Hello, it is recommended to be near Kyoto station. I lived near Kyoto station at that time, which is very convenient.
First of all, the traffic is convenient. In front of Kyoto Station, there are traffic gathering places and various bus gathering points, and it is also convenient to visit the surrounding areas.
Secondly, it&;s also convenient to buy in buy buy. I think Kyoto is the only place where you can buy cosmeceuticals and yodobashi, as well as Isetan. Moreover, Isetan also has the Lamian Noodles Trail, where you can taste various Lamian Noodles and delicious matcha.
I hope I can help you! Have a nice trip!
