We had a lovely stay at this hotel. It was right near a train stop that you need to get to kyoto station. Also great connections if you're going to Nara or Fushimi temple. Beds were really comfy too. Also want to say a massive thank you to Peter at reception who went above and beyond - we had issues with some of our luggage from a previous hotel and he was so attentive and made sure everything was okay.
