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.

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.

We enjoyed our four night stay here. Hotel is just perfect for the train station and walking the area. Room was a bit dated but comfortable and super clean. Breakfast buffet was wonderful. Sometimes there was a wait for a table. Front desk was helpful. Many restaurants in the area. Hotel was quiet despite being above the train station.

Location is at the same time extremely convenient and spectacular. Located in the main train station of Kyoto, the setting is truly impressive. Spacious rooms, very nice breakfast, efficient staff,... And obviously very easy for transport : the metro at Kyoto is not so well developed, and it helps to be at the crossing of two lines. Also direct train line towards Nara from this station, and obviously also the shinkansen lines to bring you to other parts of Japan.
