There are only showers :( I wanted a bath

Location was perfect and good value for money

The rooms are very small, even when I booked a double for me and my sister, so big suitcases can be a problem. We also had a problem with the booking of the double room, but the staff were helpful and fixed it right away.

The Gojo-station is right outside the hotel and the breakfast restaurant is three doors down. The shower rooms were clean and spacious and despite the small size of the rooms, we immensely enjoyed our stay at the Pocket Hotel. I would absolutely stay there again the next time I'm in Kyoto.

The bins in the hallway where you take your rubbish were very small and overflowed easily with the number of people staying on our floor.

The accommodation is located right next to several of the exits from Gojo Station (subway) and across the road from a 7-Eleven. The entranceway/common area was nice and clean at all times. The mattresses in the room folded up easily and there were charging ports and reading lights right by the head of the bed. Definitely a small room but that can be seen in the property photos so it was expected.

You get what you paid, the room is small (there is nothing but futons and a small table) but there was no issue since most of our time was spent outside and we only used it to sleep. You also need to be careful of sound since walls are thin and you can hear loud steps on the hallway.

I liked that it was a couple of minutes from Kyoto Station and Gojo station was right in front. In Gojo station you can buy the day bus and train pass, so you dont need to go far in order to obtain it. Additionally, there was a Yoshinoya next door (2 min walk) where you can have a quick and delicious breakfest. The shared bathrooms have all you need (shampoo, toothbrush, etc) and wifi works perfect.

It was very clean. They even provide clean pajamas and towels. Room was bigger than I expected incredibly clean.

I wished there was some kind of mini fridge to store food in the rooms. Or even a common area fridge.

One of the cleanest shared bathrooms and showers. It was located right in front of a subway station which was very helpful, although subways aren't the best ways to get around in the city. Our stay included breakfast which was available at a restaurant next door. I was initially concerned about the rooms being small but we managed and honestly were never there enough to feel crowded. We did laundry twice while there and didn't have any issues.

Warm pod’s water wasn’t 100 degree.

Cleanness of shower and restroom on 2F.

We had the twin room and it was huge. A very comfortable space to stay and very clean facilities. Only a microwave and hot water for the kitchen but close to combini and eating places. Good value for money if you want your own space. About a 15min walk to train station.

The location is very convenient and the amenities and shared spaces were all super clean! The room is very cozy and has good space for storage as well as convenient charging ports. It was a very comfortable stay!

Men's facilities on the ground floor is a bit inconvenient, walking through the lobby to and from the shower.

Lovely little room, plenty space for 1 or two since you'll not be inside much. Good website to check Shower availability etc. Felt secure and safe. Kyoto tower view (very lucky, don't think many rooms had)

I liked everything.

It was very clean and very comfortable for this price. The room is small, but in this city you want to explore and just come and fall asleep peacefully, and for this reason, it was great.

Amazing. Everything was so clean, they have share bathroom for each floor and have everything you need there. Is the first time i stay in a hostel, but was better than some hotels.

Perhaps a kettle in the room. There was however plenty of access to boiling water on the ground floor.

3 options available for breakfast. All quite tasty and enough to see you through to lunch. Location is a handy 10 minute direct walk from Kyoto station.

Absolutely sensational, attentive staff that welcomed up warmly after a late arrival. Location was really central and the shared communal space was also a plus!

Superb value for money. Clean shared bathroom.

All good

Modern facilities and friendly staff.

The mattress was a bit thin for me. Since I had a double room all to myself, I placed both mattresses on top of each other, and it was much better.

Small but cozy room. It would be somewhere between a capsule hotel room and a traditional hotel room. The shared bathrooms and showers are very spacious and clean. The location is excellent and close to the subway. There is a 7-Eleven right across the street

Nothing - it all works well.

From concept to execution, it works perfectly. A twin room is ideal for a solo traveller, allowing extra space. Each room has an extractor fan, an air conditioner/heater and windows. The key cards are gender-coded, so men cannot come onto the womens’ floor or into the womens’ toilet and shower space, and vice versa. The amenities are excellent - private locking shower and changing cubicles within the larger shower zone, hair dryers, towels - you never feel cramped in the shared spaces. Pocket Hotel has several locations and all are good value for money and somewhere you could comfortably stay for even a longer period of time.

It was super clean, it had everything you may need during your stay, the room was really cute and around the hotel was full of restaurants. I was able to eat so many different things everyday just by going out of the hotel door.
