Loved our stay at Hotel Material!
We booked the Mini Room/ Double Room, which was a tad tight for my husband and I, but still plenty comfortable! (We only had carry on’s and backpacks, otherwise it would have been more difficult.)
Room: 5/5. Loved the balcony. Street noise can be heard, but it’s not terrible. Super clean. Great amenities. Super comfortable bed! Slept great!!
Bathroom: 5/5. Lovely toilet & toilet room. Great shower & shower room. Nice towels & amenities.
Staff: 5/5. Great communication prior to checking in, and after checking out. The gentleman (Jeronimo) was super helpful and personable! Such a great guy. The other two individuals I encountered were also nice, but not as great of English (no big deal since I know I’m a foreigner in their country.)
The location was great, but expect to walk a lot to get to the prime locations! They let us leave our luggage on our check-out day (check-out is at 10 am) to allow us to explore Kyoto more. So nice! (Also there is no breakfast or cafe in the building anymore, as a FYI.)
Thank you again so much for a great stay!! Absolutely recommend to everyone for their Kyoto travels! Great value!
