lovely staff and lobby area with a selection of free snacks and drinks to get pepped up for excursions. the stroll to and from Kyoto's busier spots was easy and interesting, revealing lots of dining options. The neighbourhoods away from the main tourist draws are also well worth exploring and the hotel is well placed for several.

I was so impressed with this hotel. Best shower I’ve had in my life. The room was small but had absolutely everything you need, excellent amenities, separate toilet room with additional sink, plus tub and shower were a separate room that you could lock the door and get super steamy while someone else used the sink and counter space. Having that type of space to get ready was refreshing!

Great place. Great lobby and the shower is amazing
I was allergic to something in the room but allergy pills fixed that. Otherwise we had a great stay, and my allergies are not the hotels fault.

It was my second time at this hotel and it was once again awesome. I really appreciated the new laundry setup where we could state which room we were in - a bit less stressful. I missed the pin set up this time round but it was still more organized this way.
Bread I only got to enjoy once - still fluffy and delicious. Get the milk bread when you see it! They rotate options out!

Great location! Not far from the station at all. In fact it’s so convent to quickly hop on the station and it’s only 3 stops from Kyoto station.
The staff were amazing. The rooms were clean. They had bikes available for guests and we were able to ride bikes around Kyoto. I would recommend you stay away from the shopping area as you cannot ride your bikes or park there. My only con of this place is the rooms are extremely small. So it made it very difficult for us to open are suitcases comfortably. Despite that would highly recommend this place!
