Beautiful accommodation with all the extras. In a great location, walking distance to the market & lots of places to eat. We would definitely stay here again. The only drawback was the dryer took along time to dry, but the hotel provided a clothes horse which was handy.

Conveniently located in quiet alleyway. The hotel doesn’t have a staffed reception area so it’s not really a fully serviced hotel. Checking in etc is managed from another nearby hotel or support is via WhatsApp. Room cleaning and the usual amenities are provided.

Great!!

Lovely hotel. I wish we booked longer in Kyoto to stay here. The location is great and the service was exceptional. We would highly recommend this hotel. The luggage hold service until 8pm is a great option to take up, as you can then roam one last day without lugging your suitcases around before leaving for another location in Japan

Great boutique hotel with kitchenette and spa Sukie room. Location was very convenient and in a lovely setting close to the stream and river. The staff were very welcoming and helpful especially when we struggled With the machine machine, Rei and Jin deserve a special mention. It has a nice bar area but we didn’t get time to use it.

Our room was beautiful, modern and clean. Lovely view of the river from our spacious balcony. The beds were comfortable and room was quiet at night. Very convenient walk to many bus, subway, dining and shopping options. Only problem we had was using the dryer to dry some laundry, took 5 hours and still the jeans and 2 cotton tees were damp - needed better instructions in the welcome binder. Otherwise, a lovely hotel and wished we could stay longer, really enjoyed our stay! Alex in reception was also very friendly and efficient in checking us in and then escorting us to the actual hotel 2 mins away.

The hotel was clean, comfortable and quiet. It's in a good location near to shops, restaurants and bars as well as transport. Check in is 2 minutes away from where the rooms are but this is not a problem. Two small issues for us were: 1 We emailed the hotel about dropping bags before check in. The emails were not answered. When we called the number they gave us it was not answered. It was disappointing. 2 There was an unpleasant smell coming from the washing machine.
