A brand-new business hotel on Shijo-dori, in the heart of Kyoto’s shopping district, Mystays is good value for the money.
Within easy walking distance of all of Kyoto’s major department stores and many nightlife options, not to mention a train and subway station, Mystays is an incredibly convenient place to be based in Downtown Kyoto. Rooms are small, as you’d expect from a business hotel, but they’re well-kept and the staff tries their best to be accommodating. For flashpackers who want to be right downtown, this is a good choice.
