Every aspect of our stay was excellent. Location, staff, lobby, amenities, room size and comfort, cleanliness and quiet. The only thing that could be improved on would be the addition of a recycle bin in the room. We tried our best to keep items separated though! Also the walls could use a little touch up - previous guests seem to not be very careful when using the kettle (running the spout along the wall) and sliding or banging suitcases against the walls. Little picky things! I would 100% recommend this hotel and would 100% stay here again. It was fabulous!

We had a wonderful experience at this hotel. The location is perfect, making it easy to explore the area. The staff were exceptionally kind and helpful throughout our stay, which really enhanced our experience. The room was impressively spacious, especially by Japanese hotel standards, and was kept impeccably clean. A standout feature was the in-room washer/dryer, which we used multiple times during our stay and found incredibly convenient. Overall, we loved our stay and would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the area.

We loved that the hotel was off the Shinkyogoku street where there was lots of shopping and dining, yet the hotel was quite beautiful and peaceful. Our room was clean and spacious and we made good use of washer/dryer to replenish for rest of our trip. Great place to stay in Kyoto!

Great stay

Great hotel! Very clean, very modern. Loved having laundry in room. Staff is helpful. We got coupon for free coffee and donuts at the place downstairs. That was fun. Very convenient to a lot of shops and restaurants but it’s a hike to the shrines and temples on the other side of the river. The lobby is really nice, with free drinks and sake, but I wish the seating were more comfortable.

Perfect spot, comfortable hotel

Right off a main street and near a train stop. The actual hotel entrance is in an alley, but there's boutique stores and some good food located in the vicinity. The hotel is quiet and comfortable with tea and sake service in the afternoon. The staff are very considerate and informative.

We stayed 3 nights in a superior twin room. This hotel is on the small side but is extremely close to the Nishiki market as well as a ton of other shopping. We had a bit of a walk (15 minutes or so) from the Shinkansen station to the hotel, but it was very close to other bus stops and metro stations so it just depends on where you are going. Kyoto attractions are a bit spread out so there is no hotel that will give easy access to all of them, but this was a good option. The twin beds were long enough for me (6'3") and were a bit firm as beds in this country often are. We arrived before check in time and dropped off our bags. The friendly staff but our bags in our room for us before we returned, and they were the only hotel that did that our entire trip. The washer was extremely convenient although all the buttons are in Japanese so it was not intuitive on how it worked. With a little help from Google translate and ChatGPT we figured it out. We did not use the dryer function (it's a combo machine) so I can't speak to how well that worked. Detergent was provided.

A place to stay!!! Pros: It’s in a premium spot: subway is 1 min walk. Shops, restaurants is literally downstairs. Very clean and quiet, staff wonderful.10 min walk from Gion district. Pros +: Practical self service of water, soft drinks and even sake and toiletteries articles. They gave us free coupons to try the Koe doughnuts downstairs (worth it!!) It’s all those little « plus » that made our stay memorable. There is a washer/dryer and detergent, microwave and small kitchen appliances in the room. We were a family of 3 ( one seventeen yr old) room are small, but larger then we expected for Japan (we come from Canada). Courteous and friendly staff and very clean hotel. This is our first time with Tokyu hotel chain and we were very impressed.
