Preparing for a trip is fun. But have you ever had a suitcase full of spare clothes, underwear, cosmetics, chargers, etc.? You want to reduce your luggage as much as possible and stay light. Then choose a hotel with a "washing machine" in the room. There is a washing machine in the room, so pollen and dust can be washed off immediately, and it is also hygienic. If it has a drying function, you can wear it the next day and reduce the number of clothes you need to change. This time, we will introduce a hotel with a washing machine in the guest room, set in Kyoto, which is popular among girls' trips.

Women's trips tend to have a lot of luggage, such as cute clothes, underwear, and cosmetics that you want to wear while traveling. You want to travel as lightly as possible with as little luggage as possible. If you can do your laundry at the hotel, you can reduce the amount of luggage, but the shared laundromat is not very convenient because someone else is using it and you can't use it at the desired time. A hotel with a washing machine in the room can solve such problems.
A hotel with a washing machine in the guest room has many benefits that make a girls' trip more comfortable. You can wash your clothes whenever you want without having to wait in line, and if you wash the clothes you wore on the first day and let them dry in your room, you can wear them on the second day as well, so you can reduce the amount of excess luggage. Even if your clothes get dirty during your trip, you can wash them right in your room for peace of mind. This time, we will introduce a hotel with a "washing machine" in the guest room.
`` Sunrise Suites Kyoto'' has a Japanese atmosphere, with a garden inspired by the rock garden of a Zen temple, and an interior designed by traditional craftsmen from Kyoto.

There is a kitchen, refrigerator, and set of tableware, so why not buy some Japanese sweets from Kyoto and enjoy a relaxing tea time in a Japanese-style space?
The washing machine in the washroom space of the room has a drying function, so you can dry the washed laundry immediately. You can wash your clothes on the first day and wear them the next day, so you can reduce your luggage.
For breakfast, you can enjoy a boxed lunch in your room. You can choose from four types: Kyoto Gomoku bento (chicken & fish), vegan bento, Tamba beef bento, and boiled tofu bento. Let's recharge with a healthy Japanese breakfast and head out for a walk in Kyoto♪ The hotel is located right in front of Toji Temple (Kyoo Gokokuji Temple).

Oakwood Hotel Kyoto Oike is located in the center of Kyoto, just a two-minute walk from Kyoto City Hall Station on the subway, making it convenient for sightseeing. Of the 120 rooms, 104 are hotel-style rooms and 16 are service apartment-style rooms.

Inside, all the rooms are simple yet stylishly designed for a comfortable stay. There are six types of hotel-type rooms, including standard, superior, and deluxe. The service apartment-type rooms with a washer/dryer are available in two types: "Studio Superior" and "Studio Deluxe." In addition to the washer/dryer, the rooms are equipped with a full kitchen with a refrigerator, microwave, and cooking utensils, a 55-inch 4K smart TV, and even a Nespresso coffee machine, ensuring a fulfilling stay.
A washer/dryer is available near the entrance. Even if you stay in a hotel-type room without a washing machine, you can do your laundry at the coin laundry on-site. Also, the "Studio Superior" only has a shower, so if you want to take a relaxing bath in a bathroom with a washing area, we recommend the "Studio Deluxe."
In the morning, you can enjoy a buffet-style breakfast at "Café O." There is a wide selection of Japanese and Western dishes to choose from, including Kyoto-style obanzai, freshly steamed rice, miso soup, Western dishes, bread, and cereal. Kyoto sweets are also available for dessert. Start your day with a breakfast that gives you a taste of Kyoto.
