The hotel has a nice design and is appointed well, though many rooms have no view out the window other than a wall or interior hotel courtyard view. I did not find the hotel conveniently located in the city

Kyoto is fantastic. However for how much this hotel costs it doesn't meet the standard. Aesthetics are great, it's beautiful. However the eco clean is poor. Staffs knowledge of local area is disappointing. Also they do not advertise complimentary drinks at the bar. Which is not massively important but if you offer it tell the guests. No extra coffees other than what's provided. No laundry service. Normally this would be fine but for the cost of this hotel it's definitely style over substance
