I loved this small hotel! It was clean and conveniently located. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The pastries and drinks were certainly appreciated after getting back to the hotel from a long day of exploring. The room was small but had enough room to lay out our 2 carry-on suitcases. The bath area was fabulous. Highly recommended!!!

It was my second time at this hotel and it was once again awesome. I really appreciated the new laundry setup where we could state which room we were in - a bit less stressful. I missed the pin set up this time round but it was still more organized this way. Bread I only got to enjoy once - still fluffy and delicious. Get the milk bread when you see it! They rotate options out!

Excellent option for Kyoto

Excellent location, near a subway station, shops, and easy eat restaurant and a bit away from all the madness of Kyoto. This hotel has a great vibe, the lounge eith music, free drinks and snacks, was a real bonus. The room was spacious and very comfortable. For the price, this was incredibly good value.

Great location! Not far from the station at all. In fact it’s so convent to quickly hop on the station and it’s only 3 stops from Kyoto station. The staff were amazing. The rooms were clean. They had bikes available for guests and we were able to ride bikes around Kyoto. I would recommend you stay away from the shopping area as you cannot ride your bikes or park there. My only con of this place is the rooms are extremely small. So it made it very difficult for us to open are suitcases comfortably. Despite that would highly recommend this place!

Incredible experience

The hotel was incredible. The staff were all wonderful - super helpful, spoke English well and were very helpful with everything we needed. The location is in a quite area but a short 10 minute walk to downtown and just a few steps away from the subway (connected to Kyoto Station). It was clean and comfortable, the lobby has complimentary tea, coffee and snacks 24 hours and free bicycle rental. The room is small like all in Japan but it was laid out in a comfortable way and you have anything you could ask for - shower is amazing. The only little downside for us was the pillows were very firm, and note that the bed itself is also quite firm and not bouncy or soft if you prefer that. All in all, wonderful experience - highly recommend.

lovely staff and lobby area with a selection of free snacks and drinks to get pepped up for excursions. the stroll to and from Kyoto's busier spots was easy and interesting, revealing lots of dining options. The neighbourhoods away from the main tourist draws are also well worth exploring and the hotel is well placed for several.

Reasonable

Good location near an underground station. Room was a good size. Pillows were far too hard and it was difficult to regulate temperature between the air conditioning and the duvet being too warm. Nice to have bread and soft drinks available all day long. It is definitiely a tourist hotel if that is what you are looking for. Laundry was challenging with it being very in demand and I felt the clothes were not cleaned as well as they could have been.

I was thoroughly impressed by the cleanliness of the room and the property as a whole, as well as how modern and comfortable everything was. The staff were extremely helpful and were always quick to greet me whenever I passed through reception. My only negative was that there is one washing machine and one dryer for the entire hotel, and they seemed to almost always be occupied. The one time I managed to use the washing machine, there was a three hour wait for the dryer due to the backlog. The only other option was to walk a few streets to a laundromat, and I wasn’t keen on spending my evening sitting in the laundromat.
