A beautiful unique boutique hotel in a quiet neighborhood close to Kyoto station.

The hotel staff were exceptionally attentive and genuinely kind. They went out of their way to assist with any request and ensured everything was taken care of with great care.

What a fascinating glimpse into the seminal roots of Nintendo's rise from a simple card making company into one of the most powerful Video Game companies in the world. Marufukuro has it all...a stunning architectural example of old world craftsmanship vs. Tadao Ando's modernist visions. The neighborhood is quiet and tranquil and is teaming with herons as a lovely bonus! Hotel staff is warm and goes above and beyond.

Spacious rooms with full amenities and bathroom equipped for both Japanese and Western preferences. The lounge was a lovely spot to unwind after a day of sightseeing in the Summer heat, with complimentary wines, beers and snacks - our family especially loved the Chazuke supper!

이 호텔에 오기위해 교토에 왔습니다. 두번째 경험이었고 제가 가본 제일 좋은 호텔중 하나라고 생각합니다.

This place was incredible. Very helpful and accommodating staff. Amazing service.

It's a wonderful hotel with professional and welcoming staff who are always ready to help. The room was well-maintained and clean in a way I had never seen before.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Marufukuro. A real gem of a boutique hotel. Attentive service, gorgeous bar, close to a metro stop and beautiful rooms. It was the highlight hotel of our 2 weeks Japan trip. Our guest relations manager Chou was super friendly and knowledgable. The hotel is less than 5 mins walk to Shichijo Station on n the Keegan line, with easy access by train directly to Gion, Pontocho, Kiyomizu Dera Temple, and Inari temple. As well, the same line goes all the way to Osaka. It’s a straightforward walk of 15 mins to Kyoto station for Shinkansen, or a quick taxi ride.

Absolutely amazing hotel full of history! The complementary features were such a pleasure and the hotel staff were brilliant. A short walk to the station kept us well connected. Really beautiful location and property - cannot recommend enough!

Japan has some of the best customer service in the world, but the staff here stood out. Andrea gave us an impromptu tour of the facilities and went out of her way to help us. The attention to detail when it came to the decor was outstanding. If you love Nintendo, this is the place to stay. It definitely surpasses a 5 star hotel. It deserves a 6!!!!

The room are beautifully appointed and designed. The beauty of the building is only surpassed by the attentive and ever so welcome and a helpful staff members. I hope to return someday.

Quite simply, the best hotel I've ever had the pleasure to stay at. Beyond luxurious and special. Would stay again in a heartbeat.

This hotel is incredible - if you are interested in the history of Nintendo before Mario came along, you will fall in love with the library and all of the wonderful touches around the hotel. Staff all so friendly and welcoming! Highly recommended.
