Kyoto Station Access

Mercure Kyoto Station is a 6-minute walk from Kyoto Station, which connects to Osaka International Airport (47.5 km).

“What struck me most is the clever way the designers wove in details reminiscent of Kyoto's Heian era, yet kept everything feeling fresh and modern. Its location is ideal, a quiet spot near the station that makes getting around effortless, though I read some opinions about the walk, it did not seem long for me. It stands out as a comfortable and stylish base for exploring the city.”
