Frommer's "Sister hotel to the famous Westin Miyako in eastern Kyoto, this is a popular choice near Kyoto Station due to its location near the terminus of both the Shinkansen and Kintetsu trains." Full review
Fodor's "This gleaming white edifice with two protruding wings looks like it would be at home in any American city." Full review
Star Service "Located 200 meters southwest of Kyoto Station's Hachijo exit, this property is a utilitarian powerhouse compared to its upscale sister, the incomparable Westin Miyako." Full review

Many staffmembers here speak limited English, and special requests can often fall by the wayside.

"New Miyako Hotel is a large, upper-middle-range property with close to a
thousand rooms in a convenient location next to Kyoto station." Full review

The interior of the hotel have a distinct corporate chain vibe, but rooms are spacious, with flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi. Train noise can be a problem in some rooms -- and light sleepers might want to choose rooms facing the courtyard, which are quieter.

Frommer's "The overwhelming reason to stay at this 40-some-year-old property is its superb location in Gion...rooms are updated but tiny. " Full review

There are no views, but my recommendation is to ask for a room on a higher floor facing west, with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the tiled roofs of Gion.
