Standard Single Non-smoking · 2 Adults · 1 Nights

We really enjoyed out stay at REF Hotel in Kyoto. The hotel was super spacious, clean and had a minimalist design that felt fresh and modern. We especially loved the renovation work- everything looked new and stylish. Our room had a beautiful view of Kyoto Station, which made mornings extra enjoyable, and the location was perfect, just a 3-minute walk away from the station. One of the highlights was the free-flow beer and beverages offered during certain times of the day, which we managed to enjoy during our stay - definitely a plus point! Amenities were well thought out and conveniently placed right beside the reception for guests to pick up on their own. Another great feature was the free luggage keeping service. They provided lockers that were totally safe and convenient, perfect for travelers who want to leave their bags before explorinig Kyoto. Overall, REF Hotel Kyoto combined comfort, convenience, and thoughtful extras making it a fantastic choice for anyone visiting Kyoto.
