Great hotel in the heart of Gion

Couldn’t have picked a better hotel if I tried for my stay in Kyoto. All restaurants within a 13 minute walk. All attractions to see close by via public transport. Safe, clean, great private spa can’t speak highly enough about my stay here.

Beaware before you book. The location is great. There are some annoying thing about this property. If you get the room thst sleeps 4 . There is a hall light in the apartment that comes on each time someone moves or walk in the hall. Due to the fact that it is small space, the light will shine when you are sleeping and will wake up people each time. We had only one plate in the kitchen. There is loud annoying noise buzzying at night. The air conditioner works but it is not powerful. These issues made the experience frustrating Positives are: location, walkabilitu of the srra and rrom was modern.

Hotel in great location. Feels more like an apartment than hotel. Comfy beds, pillows, soft blankets, living room with large sofa able to sleep 2, dining table, kitchen with dishes, pot, utensils, microwave, toaster oven. Family Mart next door open 24 hours. Walking to main downtown area only 15 min. Other restaurants nearby within 5 min. Washer/dryer combo machine in room very convenient, don't need to go outside for community laundry. Easy online check in/out. Easy to contact staff for help. Friendly staff helped me place order for take out food over the phone in Japanese and also helped me make a reservation for restaurant because the website wouldn't accept my name and phone number for reservations. Booked spa option. Spa was nice and clean and well stocked with towels and soap, shampoo, conditioner, face wash moisturizer and water. Spa included 4 shower areas, hot bath, cold bath, and sauna. Really appreciate the private booking so only our family has access and didn't have to share with others during our time. Really great hotel! Would come back again!
