An absolutely wonderful boutique hotel in a great location in Kyoto. Very chic and modern, this is a great place to stay. The staff were second to none, always with a huge smile and pleasant demenour. They were also very helpful in answering all our questions. A truly memorable place to stay.
This hotel was fabulous. The staff very helpful and nice. The breakfast was excellent. The location was very walkable to many sites but out of the craziness of the tourist areas.
What an OUTSTANDING hotel. We are now spoiled for anything less. The room was exquisite. The decor, furnishings were beyond topnotch. The variety of ways to light the room - at the touch of a button were perfect. The bed was extremely comfortable. The bathroom was spacious. Throughout the hotel the environment was beautiful, serene, calm, quiet. The staff were superb. So quick to be helpful. Always welcoming from the young woman who rushed out to meet our cab on arrival, to the serving staff in the dining room, to reception. Everyone was excellent. The included breakfasts were great. Each day I ordered something different and every time it was cooked to my request. We had dinner at the top-floor restaurant one evening. Again, everything was perfect. I cannot say enough good things about this hotel. It is the best we've ever had.
Such a beautiful hotel! The Kyoto x Paris theme is playful and fun. We were catered to from the moment we arrived. All the treats in our room, including a special blend of tea & keepsake tote bag were very generous. The room was spacious with a luxurious bath & comfortable beds. The location is great for walking to temples, shopping, etc. Definitely worth a stay to make your trip memorable!
Wonderful stay! The staff were friendly, professional, and incredibly helpful. The hotel is beautiful, clean, and very comfortable. The location is perfect and convenient to everything. Would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it.
This hotel is so well situated in the city with easy walks to many of the sights and lots of restaurants and shops. The breakfast was delicious. The snacks in our room were plentiful and we were encouraged to take them with us to enjoy on our journey. We would return on our next trip.
