Charming hotel in Kyoto located next to a gorgeous park and palace. There's a bus stop a block away and the subway is 10 minutes away. The staff were extremely courteous and helpful despite a minor language barrier. The room was small but clean and well stocked. I would stay here again.

Since the moment we arrived the staff at the counter was really unhelpful! We had two reservations and we asked if it was possible to have the same room but they were denying any change...until we payed extra! They denied breakfast even though I especifically asked for that in Expedia and we had to pay again plus several extras...after traveling the whole day you prefer to pay instead of being denied access to your room, right? At breakfast, if you ask for a simple change you have to pay extra... I understand it's Japan and my Japanese is not the best, but in an international hotel they should have people speaking some English...not in this hotel, sorry. I was excited to be in the same hotel I stayed 11 years ago and celebrate our anniversary but it was my last time there...unless you refund all the extras you asked me to pay. Your call

The hotel is in good condition and room cleaning is done every day (not the case everywhere in Japan), which is very nice. The room is a decent size for Japan, it didn't feel cramped, and there is a closet for you to put your clothes in. It's also quiet, I never hear any noise from outside. For breakfast you have a choice between Japanese or western sets, which do not really change day by day. I stayed here for a week, so it got repetitive. This is a hotel that has the facilities to hold weddings, banquets, has a restaurant with garden view, and a separate coffee shop. They could have a buffet breakfast. The hotel in a quiet area and is right across the road from the imperial palace. It doesn't have many shops and restaurants around it. Dining choices are quite limited, you will have to walk about 10 min to get to an area with some dining options.
