So glad we stayed at this gem for our brief visit in Kyoto. I have no regrets except for that we didn’t stay longer! Hosts were so incredibly kind from the moment we checked in until we left. We arrive a few hours early and they let us check in early. Our room was the biggest we stayed in out of all accommodations in Japan. The bed was comfortable and the amenities were so thoughtful and useful. They provide pajamas and they were so soft and comfy! Location was perfect too. Right in the Gion district, but tucked away in a quiet street that felt like you were out of the hustle and noise. There’s a sweet potato cafe around the corner that we frequented and a 7/11 up the street. Highly recommend staying here over all the other chain and fancy hotels. Thank you for having us and making our last nights in Japan so warm and inviting!

This is the perfect location to the Gion District but also easily accessible to other places around Kyoto. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel and its close to Kyoto station. The staff are very kind, friendly and helpful. Its a quiet area as well, so we slept well.

It was a great spot. Very quiet. Easy walking access to lots temples. 15 minute walk to the market. Close to a bus stop and 7/11. Very comfortable bed. Very small bathroom but manageable. We had the breakfast once. It could be improved by the addition of fresh fruit. There’s a breakfast cafe around the corner that opens at 9.

Decent and comfortable but breakfast is really bad

Good location, nice showers, relatively comfortable room with more storage than other rooms. Could not open window properly, breakfast is terrible, and we had quite a bit of misunderstanding with the staff which meant our room wasn’t cleaned our whole four night stay. Customer service not particularly great. Coffee in the machine in the room was good. Bathroom was very noisy.

Wonderful location close to everything in Gion and about a 3 minute walk to buses to get around the rest of Kyoto. Lovely staff, room had everything you could need for a three night stay. Having complimentary pastries, juice and ice coffee to start the day was a fantastic bonus. Would definitely stay again!

Great stay. My room was large - for Japan, the bed was extremely comfortable and there was consistent hot water in the shower. The staff were very nice and accommodating. The complimentary breakfast was subpar but still good for a quick snack to start your day. The location was great, just minutes from busy areas, but in a very quiet location - across the street from a shrine/temple! Had a great time here and would return!

Great value hotel on a quiet street

This is a small hotel on a quiet street in a historic part of Kyoto. The rooms are nice and clean and the beds are western style. The staff are friendly and helpful, even booking us reservations at a restaurant. The breakfast is not fancy- mainly packaged pastries and juice. However, the hotel is a great value, a great location, and the staff go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. If I come to Kyoto again, I will stay here.
