Overview
Mercure Kyoto Station is a 225-room hotel about an 8-minute walk from JR Kyoto Station, built around the concept of "Heian-kyo and the pastimes of the aristocracy." There are rooms that sleep up to 4 guests, including a co-sleeping child, and cribs are available to borrow. Breakfast is a Japanese and Western buffet, at 1,925 yen for children aged 6 to 12 and free for ages 0 to 5. There is no communal bath, onsen or pool, and no parking. The entire hotel is non-smoking, and a convenience store is within a 5-minute walk.
Rooms
The hotel has 225 guest rooms, and up to 4 guests, including a co-sleeping child, can stay in the same room. There are two room types: Superior on floors 2 to 8 and Privilege on floors 9 and 10. Both are 23 sq m and use Simmons beds. The King Bedroom has one king-size bed (180 cm wide), and the Twin Room has two single beds (100 cm wide). For three guests, there is also the 30 sq m Twin & Sofa Bed Room, which adds a sofa bed to two single beds. Some rooms can be used as connecting rooms (reservation required). Some rooms have a bathtub, while others have a shower booth only, with no bathtub. Rooms labeled "Non-smoking / Shower booth" have no bathtub, so if you plan to bathe your child in the room, please check when booking. Co-sleeping is limited to one child per room.
Dining
Breakfast is a Japanese and Western buffet served at Trattoria M KYOTO, the restaurant on the 1st floor, from 6:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. (last orders at 9:30 a.m.). Even on a room-only plan, you can add breakfast at the front desk: 3,850 yen for adults, 1,925 yen for children aged 6 to 12, and free for ages 0 to 5. Breakfast added this way is paid on site after check-in. Allergy-conscious dishes may be possible, so please check when booking.
Family-Friendly Features
Cribs are available to borrow for stays with children. Co-sleeping babies and young children stay free of charge if they use neither meals nor bedding; if they use both meals and bedding, the charge is the same as the adult rate. Meals only or bedding only cannot be chosen. Co-sleeping elementary school children are also charged 100% of the adult rate. These children's rate conditions may differ by plan, so please confirm when booking. There is no communal bath, onsen, private-hire bath, or indoor or outdoor pool, so bathing is in your room's bathtub or shower booth. There is no childcare service either, so a guardian needs to stay with children at bath time and mealtimes. The entire hotel is non-smoking.
