Toyono Packages (Flight + Hotel)

The staffs are very friendly and helpful. They spoke English and provided recommendation and direction. Not too far from food district area in Namba

Located just right outside Universal City Station and Universal Studios Japan itself, this is one of the best hotels you can stay at if you're planning for a trip down to USJ. It can be on the pricier side, but if you treasure your sleep and want to be right outside the gate just as it opens, this is your definite go-to for lodging. Also helps that your bed is just a 5-10 min walk away from the gates after a long day of queuing and walking (and of course playing) at USJ! Our feet and back were aching, and it was a relief we could rest up without travelling via train again. It was also a nice touch to have breakfast the next morning waiting for us downstairs. Amenities are great, you've got your usual heated toilet seat with bidet, good hot shower and tub, aircon and all. Pillows could be better, but all the staff there were great. Breakfast was good too. It was a continental breakfast with some japanese dishes. Free flow drinks and ice cream. There was a kids section at the buffet that had all kids would ever want, fries, spaghetti bolognese and some other fried stuff (no veggies HAHA) and these tables were thoughtfully lowered, so that they could help themselves to them. A very nice touch. All in all, will be back again for our next USJ trip when the Donkey Kong land opens

Rooms need to be updated. Carpet many stains…

Very good location. Very helpful. Upgraded is as we are on our honeymoon

This used to be the Ryokan Tomiya before taken over by M’s Hotel. Our first time staying at an M’s. It happened to be the first day it opened, too, so it was a brand new (renovated) room. The security to get in to the building is great. They hold luggage there for you if you get there early. It is at the northeast corner of Kyoto Station, using exit A5 (stairs only) and it’s immediately on your left side! So, it’s very convenient to get to the train/shinkansen/bus terminals. The room size is phenomenal for the price! So much space to sprawl checked baggage! The double bed performed well, although the head pillows were so soft to the point they flattened and needed to be re-fluffed. The efficiency of the room was amazing! Sink and mirror outside of the bathroom is top notch! Mini-fridge, electric kettle, coffee/tea are available along with their cute mugs. Desk space, two chairs, a small coffee table, one nightstand with a shelf, plugs on both sides of the bed. There is a balcony with safety bars; our view of the city from there was not good, but when you’re exploring Kyoto, it’s a moot point. Overall, cost performance is high! Would definitely stay here again if we ever come back to Kyoto!
