I liked the spacious rooms. It allowed 3 suitcases to be opened at once. The washroom and shower was large enough to comfortably move around and the beds allowed a good night's sleep.

    We don’t often stay in ‘nice hotels’ so this was such a treat. The service is truly 5 stars. The hotel itself feels very luxurious through every touch. It was nice to have the swimming pool as being Summer and Aussies, we had missed being able to have a splash. Tattoos needed to be covered up, but it was open all day without reservations which was great compared to other hotels. Our view overlooked a Temple, the Kyoto Tower and some mountains. Room was spacious. Location good, close enough walk to Kyoto station. We didn’t dine onsite.

    The best hotel I stayed in while in Japan. The room was large and the bed was comfortable. The detailed design and finishes of the room were outstanding. The bathroom colour for instance was an unexpected yet VERY classy. The staff was friendly and super helpful in helping me get around. I loved the reception area. Also well appointed with a beautiful stream view. The apéritivo till 10 PM was an excellent touch (sake collection, snacks, tea and coffee).
