Each room includes a kettle, fridge, safety deposit box, and flat-screen TV. Guests have access to a spa lounge, yoga classes, and bicycle rental to explore the city.

Wellness & Fitness

The on-site fitness centre is complemented by a spa and wellness centre with a relaxation area. Yoga classes and temporary art galleries are offered for guest participation. The hotel also provides strollers and accessible parking, including an electric vehicle charging station.

“This hotel stands out with its dedication to sustainability and guest wellness, and it's the first in the world to earn WELL Certification (v1) Gold Rank.

Good Nature Hotel Kyoto is often praised for its aesthetically pleasing design and spacious rooms, especially suitable for families. Many guests appreciate the hotel's central location, finding it within easy walking distance of Gion and Nishiki Market, also having a convenient air bridge to Takashimaya. The presence of multiple dining options within the building, ranging from casual ramen to Michelin-starred restaurants, adds to the convenience; however, some have noted that certain rooms can be a bit of a walk from the elevators.

the breakfast buffet provided a nice variety of choices. i found the staff helpful . the hotel location is close to shopping areas and the nishiki market.
the room's layout was not ideal for unpacking. there was a large, round sofa taking up significant space without being very comfortable. i noticed the lighting was particularly poor in the bathroom.

the location is good. it was near by many things. the organic theme was evident EVERYWHERE, i loved it.
the entrance was a LITTLE disappointing. it's a long corridor THAT goes to a lift that takes you up to the reception. restaurant set up and use of plastic plates for breakfast was not up to a 5 star standard.
