The staff was really kind and always available if you had any questions, they gave us good recommendations and good advice for how to get to arashiyama in the fastest way possible (better than google maps). The room was lovely, well equipped and spacious.

Loved this hotel! Fantastic location, stylish rooms and helpful staff. the balcony in our room was great for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. The kitchenette was very useful and meant we could make our own breakfasts. Easy to reach from the train station.

Location is ideal. Nice and cozy restaurants 3-5 min away hidden in alleys. The lounge is a fantastic idea, where you can finish your day with a beer, Sake, and snacks. Room size is good with coffee machine (Nespresso). Clean, neat and friendly staff. The breakfast is also great with two choices (meat or fish) made with the delicate Japanese touch

Beautiful hotel in the middle of Gion. The room was spacious, with a tatami space and beautiful details. Free amenities include very nice bath salts. The hotel is relatively small and has a very calm and cosy atmosphere. Our room did not have a view but the room itself was so nice that it wasn’t an issue.

    The location is great, basically across the road from the station, about 5 to 7 minute walk. From there you can get to anywhere in the city quite easily. The hotel is new and much thought has been given to the decor. It is stylish and interesting with a Japanese touch. The rooms have a warm feeling with warm coloured floral carpets and wood features in the furniture. The bed linen was great and the beds extremely comfortable. The bathrooms are modern and the water pressure excellent.

    The hotel is simply wonderful! Our room was simple yet well renovated, stylish, modern and new too. Totally worth the price and location is great too. The hotel is situated on a main road in Kyoto city centre, easy access to most of the places. There is a common spa, sauna and public bath area but we didn't get to use them. Would recommend to those who're traveling to Kyoto!
