Cross Hotel Kyoto

Cross Hotel Kyoto

8/10 Good
"Loved the location, staff was friendly and helpful with directions, making calls to restaurants and calling taxis for us. Most of them had good English. Room was clean, breakfast buffet good but sometimes the breakfast area was overcrowded and staff could not keep up with replenishing food. We had a problem with AC/heating. Our room was frigid, we reported it to staff, they reset the thermostat and the room became broiling hot the next night. We reported the problem again and were given a different room for the last two nights. It would have been nice for them to do this after the first night of problems. Still, we would go back because of fabulous location."
