As compared to Tokyo’s intensive metro train system, most of the city ’s highlights are very accessible by the subway system alone. Kyoto’s main attractions are spread out and its metro is not as intensive as Tokyo. To reach the highlights, one has to use a combination of metro, bus, JR local trainsd ...lots of walking. Thus, it is vital your hotel is within walking distance to the subway line.
The location of Hotel MONday Kyoto Marutamachi is basically a stone throw away when one took exit 5 , elevator accessible, of the Marutamachi Station of the Karasuma line. Off the platform exit, it is right in front and a the pedestrian cross away.
Aside from its great location, friendly and attentive English speaking staff specially Astri, it has a clean, firm beds, soft pillows and modern rooms.
Also it offers a free shuttle service ( drop off and pickup) to the Golden Pavilion , Miyami and Arashiyama Bamboo Grove. This free shuttle ride by itself shave off a day or two from your vacation schedule and gives one an added time to explore more of Kyoto.
