sequence KYOTO GOJO

Excellent value for money and we enjoyed our stay here. The hotel is very clean, and our room felt enormous (especially after getting used to small Tokyo standards). Location is convenient - one subway stop away from Kyoto station and many bus routes nearby. This is in a slightly quieter part of town but still just a 10-15 min walk away from the downtown/shopping area. They provided drink tickets for the downstairs bar every night, which was a nice bonus. We did not buy breakfast with the room - there are plenty of convenience stores nearby, as well as a Komeda’s coffee (which provides a small free breakfast with purchase of a beverage) just down the street. Others have complained about availability of laundry machines but this was not an issue for us. I also appreciated that there was an option to pay for laundry with Suica card!

Our stay was truly enjoyable, thanks to the excellent facilities and thoughtful details throughout the hotel. One highlight was the public bath/spa, which offered the perfect way to unwind after a full day—whether that meant exploring the beauty of Kyoto as a tourist or decompressing from a long day of business meetings. Breakfast was another strong point. While the buffet wasn’t the most extensive, the quality more than made up for it. We particularly appreciated the freshly made items like pancakes, a classic English breakfast dish, and a tasty avocado sandwich. The complimentary daily drink for overnight guests, sometimes accompanied by a DJ set, added a nice touch of flair and relaxation to the experience. The location was excellent as well—within easy reach of Kyoto Station for day trips or train travel, and just a short walk (around 10 minutes) to the heart of the city’s shopping district. The staff were also exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The house-wear offered and the hotel amenities with the signature 'sequence' fragrance were truly excellent!

Very well placed , super modern and very comfortable

Well maintained 4 star hotel with a good facilities such as restaurant, bath and sauna. Rooms are clean and spacious (for Japan). They do offer free welcome drink in a bar in the afternoon ;-) . Bath and sauna are clean and pleasant to use.

The location was great—just a 10-minute walk to Nishiki Market and the Samurai Museum, and about 25 minutes on foot to Gion and the Pontocho area. The famous Ninenzaka and Kiyomizudera area is also easily accessible with a short 15-20 minute bike ride. Plus, the hotel provides bike parking, making it convenient to explore Kyoto. The bath and sauna area was another highlight: very new, clean, and incredibly relaxing. They are separated for men and women, with access alternating each day between the bath and the sauna, allowing guests to enjoy both experiences during their stay. I also loved that they provide everything you might need for a comfortable stay, including pyjamas, slippers, and a full set of toiletries.
