Great space for a family - could have easily fit more than 4 in our unit. There was a pretty functional kitchen - well stocked with utensils but no supplies (pots and pans). Thankfully a very convenient and well stocked Family Mart exists right next to the hotel, and is open 24 hours. The location was great, being right next to a bustling market, amazing restaurants, and historical temples. Check-in process was a bit confusing because we arrived a bit early, but a staff member immediately picked up the phone to help us. But the washing machine in the bathroom definitely made up for it.

Lots of space with dining area and a tatami room. The bed is hard, pillows are flat, beddings are nice, found the pull out couch a little dusty but overall clean. Lacking bathroom amenities like toothbrush/toothpaste, face towel etc. Good location- near shops, restaurants, local attractions, quiet and safe area.

Location is helpful for walking to the Gion temples and the main shopping area. (10 mins walk to each). The hotel is on a quieter residential street with large apartment blocks nearby. Handy to have a Family Mart in the same building. Our street view room was okay, the layout was very strange but had everything you needed. Beds were comfy. Kitchen was tiny and very cramped. We stayed over a weekend and it did get noisy.

Great location in Gion and good sized flat. Went with my 3 teenaged children and the adults had our own separate room in the flat. It is a bit tight with three teenagers but still a nice place, good facilities, and excellent location. It is a mostly digital check in so pay attention to directions before you arrive.

It’s very nice and roomy, easy to check in with a friendly front desk, you will need a code which they emailed ahead of time to check in, when arrived we have been told that we need to pay 300 yen per person per day for tax to be paid at check in which seems to be pretty common in Japan. You will need to bring your own toothbrush and toothpaste, there is a family mart just beside the hotel, about 15 mins walk to the central city, bed are on the smaller size but comfortable,overall it’s a great stay.

Quite a central location and well kept property. Unfortunately we were provided with a room that was right off of the lobby and they couldn’t move us anywhere else. Manager cited being fully booked but I understood that the owner/GM was being strict and did not wish to accommodate. Rooms were clean and well laid out. Didn’t have an iron or vacuum which would’ve been nice. We had these items at a different property with similar set up. Spa was fantastic and luxurious.

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!!
