We loved our stay at Hotel Alza Kyoto. The staff was polite and kind, and helped forward our luggage to our hotel in Tokyo (for a fee). The room was spacious, clean, and the quietest we'd ever stayed in. It's slightly off the beaten path, yet within 3 minutes of the Sanjo JR station, 5 minutes of the Sanjo Keihan subway station, and within walking distance to Nishiki Market. Kiyomizu-dera Temple is about a 30-minute walk, partly uphill. A bus will get you close to Philosopher's Path. The 7-Eleven down the street was great for morning coffee, snacks, and even noodle bowls. Would definitely stay there again.

Hotel Alza is an absolute gem. It has the feel of a quiet traditional place which it is. It is much more. New and clean and upscale with every modern amenity. The staff are absolutely dedicated to excellent service and friendliness. They may tell you they don't have a buffet breakfast only bento box. However, this breakfast served in your room or downstairs is fantastic.
