A lovely, serene hotel in the middle of Gion. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the staff are friendly and helpful. The fourth floor lounge and the private onsen rooms are great as well.

My favorite hotel I’ve ever stayed in. The rooms were spotless, the staff were always very helpful and attentive. The hotel itself is gorgeous and the location was perfect for being within walking distance to many shrines and temples as well as downtown. Highly recommend and will definitely be staying here again on the next visit to Kyoto.

I love the interiors of this hotel. A mix of modern and traditional design. It is quiet, you hardly see people around (which I like), yet the staff are there whenever you need them. Our room and the hotel in general is immaculate. This hotel also has an in-house bath and sauna at an additional cost. You can reserve these amenities at the reception. It was a great way to end the day after walking around sightseeing all day.
