A long-standing business hotel directly across from Kyoto Station, consider this place if you can get a good deal online.
A little long in the tooth and not the most competitively priced, the Hotel New Hankyu Kyoto does boast a superb location (about one minute north of Kyoto Station). It’s been around for a while and it’s seen better days, but if other places are full or if you can get a great deal online, this will certainly do as a place to lay your head for a night or two in Kyoto – and it’s a wonderful location if you’ve got an early morning train departure from town.
