Such a great space — good vibe, clean, spacious. Especially loved the pajama set you can wear to sleep in. We were very happy!
Be prepared — no elevator! (:

Material Hotel is amazing!! The staff are all so kind! The rooms are absolutely amazing, and the bathrooms are so nice!!!! The location was perfect, so much is in walking distance including restaurants, a laundry mat, and the subway! It is a nice quiet street a quiet place to rest after a long day of exploring Kyoto. They have a list of recommended restaurants in the room that we really appreciated! We tried as many as we could and they were all great! I highly recommend staying here!! We wouldn’t stay anywhere else in Kyoto!

The rooftop is amazing. The room was quite big which isn't common in Japan so it was nice. The staff let us store our bikes in the entrance to the lobby.
The main light in the room was very bright and white, a warmer and softer light would be great. Location is a bit far from metro station and many areas of Kyoto (if you rent a bike it's less of a problem).

Room was larger than average but beds on floor, so be aware. Does have a communal roof terrace ?
No lift but as it only has 3 floors not too bad

Great location, if you don’t mind walking you can reach most of the attractions and central areas by foot. Close to subway station.

Very Poor
The room was spacious and a nice bathroom.
Felt very much like false advertising. The rooftop terrace and the bar / restaurant that are advertised on the booking.com page are permanently closed due to the contractor “going bankrupt”, as said by the person on reception when we checked out. This was also the only member of staff we saw, once when we checked in and once when we checked out. There was no one on reception during the hours listed on booking.com which made it extremely difficult as we had issues with our room we wanted to ask about, but with no staff present we couldn’t get an answer. It is a real shame as the hotel has potential to be a nice stay but we booked it for the facilities and none of them were open and no staff around to explain why until we left.

The room was smaller than expected, there was no place to store our suitcases. But it was clean and the bed was comfortable and it's in a good location to see a lot of temples and shrines.

Nice location not too far from downtown. Modern clean hotel room and building. Nice small balcony. Great shower with strong water pressure and all needs (shampoo, soap, towels, etc.). Friendly staff person at front desk.
Well, it was a pretty tiny room (perhaps not so unusual for Japan). OK for one person just to go and sleep, but not much room to sit or do any work or eat anything. No coffee. Street was a bit noisy even very late at night, but tolerable.

It was cozy, clean and comfortable. The staff was very kind and helpful. He brought us some towels to dry ourselves after soaking in the rain when we arrived.
There are stairs to walk. Plan carefully if you have large and heavy luggage.
