I had a generally pleasant stay at the Keio Prelia Hotel Kyoto Karasuma-Gojo. The hotel boasts a great location, making it easy to explore Kyoto's attractions. The room was a decent size, and I appreciated the daily housekeeping. However, my experience was slightly marred by some staff communication issues, which impacted my overall impression. That said, I'd still recommend it for its comfort and convenience.

During my stay at the Keio Prelia Hotel Kyoto Karasuma-Gojo, I found the location to be fantastic, conveniently located between the main station and the shopping district. My room was a good size, clean, and comfortable, perfect after a day of exploring. However, I was disappointed that basic amenities like mineral water were not included in the room rate, which felt a bit off for the price. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with some room for improvement.
