A great stay, although ruined by another guest who drank a little to much and was very loud at night time. Showers and amenities plentiful. Highly recommended for the price!

Excellent spot
It is a 49mn walk from Kyoto train station. Staff are very friendly and very helpful. Some spoiled brats were on my floor. They were noisy, dirty and no class whatsoever. I called the front desk on them to put some order. Other than that, I loved the location. Food, shopping, temples, shrines etc.... It's THE spot.

The manager Kenji is amazing. Very kind man that is the standard for japanese hospitality. His staff, Yuri and Takumi are both kind and helpful as well. Anything I needed, the staff were there for me. Plus, it's in a very convenient location. 10/10. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you so much for the stay. Arigato gozaimasu!

You’re in Gion so you’re in the heart of things in Kyoto. Easy walking from the capsule. I had stayed two weeks before and loved it but this time out I thought it was just ok. Stayed in the fourth floor and is very different from the second floor which I had stayed before. Weird.

For a capsule it’s very well run. The beds are great and everything is close to where you’re sleeping.

Easily the best and affordable option especially if you plan to go solo. Staff was extremely friendly and You’re given a tour. You’re a 3 minute walk from a shrine and around 10-15 minute walk from the shopping strip if you want to look at high end designers or anything in between such as gifts or food. The floor I was on was quiet for the 2 nights I stayed. Bathrooms are public bathroom style so don’t expect much privacy if people walk in to brush their teeth or skin routine. They do have a tiny bar and a small hang out lounge. Check out the roof especially at night to see how beautiful Kyoto is.

The bathroom (the room with a bath and not a toilet) had lots of smallish specks of mold. Everything else was good or fine. Service tried their best to communicate with me in English to varying effectiveness. The room was large and comfortable and honestly had more amenities than I had time to use which is quite nice. I was confused about where I could walk with shoes at first, and it appears that you can walk anywhere in the lobby with shoes on.

Tsukimi Hotel is a very modern-looking hotel with great amenities and a friendly staff. The pod area was exceptionally quiet given how many people were sleeping there in any given night, and the showers/bathrooms were always very clean. My only gripe was that there weren't locks available to secure your luggage, so unless you brought your own you would have to risk it being out in the open in the shared area of your floor.
