Loved this hotel in every way - the concept, the experience, the service, room size, quality of sheets/bedding, and bath! Only downside is if you don't get the room rate inclusive of breakfast, the charge for breakfast is exorbitant. So we didn't get a chance to have breakfast at the restaurant this time. Wish they offered ala carte!

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel during my trip to Japan, and I couldn't have been more impressed. From the moment I arrived, the service was impeccable—staff were incredibly kind, attentive, and always ready to help with a smile. The room was spotless, beautifully designed, and equipped with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I especially appreciated the attention to detail, like the complimentary green tea, cozy pajamas, and high-tech amenities. The location was also perfect—just a short walk from public transportation and surrounded by fantastic local restaurants and shops. The hotel’s on-site restaurant offered a delicious breakfast each morning with both Japanese and Western options. Overall, this hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. It was the perfect blend of traditional Japanese hospitality and modern convenience. I will definitely be staying here again on my next visit!

My family stayed here for five days. Location is extremely convenient as it's a block away from Kyoto station. We arrived on the shinkansen from Tokyo and it was an easy five minute walk from the exit of the station. Rooms were large by japanese standards. We had two beds and a little couch for a sitting area. Service was also excellent. Everything from checking in, welcoming you back every day, receiving and sending luggage transferres were all done seamlessly. Would definitely stay again when in Kyoto again.

Everything was great overall. One of the best hotels in this price range. Cannot recommend enough. Some minor points: - No towel rack in bathroom. This was the only bad point. - Not much drawer space for clothes (minor issue) - No complementary body lotion or cream (not a problem but a heads up to bring your own)

Solid hotel with ups and downs. Beautiful lobby area. Corner room had excellent features (e.g. remote, automatic window coverings) but wasted walkway space. Generally nice decor with some blemishes (e.g. worn hallway carpeting). Close to busy train station, but otherwise just OK location. Unaware of amenities and little interaction with staff. Overall positive stay but will seek better value on next trip to Kyoto.
