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

Although a bit hard for our taxi driver to find (the entryway is a small alley), the location was SUPER convenient. Walking distance to several restaurants and we started our Japan journey with an easy 2 minute walk to Nijo Castle. The most important factor of this hotel is being centrally located within Kyoto. We were an easy bus ride to all the main sightseeing hotspots (Bamboo forest, 10,000 gates, Golden Temple, Kiyomizudera, Gion), shopping, restaurants and Kyoto Station. Highly recommended!

Staff was lovely, especially the gentleman who checked us in. He very kindly has upgraded our room free of charge and pointed us to area where we could help ourselves to local drinks and snacks which were all included- lovely touch. Room was beautifully decorated, and the bathroom was equipped with nice Toto, good size bath and lovely shower. The only criticism we had was that the bathroom didn't smell very nice, which put me off from having a bath. Breakfast was ok - very limited choice for vegetarian such as myself, but the husband enjoyed it.
