Өте кең, 25 шаршы метр. Дәретхана, душевой кең. Қонаққа керек-жарақ әр қабатта коридорда тұрады. Орамал, тіс жуғыш, дәретхана қағазы - қажет жағдайда есіктен шығып, коридордан еркін алуға болады. Қызметкерлер өте ашық, көмектесуге дайын. Уақытша HDMI кабель сұратып алдым. Ертерек орналасуға мүмкіндік болды. Егер жүктеріңіз ауыр болса, құлыпқа байлап тастап кетуге болады. Бәрі тегін. Халаттары ыңғайлы, түймеленеді, белдігін байлап жатпайсың. Қоқысты күнде шығарады. Онлайн орналасуға Playmarket-те қолданба бар. Электрондық кілт тасымай, бөлмеге кодпен кіруге болады. Жаттығу бөлмесі бар. Лаундж кең, орындың көп.

I would rate this stay an 11. We initially booked for a hostel that was much more expensive and it was simply not for us. Lucky for that as we quickly found this hotel and it was one of this nicest and most fun stays we’ve had in Japan. The entire staff from the welcome from Umi, Honey and Naomi to the amazing breakfasts we had with the Chef, Adrian, Cody and Kami, to the evening conversations we had at their bar with Tom and Pierre - what an incredibly fun experience. The rooms were really spacious, the breakfast and coffee was delicious (we did not pay for a pre-paid option) and the location was really good. Near the train, near Nishiki Market, a quick train or cab ride to Kyoto Station. Would definitely stay again next time we are in Kyoto and look forward to this company opening other hotels in other cities.

The property is brand new, wonderful design and facilities are immaculate. Even tho they just opened 4 months ago the staff is impeccable, well trained and organized, very attentive and ready to help. Our room at the 4th floor was very spacious and just perfect. Gym, pool and spa a sanctuary that I really enjoyed during our 4 days at the property. Food and dining experience in the property are top notch as well.

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).
