[2025 Kyoto Stay] Travel Guide for Ref Kyoto Hachijoguchi by Vessel Hotels (Updated Jun)

Located just a 3-minute walk from Kyoto Station's Hachijoguchi exit, this is part of the Vessel Hotel chain. I arrived at the hotel around 7:30 PM and proceeded with check-in. The reception, lounge, and breakfast area are all managed by a single staff member on the first floor. A friendly Korean staff member is working here. I had booked a standard single room and was assigned a room on the top floor, the 9th floor, with a view of Kyoto Station. Within a 3-minute walk from the hotel, there is a Don Quijote store, and within a 5-minute walk, there is an Aeon Mall. However, since I don't shop, I didn't visit these places. The room comes equipped with a humidifier, which, when used alongside the heating, creates a comfortable and warm atmosphere without dryness, perfect for a good night's sleep. Although it's a single room, the bed is quite spacious, providing plenty of room. After a restful sleep, I woke up around 5 AM and enjoyed a half-body bath using an onsen bath additive. This was possible because I was assigned a room with a bathtub. I checked out at 6 AM and participated in breakfast. The breakfast time was extended by 38 minutes compared to the previous day, giving me 1.7 times more time. True to Vessel's reputation, the breakfast was splendid. They showcased their signature dish, a luxurious seafood rice bowl, even in the morning. It takes about 5 minutes to reach the platform for the Kyoto Station rapid train. Thank you.
