I like the design of the hotel, the bedrooms and even the bathrooms. It’s very new and well designed.
Half the room has a tatami with space for three futons, and the bathroom has a separate design so one area for toilet and one area for bath and shower that can be used separately.
The staff it’s nice. No restaurant, but they have facilities for cooking, laundry, and movies. They also have a rooftop for when it’s not raining.

Hotel Imagine exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, the staff provided warm, attentive service, making me feel truly welcomed. The rooms were impeccably clean, elegantly designed, and equipped with modern amenities, offering both comfort and style.
The hotel’s location was perfect—convenient yet peaceful—allowing for both relaxation and easy access to Kyoto Station.
Every detail, from the bedding to the thoughtful touches throughout the hotel, showcased their commitment to excellence. I highly recommend Hotel Imagine to anyone seeking a modern Japanese tradition experience. I can’t wait to return!
