The Ace Hotel is centrally located in Kyoto, which makes it perfect for business and leisure. We stayed in a Historic Double queen room (#214) and absolutely loved it. The room was huge, well equipped and very quiet. The hotel staff is engaging and refreshing, always willing to help where needed and incredibly friendly. The hotel itself is beautiful, full of modern art and has impeccable interior design elements.

I usually have 5 star reviews for other Ace hotels but this one missed the mark. The location and rooms are great but both of the restaurants were lacking in service. The staff seemed overworked and it felt chaotic

From the moment we arrived we were welcomed by excellent staff. The hotel itself is fabulous and the vibe of the hotel was great. Simple things like organising taxis takes away the stress if your Japanese is limited. Great stay in Kyoto

We had an absolute blast at Hotel Ace. The building itself is a stunner, and the rooms are so cozy and well-equipped. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, and the place was spotless. I can’t get enough of their coffee shop—it’s the perfect spot to start the day. And their Italian restaurant? Chef’s kiss. We even had a little hiccup during my stay, but the head manager was so understanding and went out of her way to make things right. Overall, it was a luxurious and unforgettable experience. Thank you so much.
