We had a wonderful stay. The hotel is truely special and the authenticity is next level. The staff are warm and welcoming, so lovely to return to each day - especially how they prepared tea and hot towels on our arrival. They organised an amazing massage for me, which was the perfect start to the Kyoto leg of our journey. This is Kyotos hidden secret.
