The hotel breakfast was so delicious with Japanese and Western choices. The traditional Japanese bath was great. Our room was spotless and comfortable. The staff friendly and helpful. I will definitely be staying again!
Wonderful hotel with very friendly and knowledgeable staff. The Public bath was great and a good spacious room. Very comfortable and close to area attractions and right on the path of the 50 bus from Kyoto Station.
Room was amazing (they upgraded us to a King Room), staff was amazing and very friendly. Breakfast was great but wish they had more vegetarian options and an omelette station.
Everything shopping was walking distance. Safe to walk around and find all the things you wanted and didn't know you wanted. Very clean and everything was easy and convenient to get to, whether by Taxi or bus. The hotel itself was amazing. The staff was so friendly and helped with what ever was needed. Will definitely stay again when I return to Kyoto.
We stayed at another hotel in Osaka and in Tokyo, but this was everyone’s favorite. Everyone enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the public bath was nice, too.
Love the water station and ice machines. The bathroom is small but functional and really nice bath tub. Room looks clean and bed very comfortable. Pillows a little hard!
Staff on the weekend were not as friendly as we expected- coming from another hotel from Kanazawa.
