The gold standard for accommodation and service - our second visit and the staff went above and beyond (including a room upgrade to show appreciation at our return). Room was incredible as was the general support and courtesies extended. Will stay with them again (without Expedia).

Loved our stay here while we were in Kyoto! Staff was so welcoming and friendly - the rooms were clean and modern. The location was perfect, close enough to walk to all the places we wanted to and on a very quiet street!

It’s a great experience trying the old-style rooms. Because you’re sleeping on the floor the mattress and pillow is stiffer than the average hotel ones, which we loved. Location is in the middle of everywhere which means walking to a station or a nearby busier area is about a 10 min walk.

Ideal stay in Kyoto

It was such a magical experience. To stay in a modern hotel converted into traditional Japanese room with modern amenities was such an experience. The location of the hotel was perfect since it was centrally located and easy to walk to train stations, restaurants and tourist spots. The staff were very accommodating and friendly going out of their way to cater to your needs. And as a bonus, the tea house setup by the lobby was perfect way to spend a quiet morning or cap up the long day with stories with your friends.

The staff were very welcoming, taking our luggage to our room before we arrived, as we had sent a couple of suitcases from Tokyo. Breakfast isn't available at the property but there are options nearby. The complimentary tea and coffee in the room was a nice touch and the room was in excellent condition. It was a delight to experience such a classic-styled room.

Great hotel!!

This hotel was super pretty!! Really good honestly and space was sizeable for Japan! It was a 5-7 minute walk from the bus stop so you do have to haul your luggage around but honestly a quick walk, pretty well situated close to some touristy stuff but far enough for it to be in a quiet area. My only complaint is the bathroom, it’s a bit small so I had to shuffle around to wash my hair and the curtain had a stain on it. But besides that everything was perfect!!
