About the Hotel
Kyoto is a city where the future and the past co-mingle in a vibrant harmony. As sleek steel structures arise, setting the tone for modern architecture, traditional wooden machiya still line the streets. Kyoto was spared during World War II, and as a result is one of the only places left where traditional Japanese culture and architecture can still be fully explored; Hotel Granvia Kyoto is the perfect place to begin your journey. Incorporated with the customary Asian style is their use of modern furnishings, and an impressively, breath-taking use of futuristic architecture that is part of the Kyoto Station complex. Hotel Granvia offers striking views of Kyotoâ€(TM)s mountainous skyline, and luxury accommodations that combine natural elements with modern conveniences, a full gym as well as fourteen first class restaurants. Designed to meet all of your needs under one beautifully designed roof, Hotel Granvia gives you a private entrance to the wonders of this historic city.

Reviews for Hotel Granvia Kyoto
The Best Hotel!!
Great hotel! Location is A +. Don’t worry about noise. The room is quiet, and of good size. Good beds, (pillows could have been better) , the bathroom was spotless and the shower was hot. Always get a kick out of learning how to manage the controls on the bidet. Kind of fun getting the unexpected squirt up your bottom. It seems like a newer hotel and the decor is very nice. We can’t say enough about the service. We had interactions with the staff on several occasions and they were so accommodating! They have lots of staff on hand to see to your every needs. Really only have one major criticism- the elevator was positioned quite a distance from the room. If we ever return to Japan, for sure we’ll be booking our stay with Granvia Hotels!

A very nice surprise
Me and my family have been three times at the restaurant (we lodged in another hotel) Very nice service, good food and prices not very expensive. We preferred have lunch in this hotel (we stumbled her aftter suggestion of peoples in the street) than look around due to our best experience. Coming back from Osaka, transit to Tokyo we had our last lunch at Granvia Restaurant. A piece of Japan that we filed forever.

Most convenient location for those who are traveling to and from Kyoto by train. The complex itself requires a day to explore.
The best part about the hotel is that it is at the main Kyoto railway station and on the other side are the major bus and taxi stands. Any kind of commuting is super convenient. The other important thing to know is that it is part of a huge complex which houses a train station for local as well as bullet trains, huge shopping areas in Lower levels and unlimited dining options ( they close down bit early for our comfort though). There are multiple convenience stores in the vicinity as well. Checknin is strictly 3 pm and we were told that early checkin is chargeable. We decided to take a look around the town instead of early check in. The luggage was in our room when we arrived later. The room had 3 beds as we booked along with all basic amenities and Toiletries for 3 persons. For us, This hotel made more sense as we arrived by Shinkansen from Tokyo, took a dayvtripnto Osaka by train, visited all local areas by bus, taxi and localntrains and returned to Tokyo by Bullet train (Shinkansen). Nothing could have been better located. Stayed 3 nights and liked what the hotel and surroundings hadbto offer.

Great location
I stayed 2 nights and really enjoyed everything. We had access to the club lounge which is well worth the extra. There was a nice selection of beer , wine and canopies and the staff are great. Location cannot be beaten for exploring Kyoto. Hotel Granvia for me was about great service and very comfortable rooms . I highly recommend.
