Absolutely beautiful place. 2 minute walk to trains. Not very close to restaurants but easy to catch an uber or go for a walk. You can hire a car right across the road. Coming from Australia, I found Kyoto extremely safe and so clean. Lots to see around the area. The rooms were very clean, staff were lovely. I would stay there again.

An excellent hotel. Clean, spacious, lots of gpod quality amenities, free snacks and drinks every day near reception, free bottled water in the room. Great, roomy bathroom with bath tub, shower, sink and toilet all separated. It also has a great location near the Kyoto station but a bit tucked away from the crowds which is ideal. Highly recommended!
