Granvia Hotel Kyoto - Kyoto

The Granvia Hotel Kyoto is an integral part of the JR Kyoto Station Building, which consists of a department store, museum, musical theatre, train station and an underground shopping mall. The Nishi and Higashi Hongan-ji Temples are within a 5 minute walk while the major shopping and nightlife sites of Gion, Pontocho and Shijo Kawara-machi are about 5 minutes subway ride away. This large, 15 storey Granvia Hotel Kyoto features a wide range of conference and meeting facilities and has over 10 multi cuisine restaurants. The centrally located and high standard Granvia Hotel Kyoto has spacious, contemporarily decorated rooms and is ideal for business or leisure travellers.

The 539 large guestrooms and suites feature a blend of contemporary and traditional décor. All of the guest rooms are comfortable, with all the facilities of a home away from home and offer internet connections in all rooms. The bathrooms are in very good condition with grey tiled floors and black and white accessories.

The hotel features include 11 restaurants, 3 bar and lounges, 12 meeting and banquet rooms and a wedding chapel.

The lobby is very large and elegant, decorated in black marble and has a calm atmosphere due to the clever lighting and plenty of seating areas. There are modern objets, paintings and art-work scattered around the lobby and is very chic. Guests would not imagine that they are above a major station but the architecture can be seen from the huge glass windows from various vantage points. A cafe bar is just situated off the main reception area.

The hotel is encompassed in a 15-storey high rised building easily recognisable in steel and glass from outside from station. From inside the station, the hotel has a huge glass front with the name engraved and is easily recognisable from the opposite side of the station. It is signposted throughout the station.
