Very comfortable, tastefully decorated room. Storage space was on the small side but this didn't bother us too much. The breakfast is incredible, the array of different dishes to try and everything was very tasty. Loved having the bathing facilities too.

Great and easy stay. We were able to drop our luggage off early and by the time we checked in, our luggage was already in our room. It is a small room, but most hotel rooms in Japan are small. We were still able to lay down two carry-on luggages on the floor. The staff are great and helpful. The breakfast is a mix of western and Japanese food. The private onsen is what sells it for me. I would stay there again.

This was a clean, modern, and stylish hotel located very conveniently in Gion and only a short walk from the Gion-Shijo station. The breakfast buffet was fantastic with a lot of Japanese and Western options to start our days of exploration.

I couldn’t have picked a better place for our family. Great breakfast buffet, public bath is incredible, close to Gion district, several temples nearby, train station a short walk, Nishiki Market walking distance. Staff was super helpful recommending restaurants and helping with reservations. Would not stay anywhere else.

The hotel itself was nice and they kindly offered to hold our luggage as we explored our last day in Kyoto. The rooms are very small, with stays of less than 4 days not serviced. The internet was very slow, unable to load YouTube or banking for most of our stay. The laundrette was tiny, with a queue of people at 9.30pm on a Saturday night. If you have any laundry to do during your stay we would highly recommend staying somewhere else or use the laundromat Koinrandoritokutoku Berezagionminamiten 3 minutes down the road which was excellent. It's in a great location close to train stations but ultimately would stay somewhere else next time.
