Great stay, everyone is very helpful
Kunwar, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

10/10 location in Gion. Walking distance to many things and public transportation. Hotel is modern and clean. Rooms are very small and those on the first floor don’t have any natural sunlight so it feels like you’re in a basement. Breakfast was very disappointing, I would not pay for that add-on and instead visit one of the coffee shops or even the Starbucks nearby.
Lisa, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Nice hotel right in the middle of Kyoto. The hot public bath downstairs was a great reprieve after walking all day throughout the city.

lucien, 6-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Rooms are the quietest and darkest. Great for sleeping and immaculately clean. Lobby is cool with a fun bartender who plays US oldie music. Onsen was beautiful. Very well located near 2 train stops. My daughter left her passport in room at checkout, which they promptly returned to us. Very highly recommend!!!!

10/10. Would recommend staying here if you’re in Kyoto. A ton of shopping and dining in the area. Close to the temples and the museum. Really walkable area
Gabriella, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Nice location close to downtown area and close to transportation. Quiet with very nice common areas, amenities and friendly staff. The AC in the room could not keep the room cool and the room was very cozy, so that was a surprise.
Christina, 4-night trip

8/10 Good

Solid hotel with a great location
Daniel, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

great location.

Fantastic location with a great Italian restaurant just around the corner. Disappointed it identified it had a restaurant but this was only for breakfast. Fortunately you could buy drinks here if you wished. Breakfast was good.
Karen, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is the second time I have stayed at this hotel in the last 6 months and it’s a great value for the price. The neighborhood is convenient to lots of hotspots but is quite quiet. The staff does a nice job taking care of the hotel. It isn’t super luxurious but really nice for a short trip to Kyoto. I would stay here again.
