HIDEOUT

Convenient location close to Kyoto station. Where you can also take buses (More common in this city than the metro in Tokyo or Osaka), that will take you to the major tourist places. (Recommend using the Japan Travel Navitime for planning transport, tells you which bus stops, where, etc.) Comfortable and modern. Quiet and peaceful. Had a ‘snack room’ which was nice. washing machines in basement. (not many or modern). Many little restaurants and convenient stores around. Beware, it is behind (and ‘hidden’) the Tune Stay hotel. So when using google maps or taxi, etc. use this better. Outside on street there is NO sign of ‘The Hideout’. Have to go through the Tune Stay hotel to the back (like a “secret door”) The neighborhood is not the prettiest, but it is convenient for grabbing public transport and trains for connections. Within walking distance. Would consider staying again.

Hideout was the highlight of our accomodations for our whole Japan trip. It's an annexed section of the Tune Stay Hotel. Hideout guests get their own lift AND private games room and a whole bar filled with drinks (soft and alcoholic) and snacks to take at your leisure at no extra cost! This was such a great feature! Pottering about the amazing library was so nice too! Staff and amenities were fantastic and the location is very close to Kyoto station so was a winner all round! There is also a great pizza place called Centro a 3 min walk from the hotel for when you want a change from Japanese food.

The room was very big for 4 people with plenty of space for luggage and for kids to play. Well equipped kitchen so we could cook breakfast. The bathroom was spacious witu a large bathtub. Very stylish and comfortable- wish we could have stayed longer. The free wine and snacks were a nice treat! My family loved this property.

Beautiful clean large rooms with amazing warm staff. The lounge with the free drinks and snacks is nice to have. We had a noisy room due to the rain and the staff refunded us one night and offered to change it for us. Highlight of the stay was the super kind receptions who went out of hey way to help. We wanted to return an item and the receptionist went out of her way to suggest to return the item for us. She went out on the street to speak with the taxi driver and guide him where to take us. Super sweet and helpful.

We booked a suite and the lounge space and snack bar was very well stocked. The snacks/drinks were all free and they provided coins for the wine machine when we checked in. Super awesome to come home and have a night cap. The suite was very large and had plenty of space for all three of us and our luggage. The record player in the room was a nice touch. The hotel is conveniently located 8 mins walking from Kyoto station which was nice to be able to jump on the bullet train quickly!
