Would recommend.
Amazing hotel, the style was lovely, it had good connections to rail and bus.
The staff were friendly and the washer dry was a nice inclusion. The morning breakfast was really nice and a great way to start the day.
Would definitely recommend staying here

The accommodating size for a tall person was a great plus! Everything was very clean. Towel service was great and having the washing drier in room for laundry usage was very helpful (you need to bring your own detergent, though). Plenty of electric outlets throughout the room.

This was a really nice little boutique hotel, and the washer/dryer, was a very nice added touch, even if it was a little rough on the clothes.
The staff were friendly and helpful.
The only thing that potential guests should know is that, in our room at least, there were no blackout drapes, which meant that it got light fairly early in the morning in late May. (The window coverings that were there did provide good privacy.)

Great place to stay in Kyoto.
This is an excellent place to stay near Kyoto. It's right across from the Toji temple and about 15 min walk from Kyoto station. Our room was decorated in a modern interpretation of Japanese style with elegant features and a lot of beautiful wood. Kitchen and bathroom had full set of amenities, including a stove top, refrigerator and a washer/dryer. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Included breakfast options were delicious.

The pictures of theh otel online do not do it justice. This is a beautiful hotel that mixes modern amenities with old-world charm. It is convenient to the train and just across the street from one of the beautiful Kyoto temples.

We absolutely loved staying at Sunrise Suites! It is a lovely and small hotel right off of a main street, which makes it very walkable to many types of transportation. The staff was fantastic--extremely friendly, so very helpful, and made the stay that much better! The only reason we gave this place a 4/5 in overall ratings was for 2 reasons: 1. The breakfast every morning came to us cold. It was always on time and overall a good variety--it just would have been better warm! 2. The room had an odd scent that appeared to come from the washer/dryer combo. Granted, just having a washer/dryer combo in-room was enough to overlook it. But if that were fixed, it would make this place even better than it already is!

The design of the hotel was amazing! It felt like a traditional Japanese inn, but the room was large and there was a Western-type bed. Kitchen and laundry included. The staff was very cordial and helpful. Local train station was a ten-minute walk.

My husband and I enjoyed our stay at Sunrise Suites. The interior design of the room was lovely and it was super clean. We would normally never take a bath at any hotel but we felt comfortable to use the deep soak tub here. The hotel is situated in a busy intersection and the walls are thin so it can be somewhat noisy (we used ear plugs for sleeping). It is within walking distance to the train station and convenience store. Breakfast is hearty and nutritious (but they serve the same dishes so it got a bit repetitive for me).

LOVED our stay here! The staff was incredibly friendly and kind. Free traditional Japanese breakfast was delivered to our room each morning and the hotel has free bikes for guests to use. Our room also had a mini kitchen area with cooking supplies (pots, pans, kettle, etc.) all provided for us to use. The hotel is in a quieter area of Kyoto and is within walking distance of the main train station, as well as a few sightseeing spots, plenty of convenience stores, restaurants, and shops. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again!

With plus and minus
New Japanese style facilities, very clean. Employees with low knowledge of English. Good connection with the city centre. Very noisy at night due to the road traffic. Our reservation where supposed to have breakfast, but all that we were given was cheap Japanese supermarket food. Not even coffee..

Though it was a hotel, it felt like a home stay. Breakfast is a typical Japanese breakfast, we loved it. And my wife was happy as they catered for Vegetarians as well. Our room had a view of the temple across. The staff were really friendly. It is right in one of the main roads, which could be a problem if you are a really light sleeper. We didn't have any issues.

Wow!! what a hotel. Myself and wife loved this place. We stayed at some good hotels on our honeymoon in Japan but Sunrise Suites was the best by some distance.
The hotel staff were very friendly, in particular, Mr Fuji. He went out of his way to book two tickets to a Geisha performance (as the website was in Japanese) and he even ran after me once to ensure we had the correct directions to go on our day trip.
The location is good, and easy to get to the major sights in Kyoto via train or bus.
The room was cleaned to a very high standard every day.
The breakfast was the same every day but still reasonably tasty.
Although it is expensive, in my view it is worth every penny.

Great value-for-money
The hotel exceeded our expectations in terms of its elegant design and the size of the room. We appreciate in particular the very efficient washer/ dryer in the bathroom and the beautiful view of Toji temple from the rooftop garden. All reception staff spoke good English and were super helpful. We are especially grateful to Mr Toyama who not only arranged our airport transfer from hotel but also passed us some sheets of interesting information on Japanese classics and “ hidden gems” of Kyoto every time we saw him.
A tip for stayers: please ask for rooms on a higher floor zone. We stayed on a ground floor room and could hear the pitter patter of rain on the open rock garden courtyard adjacent to the room.
Otherwise we could not find any fault with this very nice hotel, especially when one considers its very reasonable rates even during the high season of April.

Definite Two Thumbs Up for Sunrise Suites
Beautiful rooms and building. Fairly close to main Kyoto station. Friendly staff. Very traditional ryokan style Japanese breakfast. Would highly recommend this hotel.
