Excellent hotel! Modern, tons of amenities and easy in and out. Love the keyless entry and the rooms are fairly spacious and include a washer/ dryer combo. Really nice spa/ sauna facility to rent for private rental at a very reasonable rate. Hotel is located within walking distance to all of the action but on the fringe of it so it’s not noisy. Great decor and lots of USB ports , microwave, large fridge, cookware etc… Would definitely stay here again and we loved Kyoto!!

This hotel was absolutely amazing. It was super big for Japan standards, the amenities were fantastic, and it seemed very luxurious for the reasonable price. There’s laundry and a spa, Family Mart is right beside the hotel, and it’s in a wonderful location. The vibes were great, the check in/check out procedures were easy and smooth, and it was an overall amazing experience. We’ll absolutely be staying here on our next visit!

This was the best hotel I have stayed in Japan, and it was located in a quiet and peaceful area. Despite this it was walking distance to gion and major tourist attractions in Kyoto making night strolls very convenient. The room was super super spacious unlike most hotels and it was a very comfortable stay. It was clean and I particularly enjoyed the tatami style room, which was very relaxing at the end of the day. We also used their spa service, which was much needed given the amount of walking you do in Japan. I would stay here again!

Everything about this stay was horrible during our 4 night stay - we had a non smoking room, but almost always there was smoke or food smell coming in the room through the hvac that we had no control over - when we arrived, the room didn’t have enough towels for 2 people - there was no way to request more towels - there was no one around to discuss any issues for the whole duration of the stay, there was always a sign saying “we are away for the moment”, the online service they offered was bad as the person on the other side couldn’t speak English - there was no cleaning of the room or towel replacement - the garbage was not taken out during the whole stay - there was a spilled drink at the hotel door which wasn’t cleaned for at least 3 days When clearing and preparing rooms for new guests the hotel staff just leaves fresh towels on the corridor carpet - just this part should say enough about how much the staff cares about the customers - see attached image
