​Our stay was absolutely phenomenal and truly elevated our entire trip to Kyoto. From its stunning design to its impeccable service, every aspect of this hotel exceeded our expectations. ​The location is, without a doubt, a 10 out of 10. Situated directly on the banks of the beautiful Kamo River, the hotel offers a tranquil escape while being just steps away from the heart of the action. We loved starting our mornings with a coffee overlooking the river. In the evenings, we could simply walk out the door and be in the middle of the vibrant Pontocho Alley for dinner, or take a short stroll across the bridge to explore the historic Gion district. The convenience is simply unmatched. ​The room was a perfect blend of modern luxury and Japanese elegance. It was spacious, immaculately clean, and thoughtfully designed with incredible attention to detail. ​Finally, the service was exceptional. Every staff member we encountered was professional, warm, and genuinely welcoming. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable. ​If you are looking for a special place to stay in Kyoto that combines a prime location with a luxurious and peaceful atmosphere, this is the place to stay.

We were disappointed when we checked into our room. The room appeared dated and run down and not well spaced out. So we decided to check out early.

It was a very nice hotel. Within walking distance to great restaurants, shopping and entertainment. Check in time is 3:00, so don’t expect to check in early. They don’t allow that. We had to pay $84 USD to check in at noon. I would totally stay here again. Had great room on the river.

Amazing experience for a centrally located hotel

The hotel is centrally located for tourist visits and of easy access with public transportation. The staff is extremely helpful upon request. I liked the modern and automated approach for requests: you send a request via your mobile phone. I enjoyed the garden view. While there is no outside view, you feel like being in a tropical forest. Amazing experience.

Loved my stay here. I stayed in the garden view room and it was amazing. The staff was friendly and the area was safe and walkable. The breakfast is really good and worth it if contemplating adding it to your stay. The space was quiet and clean. Would definitely stay here again.
