This hotel is a

This hotel was very nice. The staff was very friendly. It wasn’t too far from everything. I would say about 15-20 min away. The laundry was okay. It kinda stained some of my white clothes. But I won’t put the blame on them. Just beware. Overall great stay and would def stay there again. I also did the private bath (both). They were decent. Relaxing.

The room was spacious, clean and well laid out. Happy Hour was amazing. The soaking tub in the room was a highlight for the trip. Great stay! Couldn’t be happier.

Extremely fabulous hotel, we will definitely stay again

Definitely recommend

The best hotel you could wish for in Kyoto. Excellent Gion/historic district location. The room was very comfortable. I felt like I had definitely experienced Japanese style interior design. Glad I stayed here. Definitely would stay again.

Amazing hotel and fantastic location The private bath rooms and sauna is the best I will come back

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is great as well as the room and facilities. Their spa facility which guests can reserve for a reasonable fee. Everything is great except the breakfast menu is limited. Their staff is also very friendly. We would come back again!

This is a beautiful quiet property in the heart of Gion. The amenities are thoughtful and the room was very clean and comfortable.

Great location. 5 minutes to the right was one area and to the left, another. Property is beautiful and so quiet. A great reprieve from the busyness of Kyoto.doesn’t look like much from the street but … thru the curtain is a beautiful oasis.

Great hotel and wonderful location. The hotel has local charm and character. Be sure to reserve the spa rooms—if I remember it came out to about $30 for over 90 minutes. The spas are private and great after a long day of exploring. Great boutique hotel!

Great location and loved the extra perks like the unlimited water, the free laundry, morning coffee and croissants, cookies in room and beverages in fridge. Beautifully designed and decorated. Super comfy sheets and bed/pillows and towels. Shower amazing. Only con was that you can’t see outside or open the windows. Since room has two large twin beds and a lot furniture, can then feel a bit closed in. Would try to get an even larger room to overcome this minor issue. Helpful and keen staff.

Lovely hotel, very comfortable.

Amazing stay and that alone doesn’t do it justice. Hidden gem - location, location, location. It’s quite difficult to believe this is a three star when in fact everything about it far exceeds anything we’ve experienced at 4+ locations. We will be back and highly recommend to anyone considering visiting Kyoto. You won’t be dissapointed.

Staff was delightful and wanted to make sure you were happy. Free drinks during your stay and bread available in the am. Best of all free laundry.

Hotel is quite pretty, we enjoyed our stay here. Room felt small but quaint. Some rooms have no windows (our room was one of these). Bathroom felt spacious and modern. Hotel has laundry (free) and simple spa services that can be booked. Location is very good, walking distance from a few large temples in Kyoto, with good bus connectivity to many of the other key / well known attractions in Kyoto.

Yes

Since they were eco-friendly the rooms were never cleaned, the trash was never removed and clean towels were left outside your door.

Beautiful hotel with with clean rooms and amenities.

Laundry service would be better if have in the room. Wait too long to use it in the evening/nighttime. Also, the dryer is not efficient in drying the clothes & the laundry room is too stuffy/hot (no ventilation). Other than that, the room is very nice & spacious. We appreciate the free water bottles, drinks (juices, beers), snacks, tea bags & coffee pods), tea kettle, coffee maker & other amenities.
