Staff were lovely, quick check in, water and tea and coffee in reception were handy when you came back after a long day, rooms were small but perfectly fine, they do classes like calligraphy and origami for free and biscuits in the afternoon for free, it was in a great area, roughly a mile to the station. I would happily stay here again

We really liked this hotel – one of our favourites on the trip. Great bar and restaurant service. The Hotel also had activities such as calligraphy for us to try. The room was a good size as well – we had issues with very small rooms in other hotels.

Clean double room, washroom was on the bigger side since the sink is located outside, free sake in the lobby, good location, friendly staff. The only thing was the AC wasn’t working well so our room was kind of warm and stuffy

Quiet location, wonderful and delicious, made-to-order breakfast. Staff were very friendly and helpful. We needed to ship our luggage to Matsumoto while we hiked the Nakasendo trail and the staff graciously filled out the freight form for us. We will definitely recommend this hotel to our friends.

Imu is 15 minutes walk to the city. The tiny room is clean. No kettle in the room but has a free available coffee machine, hot and cold water in ground floor. Bring your own thermos flask if you are a cuppa lover. Close to combinis and grocery store. The hotel offers food that I found pricey! The nearby grocery store has great varieties of bento, ready to eat food and by 7pm discounted food starts.The grocery offers microwave to warm food. I did not find microwave available within reach in the hotel, did not bother to ask anyway. Has no washing machine in site but 5 minutes walk to the laundry self service. The iron is rechargeable, I found it non-functional. 5 minutes walk to stations. 20 minutes by bus to Gion, Nishiki market is 20 minutes walk or 4 stops by bus then 5 minutes walk to the hotel. 5 minutes walk to the train station that will take you to Osaka. The staff is very polite. They respond to email day after. I asked to receive my package from Jins that i ordered from my earlier trip in Tokyo. I regret to not sending our luggage from Tokyo to Kyoto using the available service in Japan due to trust issues, what should we do if luggages will not receive on time😂? I will try on my next trip to make my trip comfortable. Tokyo station is chaotic and packed! It was very uncomfortable with the luggages We regret not booking luggage locker online, we are not aware of this service. We thought there will be available locker at all times.

Such a lovely hotel. The vegan breakfast set was fantastic and so were the free daily sake samples. My room was clean and bright and the staff were all so lovely. Highly recommended.

We stayed one night at this property. It is quite a walk to a station, but the area around the property has many shops and restaurants. It is only a 5-minute walking distance from the Pokémon Center. Check-in is at a kiosk, and staff can communicate in English pretty well. The property also provides essential toiletries, including a toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, and razor. They helped us store our luggage after we checked out because our Shinkansen is scheduled at 20:00, allowing us to explore Kyoto hand-free. There's also a restaurant in the lobby, serving modern, vegan-friendly Westernized meals. They even offered free sake the day we stayed I want to give a shoutout to the very helpful staff who support us with our mishap with Yamato Transport. Their name are Uehira Ryoma and Matsumoto Haruka. I had my Osaka hotel send luggage to Imu, however, the luggage was arriving late. I had to leave at 20:00, but the luggage was still not delivered at 17:00. The staff helped me call Yamato and my hotel in Osaka to sort out the situation. They even offered to send my luggage to Tokyo if it got delivered after I left. Uehira-san even ran to a nearby Yamato location to figure out the situation. Luckily, the luggage finally arrived at 19:00. I am so thankful for their help.
