Fantastic hotel
One of the best hotels you can stay while in Kyoto. You simply cannot go wrong booking this hotel. It’s in the heart of everything, so many stores, restaurants, shopping and train stations near by. We stayed on the 6th floor and it was very quiet. Rooms are big, clean and very comfortable with a very nice shower room. The free coffee in the lobby was a very nice touch. All staff we interacted with spoke English and were so helpful. Staff assisted with luggage transfer as well as luggage storage, both very easy and simple. Thank you for having us!

This was our favourite hotel on our Japan trip! It was in a great area with plenty to walk to, minutes from Nishiki market and about 20-30 to get to the river and Gion area. Lots of buses right outside and restaurants/shopping nearby. The hotel and a lovely, cool lobby with free coffee/matcha machine and one free Sake a day. The room was the biggest we stayed in while in Japan. The staff were lovely and very helpful. They stored our luggage on the last day so we could explore still. Highly recommend staying here.

I choose this hotel for the location. It is very close to the subway, restaurants, and shopping areas. The hotel staff was very friendly and answered all my questions. The room accommodations were great and I was surprised to see that there are laundry rooms available in case you need to wash clothes. This came in handy during my trip. You cannot go wrong choosing this hotel, great staff, great location, quiet, and close to major attractions.

We booked the 3 beds stay and the room was spacious than all our other stays at other prefectures. The hotel is clean and gives free amenities at the lobby (comb, body wipes, face wash, etc). The bedroom has slippers and sleeping robes but for kids, you will need to ask the front desk which comes with small slippers, ducky sponge and toothbrush & toothpaste. The only negative thing is there is only 4 combo washers/dryers that takes a long time to wash&dry for the entire hotel.

This is an excellent value. The staff could not be more considerate or accommodating. They helped us find a restaurant that could take us a fairly late hour and made a reservation. The property appears to be very new so everything was in excellent condition. Breakfast was good value. There is an expansive sitting area with tables on the check-in lobby floor which provided a convenient place for guests to eat their takeout dinners or play games. It promoted a shared experience for guests which is rare these days. Highly recommend it.

This is the best hotel I stayed during my trip to Japan. It’s located in the heart of the city and got dining shopping and dining options, as well as easy transportation. Not sure why this is a 3 star hotel to me is 3-star does not do its justice. Plus, pricing is fair and affordable. Highly recommended.
