Simple, thoughtful design, excellent comfort, and unbeatable value. This place truly delivers on every level.
sequence KYOTO GOJO
I stayed at sequence hotel KYOTO GOJO and had a generally positive experience. The facilities are modern and well-designed—the ground floor has a restaurant and what looks like a lounge area, while the entrance and lobby have a fresh, non-traditional hotel vibe that feels more like a lifestyle space. Room cleanliness was decent, but I was surprised that housekeeping only came every other day. If you want fresh towels, you need to ask for them yourself—something I found inconvenient. I originally booked four nights but checked out after just two due to this. On the plus side, there’s no bathtub—just a shower—which I actually appreciate as it frees up space and makes the bathroom feel more efficient. The room itself is quite spacious, which is impressive given the price point in Kyoto; the value-for-money aspect is solid. The overall ambiance is sleek and minimalist with a dark-toned design that gives it a stylish, contemporary feel. However, the layout of the sink and bathroom area seems a bit awkward, especially without a tub—there’s some unused potential in the space. Service was unremarkable but not bad—no one mentioned the free drink offered daily during check-in (though it’s visible near the elevator), and the basement level features a steam room and hot tub, though I didn’t get to try them. Unlike many Japanese hotels that offer complimentary water or coffee in common areas, this one doesn’t—so that was a small disappointment. Overall, if the rate is reasonable, it’s worth considering. My booking was around $500 per night, which I found acceptable, but I’d hesitate at a higher price.
