Property is on the older side but no huge signs of wear and tear. Rooms are well-sized for the normal. I would have appreciated more counter space in the bathroom and a window that could open even slightly for fresh air, otherwise a great stay.

I almost never leave reviews, but The Celecton deserves one! The staff were very helpful and friendly, and the facilities were great. The hotel was very clean and the public bath was lovely. I highly recommend! The location is also great and very central. Directly in front of the hotel is a bus stop that will take you almost anywhere you need to go.

Decent place to keep your things while you visit Kyoto. Close to Nijō Castle and other sites. Buses run conveniently and you’re close to Ōmiya subway station. Free curry and rice in the evening, can’t go wrong. Food shopping is also close if you’re keeping food in your room.

Good hotel with nice staff

Was there for one night - staff was friendly and helpful, room was clean. The only issue I would mention is that the only window was in the bathroom, not the room itself (as someone who prefers to sleep with the window open that was not ideal)

The Bright Light of my Miserable Vacation

A week before I left the States for my six-week Asian vacation, my knee gave out. It kept me in excruciating pain for my week in Bangkok and a week in Manila. Since I still could not walk when I got to Japan, I turned my three days in Kyoto into five days because The Celecton was such a great hotel at a decent price—located near a shopping street with nice restaurants, and a Lawson and a 7-11 nearby. A free dinner is provided each night, and there are public bathhouses for both men and women.

I loved this spot. Right around the corner is a market alleyway for all your shopping and restaurant needs. Also an easy 13 minute walk to the Nijo station. It made it easy for travel. Another 15 minute walk in the other direction is nishi market place. You can pick any restaurant and not go wrong.
