We love love love this hotel. In the perfect spot in Gion. So clean and cozy and great. It was quiet and well taken care of. The check-in and checkout process was easy and smooth. The room itself was clean and had so many great amenities. The bathroom and the bathroom products were stellar. I took a bath every night. The beds are super comfy. Just a great hotel. You can do your laundry for free! We did two loads in two days and it was so nice. What a gem. I highly recommend and would stay here again.

Fantastic hotel. Staff were so helpful and friendly, even taking our washing out of the machine for us when we accidentally put on a wash that finished in the middle of the night! Room was western-style but with lovely Japanese touches like sliding doors on the windows. The room was huge - the photos don't do it justice. Breakfast is just tea/coffee/juice and a croissant, but it was a nice touch and there isn't space to offer more. You can buy drinks at reasonable prices in the reception area in the evenings. Location is perfect, in the heart of Gion and close to the subway, two rail stations, and bus stops.
