There is one hostel that I always inapan in Kyoto, Piece Hostel name. I know this hostel in 2015 when I first went to Kyoto, when it was a new hostel boutique open and immediately seized attention because of its architectural design.

When I came to Japan again, Piece Hostel became the first name I chose to visit Kyoto. Book via Agoda, I immediately thoughtlessly chose this hostel as a place to stay in Kyoto.

Strategically, this hostel is very strategic, just 5700 meters from Kyoto Station. Access can be through the back door of Kyoto Station, just walk 8 minutes and have reached the Piece Hostel.

Directions from station to Piece Hostel

The location of Piece Hostel is in the midst of a tranquil settlement. In addition to the nearby Kyoto Station, it is also close to shopping and restaurants. Also close to Kawaramachi Dori, one of the shopping streets in Kyoto.

Problem access is important right? Close to the station means it's easy to go anywhere. Moreover Kyoto Station is a great station that makes it easy access to many other cities in Japan.

Piece Hostel is famous for the flashpacker and budget traveler. The budget range for this hostel is middle. So reasonably priced for Japanese size.

Artsy

The famous Piece Hostel network has artsy hotels in every corner, from architecture to interior. Building facade Piece Hostel Kyoto box only, minimalist. The color is monochrome, white, the whole hotel blend color is monochrome, white alloy, black, also gray.

The unlit lobby section, connecting with dining and kitchen. Outside there is a small rear garden that blends with the facility to wash clothes with some washing machines.

Having booked via Agoda, I just checked in. The hotel staff asked for a passport to be scanned and we could go straight to our room. For a hostel, room options are many, ranging dormitory, private room to family room. Because there is a budget, I chose a private room for two people.

From the lobby to the room, I do not get tired of enjoying the corners of an artsy hotel. Starting from the walls, floors, until the room nuance of monochrome. This hostel is minimal decoration, minimalism is the decoration for this hostel as a whole.

Amenities

The name of the hostel facilities would require people to be independent, but at least for the size of the hostel, the facilities in Piece Hostel is complete. Starting from the front desk, there is a small lobby with a waiting room, there is also room to deposit goods, available bicycles for rent. There are 3 iMac that can be used by visitors in the lobby, the internet is super fast, yes its name in Japan. The front desk / lobby doubles as well as the cafe which is open every afternoon.

A spacious dining area, provided a long table and full cutlery. Free breakfast is available with many menus, ranging from cereal, bread, to rice and salad. Free tea and coffee are available for 24 hours. Even if you want to cook yourself, there are some cooking tools that can be used.

The bathroom is clean. Suppose not accustomed to the hostel because sharing the bathroom, no problem, hotel staff guarantee the bathroom in Piece Hostel clean. Perhaps this is the hostel with the cleanest bathroom I've ever visited.

There are two places to relax. There is a spacious lobby with various facilities. The little garden on the back side is also a small park upstairs. Even relaxing in the lobby can. For entertainment provided a fast internet. In the back area is usually to relax the guests who was washing clothes with washing machine available. Oia, the washing machine is paid yes, but it's cheap.

Facilities for guests staying are provided towels and slippers. For a hostel it's enough. My private room has a bed and a television, a small compartment for things, a soft mattress and a thick blanket. Small window on the side rooms with views of the surrounding houses.

Rate and Booking

Rate for this hostel is pretty affordable according to Japanese standards. For private rooms worth 800 thousand if they are converted into rupiah. If for me both with my wife's budget. For me is quite comparable with the existing facilities, distance and strategic place.

For reservations can be many ways. However, I chose to use Agoda because it is easy and there are points I can use. If abroad is indeed an Agoda is my mainstay, powerful to find a place to stay as you wish, reference and wallet. Oia, 2015 ago, Piece Hostel is awarded from Agoda as well. So go ahead.

The conclusion is, if looking for a hostel that is strategic, complete facilities and friendly in pocket during in Kyoto, Piece Hostel is the right choice.
