entry, the staff were fantastic and always very helpful. The complex and the rooms are very modern and the rooms were just incredible. So much space and all the amenities are provided for you. We were only 2 blocks away from Kyoto station, but incredibly surrounded by surburban housing(and it was so quiet). Very easy to get around and close to everything....If you stay in Kyoto, you MUST stay here

There is nothing we did not like...the place is brilliant

The hotel room is extremely spacious with filled with contemporary design element throughout that we fell in love with the moment we checked in, and feel at home every night we returned from our big day outings. Staff were all very welcoming and helped with all our queries regarding our local area. We’ve had a Shinto wedding at the Oharano Shrine during our stay, and the staff at 22 Pieces were genuinely happy for us and congratulated us throughout our stay. We left our iPad in the room after check out and the staff on duty contacted us immediately, and we were lucky to be able to pick it up just before we depart on the Shinkansen.

Nothing in particular, maybe have the option for a large double or queen bed, instead of 3 single beds? We’ll definitely stay at the 22 Pieces when we next visit Kyoto.

The rooms are beautiful with an awesome amount of space. They are in a quiet area of Kyoto but still just a short walk to the station. The staff are amazing, helpful and speak great english. They had the most comfortable beds for my whole trip! They were very accommodating for my baby and had a heap of items you can use for free as well. They have amazing kitchens in the rooms which are stocked with anything you could possibly need.

Check-in isn't until 4 pm but check-out is until 11am. They will also take your bags for you for a whole day and deliver them to your room when you do check-in.

I love everything about this hotel❤️ Def gonna come back again. The room is very spacious, and the beds are very comfy. The kitchen and washroom are very modern!! They have a Dyson for your hair! Not to mention the coffee drip🥰 and drinking water. I recommend for family and bestie group. Plus Hina the staff was very friendly and polite. The breakfast set was also very yummy. I really love the jams and big soft bread. The hotel location was very convenient as it is very near to Kyoto station and Aeon mall.

Nothing. I love everything

The hotel was really clean, and the staff were very friendly and super helpful. Our room was really large, quiet and well-presented. We booked the room with the outdoor space and it was so nice to see a tranquil space from the large windows. The bathroom was really spacious and had a large bath - perfect after long days full of walking. Overall, a wonderful stay!

The hotel itself is in a great location to the train station (less than a 5 minute walk). The only thing I would consider if going back to Kyoto is the location. I feel that most of the main sights to see are on the other side of the train station. We love walking around to see everything, so it just made for longer days with lots of walking! But, if you don't mind being out of the hustle and bustle, then this hotel has everything.

The room itself was great - well lit and very spacious. I paid for one of the garden rooms and it was lovely and airy. We were looking for an aparthotel and this seemed to be one of the better options in town. It's relatively new, fixtures are all modern and in good condition. You can borrow items to use in the room (that's their 'thing') which is a fun idea and acutally useful if you need some differnt cooking equipment. There is a decent coffee machine in the reception with free coffee available in the mornings.

It's an aparthotel so there are limited communal areas (just the reception). Not an essential but I personally enjoy a lounge or similar where possible. Check out was 11 which seemed a little early to be but perhaps is the standard in Japan. Other than those little things everything was great.

Easy walk from Kyoto station. Aeon mall with shops and restaurants 5 mins away. Staff super friendly with great English skills. Comfortable room with 3 single beds, divan and dining table. Plenty of room for 3 adults and luggage. Be aware that beds are on a raised platform so if you have mobility issues will be hard to get in and out of.

Nothing. Though laundry facilities would have been a bonus. (There is laundromat nearby but i wasn’t confident to use with my non existent Japanese).

Amazing location, amazing hotel building and great staff. Luckily my wife speaks Japanese so we did not need bi-lingual staff, but it was great they had them there. We have a 2 year old so needed to cook our own food a lot of the time, so having the facilities in our room was amazing for us. Size of the room, bath and everything was literally perfect. Thank you.

Nothing at all.
