“Giappo Franca Kyoto,” located in Kyoto’s Sanjo area, is a new-concept accommodation that fuses Japanese-Western culture with manga and art. With 28 rooms total, ranging from singles to family twins and superior Japanese-style rooms, the hotel features comfortable bedding with pressure-distributing futons. The facility includes the “Manga Otaku Room” with approximately 10,000 manga volumes, a game room, a 24-hour lounge, a tea room with ukiyo-e motifs, and yukata rental services, creating an appealing space where art and relaxation unite. With coin laundry, free Wi-Fi, and well-equipped common areas, it’s suitable for extended stays and family trips. The hotel is about a 6-minute walk from Exit 1 of “Sanjo Keihan” or Exit 2 of “Higashiyama” on the Tozai subway line. It’s conveniently located within walking distance of Heian Shrine, Gion, and Pontocho, making it an excellent base for sightseeing. Front desk hours are 9 AM to 10 PM, check-in is from 3 PM to 9:30 PM, and the entire building is non-smoking. No parking available, elevator accessible. The hotel is particularly popular among art enthusiasts and manga fans, serving as a “cultural bridge” and venue for cross-cultural exchange.
